Gigaworks T40 Series II or Klipsch Promedia 2.1

Oct 16, 2010 1:25AM PDT

I really enjoy bass but i don't necessarily need my teeth chattering. I want to hear and feel the thump from the bass but not so heavy that it drowns out the mids and highs. Ive done some research but i get mixed reviews on whether or not the Gigaworks can provide a clean heavy bass (not exactly sub-woofer quality but still great). Also Klipsch is a known high quality brand and i'm hoping to use these speakers for a long time. If anyone here has owned or heard both i would love your input, if you haven't then any advice can help.

I've also selected the Bose companion 2 series 2 as a possibility.

Don't know about Gigaworks but I have the Klipsch

Promedia 2.1 and it's served me well for quite some time. I don't game but I do enjoy music at reasonable quality. It's really a matter of adjusting the bass to the right level as any sub-woofer can get muddy sounding. My main home speaker system is still a pair of old JBL L65s ( a studio monitor series) that spoils me but the Klipsch are nice on my PC. I don't need or want more than 2.1. Good luck in your search but it's your ears that should do the judging.
