Does anyone else have an idle hum or hiss on these speakers when not playing music? Any suggestions for how to fix it?

I bought a set of these in 2014. Probably the best sounding computer speakers I'd ever owned. Unfortunately the died two weeks outside the warranty period. Like dead. Would not power up. Called customer service who did not act surprised and seemed to indicate it was a common failure. Cost to repair plus shipping was 3/4 of the original cost.

Never again.

Quote from MangekyoSharingan :
For Californian, it is better to order from Amazon because they charge taxes on the original prices. With Amazon you will pay $79.99 plus taxes for $105.91 versus Costco $79.99 plus taxes for $129.99. On the other hand, Costco offers better warranty I think. 🤷🏻
You pay 32% sales tax?

Quote from boles :
This sub is 8Ω and based on some research i think the original is 6Ω. Did you do this replacement? Does it sound comparable to the original?
I did a replacement on 3 sets I own. All had their surrounds torn. The replacement looks to be a better quality and sounds about the same or a bit less. I didn't measure the ohms on the oem sub but I doubt it's 6 ohms. Home audio are normally 8 ohms. Car audio can be 6 ohms like the JL Audio w6 series.

Quote from flighterpilot :
I've bought three pairs of these. The first two's amps kicked the bucket. I always noticed it was kind of warm on the plate. The third set doesn't get warm at all, but yeah, the old version sounded noticeably better. I even tried using the old satellites with the new sub/amp, but no change to the sound quality.

I also noticed the new set's power LED will slowly flicker off when unpluged, whereas the old would gradually fade off. Not sure what that means, if anything. I do like that the new ones come with a right-angle plug though.
Well I mean,,
I just now did it to see & watched mine \\not flicker-but fadeout dim..

Thanks OP for finding and posting this deal. The price is certainly very appealing for this klipsch system

To give a different perspective, around Black Friday 2020, Costco had a similarly priced deal for this klipsch system but I don't recall exactly what I paid.

The satellites sounded really good: they got loud and the audio was very clear. The sub on the other hand, it's performance was disappointing. To me it felt like it never produced notes deep enough for my satisfaction, it felt more of a mid sub to me. Each time I listened, it left me wanting more from this sub. The sub cabinet also buzzed quite a bit. I did exchange it out but the 2nd system also buzzed similarly as the 1st.

What I ended up doing was getting a $60 monoprice 8" sub, combined it with an inexpensive set of desktop powered speakers. The total cost went to $120. The audio quality and monoprice sub's response was dramatically better than this klipsch system. So, for me, the additional cost was well justified.

And I bought mine a year before you did, and they are still going strong. In fact I just bought this again from this sale as a backup. You hear countless stories of people owning these for over a decade much more so than your story. And at this price you will never buy a better set, guaranteed. And anyway, if you buy it from Costco, you can return them years later if they break down. Speakers are not on their electronics exclusion list of non-returnables after 90 days.

Why make a product like this and not have S/PDIF or RCA in? Stupid.

I received the system yesterday and been playing a variety of videos. Unfortunately the bass is completely over powering the music & dialogs get muffled becos of this. I did try various settings using my creative THX complaint sound card, moved the sub woofer grill away from the corners, didn't help much. Any suggestions? Is this could be a faulty unit? TIA

Ordered these just now. I was going to get the other deal with bookshelf speakers to replace my 20 year old infinity speakers that I just refoamed but these seem like the smart move and comes with a sub. I don't need an amp
On my desk any longer and a bunch of extra wiring to make those bookshelf speakers work. Plus saves a lot of desk space.

Have had these a little over a year. Fantastic computer speakers. My one issue was that I got two bad ones before Klipsch finally sent me one that worked properly and it took them about 2 months to do so. But once you get these pumpin, you won't regret it.

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?
These aren't suppose to be turned off. Turning them off actually breaks these speakers over time.

Quote from Naramie :
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.
These speakers aren't suppose to be turned off. Even Klipsch says this. Turning them off shortens the life of these speakers.
