Klipsch Announce ProMedia 2.1BT Desktop System
Klipsch (UK) and Henley Audio announce the ProMedia 2.1 BT, the powered speaker system.
This redesigned version of the US maker’s original 2.1 compact package adds wireless Bluetooth connectivity. The ProMedia 2.1 BT consists of a pair of powered stereo speakers and an acoustically matched powered subwoofer, finished in black.
Each ProMedia 2.1 BT satellite houses an 8cm Klipsch MicroTractrix horn mid-bass driver directly below the 19mm PEI (polyethermide) tweeter and has up to 200 watts of power on tap.
As bass is non-directional, the subwoofer can be conveniently placed out of the way – it just needs to connect to a mains socket and the satellites then connect to the subwoofer – leaving just a pair of compact speakers on display.
The Klipsch ProMedia 2.1 BT demands little in the way of desk/shelf/table acreage, yet is said to bring spacious stereo sound, deep bass.
The Klipsch ProMedia 2.1 BT is available in the UK now, priced £279.99 SRP via Henley Audio.
