The ProMedia Ultra 2.0 personal audio system is designed to deliver sub/sat level performance from the simplicity and portability of a two-speaker setup. It was created for consumers who want superior, full-range sound quality but do not want to give up the space or run the wire required for a subwoofer.

This speaker system easily connects to Apple Ipods and other mp3 players, laptop and desktop computers, and portable audio/video devices such as televisions, CD and DVD players. Listeners can also simultaneously feed a laptop PC signal and an MP3 signal to the speakers for mixed sound playback, making this system an excellent choice for both multimedia presentations and entertainment.

"Respected for its accurate and impressive full-sized speaker systems, the company is marketing the 2.0 as a stylish, accurate and low-priced alternative to Altec, Bose, and JBL offerings for the iPod, emphasizing that they provide comparable or greater accuracy and lower-distortion sound than these significantly more expensive competitors."

—Jeremy Horwitz, iPodlounge Backstage, November 2004

"The entrance of Klipsch into the iPod market can only be a good thing for iPod customers, as the company's attention to accurate and low distortion sound for the dollar will spark some much-needed iPod speaker competition on both quality and price. Affordable, enjoyable to listen to, and attractive, Klipsch's ProMedia Ultra 2.0 speakers are a welcome sign of things to come in the iPod market."

—Jeremy Horwitz, iPodlounge Backstage, November 2004

"Designed to match up with mobile CD and DVD players, iPods and other MP3 players and laptops, the $100 ProMedia Ultra 2.0 system focuses on packing dynamic sound into a portable package."

—Eric Dahl, PC World, November 2004

"Compared with other portable speakers, the 10-inch-high satellites have superior imaging, crisp and detailed high to midrange response, and suprisingly good bass. They faithfully reproduced the airiness of Jeff Buckley's Hallelujah and the detailed sound field on DVDs like The Fifth Element."

—Eric Dahl, PC World, November 2004

"We've heard many 2.0 speakers in the past that came in all sorts of shapes and sizes with unique technology, innovations and designs. Suffice to say, these Klipsch speakers blow them all out of the water!"

—Terence Stephen, HWM, January 2005

"Bordering on audiophile bookshelf audio, the Ultra 2.0 system will leave you shaking your head in disbelief and secretly scanning the listening area for the hidden sub unit!"

—Terence Stephen, HWM, January 2005

"The Klipsch ProMedia Ultra 2.0 speakers are simply a joy to listen to. You'll be fooling friends and family (and yourself) into thinking that the subwoofer has been cleverly hidden away somewhere in the room. First class drivers and design result in first class sound here — simple as that!"

—Terence Stephen, HWM, January 2005

"These things, for lack of a better word, rock. In fact, they sound so good we can't refer to them as PC speakers, because it would almost be insulting."

—LIVEdigitally, January 2005

"Virtually all sounded great. Unbelievable great. Almost like my home audio system great. Disconnecting them from my laptop and returning to the tinny noise of the internal speakers was a physically painful process."

—LIVEdigitally, January 2005

"All in all, these satellite speakers are just about the best you're going to find at any price. And of course, Klipsch's name backing them up means you won't have to worry about your warranty or the speakers falling apart on you. Sound-wise, the Klipsch ProMedia Ultra 2.0 is extremely competitive with anything available on the market at the moment, and at just under $100 for the set, you'd be hard-pressed to find anything of comparable quality for the same price."

—Jason Joyce, About.com, February 2005 

"I love the clarity and presence of these terrific speakers. You get a clean, lively sound throughout the mid-range and good detail in the highs, but the overall response is smooth and quite well balanced. I wondered if I'd regret not having a subwoofer as part of the package, but there's plenty of depth here. Listening to classical music is an absolute delight with these speakers — dynamic range transitions seem to just leap out at you in the sound field. I couldn't be happier with the quality of sound, or the value."

—BH from San Francisco (ProMedia Ultra 2.0 Owner)

"The sound is pure and crisp, the speakers are light and portable and they are only $99. These speakers are a must buy."

—KL from Indianapolis (ProMedia Ultra 2.0 Owner)

"These speakers are clean, crisp and have all the great sound one expects from Klipsch speakers. Those who like the Klipsch sound will not be disappointed."

—DV from Fargo (ProMedia Ultra 2.0 Owner)

"Klipsch has won me over with this sleek new product. I hooked these babies up to my Airport Express amd DVR; I have never heard such quality. I've also been using them as studio monitors for my recordings. A very versatile product; balanced mids with adjustable bass."

—CM from Honolulu (ProMedia Ultra 2.0 Owner)

"Klipsch means superior sound in the music world and once you have heard your favorite music on the Ultra 2.0 ProMedia speakers you will think you have died and gone to heaven. Simply stated they sound Heavenly!!!"

—LN from Milwaukee (ProMedia Ultra 2.0 Owner)

"The sound from the Klipsch Ultra 2.0 is very impressive. They are without a doubt the best PC 2.0 speakers I have ever heard. I have owned plenty of PC speakers as well as my friends and family over the past 11 years. The sound is rich and has no issues with filling my room. The bass works well and is strong and tight considering there is no sub."

—PC Junkie "Euripides" from New York City (ProMedia Ultra 2.0 Owner)

"I liked the clarity of the highs and surprisingly decent mids, for computer speakers these are definitely a cut above and are nowhere nearly as overpriced as those ridiculous (and abysmal) Bose speakers. Klipsch has a long and illustrious history of manufacturing up to audiophile grade speakers, and some of that quality has obviously been transferred to these ..."

—Eduardo Nietzsche from Houston (ProMedial Ultra 2.0 Owner) 

"The Ultra 2.0 produces some of the most live-sounding output we've heard from any value-priced two-piece system ..."

—Don Labriola, PC Magazine, March 2005

"The 6.5-inch-deep satellites ... generated well-defined, uncolored output in the higher bass registers and were never muddy or boomy. Kick drums sounded punchy and tight, and we could easily hear the pitch of every note in a well-recorded bass line."

—Don Labriola, PC Magazine, March 2005

"... from the standpoint of pure sonic accuracy, the Ultra 2.0 is the best $100 system we've tested to date."

—Don Labriola, PC Magazine, March 2005

"... power is what the Klipsch ProMedia Ultra 2.0 is all about. Eschewing a subwoofer, this two-speaker system still delivers un-cluttered, high-fidelity sound for your laptop, whether it's for music, DVDs, or games."

—John Quain, LAPTOP, April 2005

"Surprisingly, we were able to drive the speakers to near deafening decibel levels with minimal distortion.

—John Quain, LAPTOP, April 2005

"... if  you want a pair of speakers that can stand up to even the closest listening and yet deliver enough clean sound from your MP3 player or notebook computer to raise the neighbors' hackles, this speaker set can't be beat."

—John Quain, LAPTOP, April 2005

"What impressed me the most about this system, given the price, is the overall balance between the treble, midrange, and upper bass — a rare trait in inexpensive computer speakers."

—Dan Frakes, Playlist, April 2005

"If you're looking for a truly enjoyable set of speakers that will fit on your desk, won't clutter the area with extra cables and a subwoofer, and won't break your budget ... the ProMedia Ultra 2.0 are highly recommended. I don't think you'll find better sound in a package this size for the price."

—Dan Frakes, Playlist, April 2005

"The bass from these speakers was exceptional for their size and specification; they filled quite a large room effortlessly."

—Nick Mailath, PC User, September 2005

"The highs were crisp and clear, adding to the overall good quality of these speakers."

—Nick Mailath, PC User, September 2005

"They're easy to set up, have a small footprint and offer great performance."

—Nick Mailath, PC User, September 2005
