SummitLink Replacement Control Pod Compatible for Klipsch ProMedia 4.1 Computer Speakers Wired Remote

I just love the convenience of having the controls of the Klipsch Promedia 4.1 literally at my fingertips. I can tweak and balance the levels from my normal sitting position without having to reach for the knobs on the speaker as before. My only complaint is the middle knob came slightly bent and turns wonky. Otherwise I'm perfectly happy with it.

Came defective.

I purchased this product to replace a Klipsch Promedia 4.1 control pod. It reproduces all the inputs/outputs and controls of the OEM pod, albeit not as nicely. The material quality is a distinct step down from the OEM components. The knob resistances are stiff, though they rotate smoothly. The enclosure is made of fairly light plastic that has an amount of flex and feels light and immaterial. The on/off button has a good click, but wobbles and feels light and fairly cheap. The cables look and feel like any other cheap DIN to DIN and 3.5mm male-male cables. Completely unremarkable, cheap cables. That said, everything works great. Plug it in, boom, my 17 year old "B" stock Promedia 4.1 setup is back in business. So while its not a premium experience, for the price, it might be the best available option to keep an otherwise unusuable setup going for a few more years.

My ProMedia 4.1 system sounds like new. I thought it was the decades of heavy use taking their toll on the speakers themselves, but I was mistaken. The Klipsch "control pod" was the culprit. After swapping out the official Klipch control pod with this control unit, the subwoofer has that kick that I remember, and the satellites sound like a dream.I bought the ProMedia 4.1 (myself) when I was 12 years old. Back when "THX Certified" speakers on a computer was madness. You needed a dedicated audio card to get more than 2 channels. These speakers kept me going all throughout my schooling and beyond. I have a sentimental attachment to these speakers and I couldn't be more happy with this replacement control unit. I'm hoping it will bring me many more years of enjoyment from some of the best "computer speakers" ever sold.

If you need to replace the controls on your Klipsch surround system this does the job. It doesn't fit into the original slot, but I didn't want to replace my whole system since this sounded so good. My original was scratchy and cut out so I ordered this and got rid of the original. Plugged in perfectly and worked like a champ!
