I use these with my bedroom TV to supplement my 5.1 Vizio soundbar with wireless sub and rears. I combined them with a remote control line leveler to give volume remote control function:

https://www.newark.com/mcm-custom...st=50-8394

I then plugged both the Promedia speakers and line level controller each into an Amazon Alexa smart plug and created a group for both called "Klipsch". I can now power both on/off simultaneously via voice, tablet, computer, etc and then use the remote from the line leveler to control the volume on the speakers. Just be careful and set your volume on the speakers and line leveler evenly so not to overwhelm. I turned the line leveler down and set the speakers to roughly 40% of max. Works like a charm.

To sweeten the pot, I purchased a used Klipsch Promedia 2.1 bluetooth volume control pod off Ebay. Only difference from that pod and the one on this set is the addition of bluetooth. For those that do not know, Klipsch released a set of the 2.1 Promedia's awhile back that included bluetooth capability but did not have the THX certification. Bluetooth functionality sat in the control pod but for some reason those speakers lacked the THX cert. If you do go that route, just make sure you search for a pod with the VGA style connector for these certified speakers and not the din connector from the older style (I think they made both syles with bluetooth).

I now have a THX certified set with power on/off functionality, bluetooth and remote control. That being said, I could have prob gotten another speaker set with most functions inclusive for about the same price I spent here, but prob not the same quality and no the fun in that

Hope this gives some folks ideas HF and GL!!

These are still the gold standard for a no frills 2.1 setup in the price range.

I really wish Costco's site showed in-warehouse purchases. I bought this a month/month and half ago and don't know if I paid $80, $90 or $100 for it and there isn't a way to call and ask either.

They can reprint your receipt at the store, just ask customer service. You most likely got it from the past Costco deal for $90, though.

How do people deal with lack of power button?

And I would love a desktop puck control with headphone jack. Are there anything people recommend for that with these?

I never thought about using them as a TV speakers. How did you hook them up? Any adapters needed?

I have to agree with you these are great speakers. The pair I have is at least 10 years old, maybe 15. Looks like they've been slightly redesigned since then, hopefully the quality didn't go down. You really can't beat them for the price

keep doubting when I see a deal pop up on these. Lots of reviews on Costco saying these didn't last long/failed pretty quickly. Anyone have any counter to that?

For my set up I have a UPS with battery that has a Master port and a couple controlled by master ports. Basically when the device plugged in the master port is turned off, the other controlled by master devices also shutdown.

When I turn off my computer it also shutdowns my speakers and monitors.

Do these only have 3.5 mm plug if I wanted to connect to a TV?

Only thing I would guess is that there may have been some bad batches of these made. I've had mine for at least 4-5 years without any issues and bought them for my parents at the same time. I did hear that at some point they started making these "cheaper", but I think that was before I bought them, and as mentioned, I never had any issues.
