Is there any difference between this model and the Klipsch - ProMedia 2.1 Speaker System at Best Buy which for some reason says "Best Buy Only"?

Best Buy lists the wattage as 55w RMS. Klipsch website indicates Peak Power: 200 Watts total system. Amazon.com indicates wattage @ 200w.Satellites: 35 watts/channel @ 5% THD, 1KHz, two channels driven Subwoofer: 130 watts peak (50 watts @ 5% THD, 50 Hz continuous) Best Buy asks $149.99. Amazon.com shows $139.99, $79.99 "used", free shipping. I bought "used" from Amazon. One piece of styrofoam packing was missing from the box, but did not affect the condition of the speakers whatsoever. I am very pleased with my purchase. The bass is so solid, without any boominess.

No, there is no difference. Best Buy is the only one of our retailers that sells this system.

I bought mine about a year and a half ago. Most likely if the 2.1's sound better to you, give them a shot.

I'm sorry but I have no idea myself. Did you try calling the company and asking them. I hope that you find that answer. The system itself is great. Both of my sons have one and I just purchased one for myself yesterday.

I wouldn't get the Klipsch due to the low quality of the preamp. Within months I started getting a popping/hissing and sometimes cutting out of the sound in one channel or the other. Turning the volume dial back and forth would resolve the problem, for maybe 15 minutes. Then over months, the subwoofer slowly got quieter. Turning the sub all the way up and I could barely hear it. I just dumped my ProMedia 2.1 in the trash. Never heard the z623, but it couldn't be worse than the ProMedia 2.1. I now went with Micca MB42X speakers and a Lepai LP-2020A+ amp. Sound quality is MUCH better, not so "forward" and tiring to listen to like the ProMedia 2.1. I wouldn't get the Klipsch due to the low quality of the preamp.

Big difference. I have the companion II's for my PC and although they are great sounding speakers you won't get the strong bass that gets produced from the acoustimass system because of the sub woofer. I have had both bose systems for about 4 years now and love them both and have not had a problem with neither one.

Yes, you get two brand speakers along with all the hardware, just as if you were buying it at Best Buy!! They sound great in my boat!!

No need to buy anything else. It comes with the full set of speakers and wire (2 front, 1 center, 2 rear, 1 subwoofer) for 5.1 surround sound. Sounds great! Have 2 systems, 1 of them for over a year.

Klipsch is Klipsch, the Royals Royce of speakers. I've DJ'd over 30 years and good sound is my #1 priorty, there's no comparison. If you like live sound then this horn loaded system is for you. Hope this helps, Chuck

You are correct those are the series 4 version of the speakers. I choose those because of the built-in wall mounts/stands on the series 4...and the price difference didn't hurt either. I can't tell the difference in sound quality.

I've never compared them, but the Logitechs rock. I own both the Z623s and the Klipsch Promedia 2.1s, and the Logitechs are noticably better, especially on the bass end. The z623s offer 330 watts of peak power (200 watts RMS) and a 7 inch woofer, so be prepared to get plenty of complaints in you're in a dorm. :)

I Have both and they both sound great! Klipsch go a little louder, but I have no complaints with either. My Klipsch are about 8 years old and still playing, Logitechs about 2. Go by price.

That's all in the "ear" of the beholder. I matched my JBL with a couple of older Bose front speakers we had and then puchased a set of Klipsch rear speakers I got a great deal on. It sounds good to myself and my family. I think you would need to purchsase the JBL and see (Listen) for yourself. If it doesn't meet your needs (Sound good with the primus speakers) then send it back. But I've been happy with it.

I have two sets of this particular speaker system. Mine work great!Hmmm, don't tell anyone okay? I did a dumb thing and my speakers wouldn't work! So I order new ones...same brand.Look at the bottom part of your monitor (screen). There is a little icon for "speaker" on the lower right side of your computer screen.By accident, I turned my speakers off. I thought there was something wrong with my old Logitech speakers. So? I ordered more. Guess what! There was absolutely nothing wrong with my old speakers BUT! These are much more clear and the volume is louder.I couldn't be happier.

I would buy longer higher quality cable and check with Best Buy or Fry's about what speakers might be compatible. You also may need a more expensive system.

Ok, got a response this morning. "Kirby,You are correct in the speakers being the only difference between these models of Home Theater systems.Bob E.Again, thank you for contacting Onkyo and Integra USA Product Support, if you need further assistance feel free to call us at:..."So there we go. Right now Amazon lowered the price of the 7300 to $550 the 6300 is $500. I read a review for the 6300 that the surround speakers are a little big, which I think I see in the picture. So I'm not sure yet, what I'll do, if the extra $50 is worth the speaker shape difference and the stands. What are you all thinking? Ok, got a response this morning.

Hi, there is no difference in the speakers themselves, just the price.Thanks,Rusty

Both are excellent speakers, but my vote has to go to theZ623s: more power; larger, stronger woofer; better warranty; treble and midrange are comparable. I own both, and I'm happy with both, but the Z623s come out on top in my opinion. And don't forget that they're ususally less expensive. I bought both of mine around Christmas of 2012 at Best Buy. Paid $89 for one, $99 for the other. Check out this review: http://www.thinkdigit.com/forum/reviews/135928-five-2-1-speaker-set-comparison.html

I also just bought it from Best Buy for the $799. I added some black friday Polk Audio 1/2 off speakers to the order to hit the $999 for 36 months too. I can't be happier.....well I will be when they get around to delivering it later this month.I clicked on this link because I was looking at both these models as well, as Vanns.com had them both for $999 and I was wondering if it was worth getting the other model over the 60C9.

You are purchasing two, but be careful. If you want to make sure youre getting the right speakers and the best quality i would personally go to your local best buy!
