    Klipsch ProMedia GMX A-2.1

    If I had to sum up the GMX A-2.1 in a single sentence, it would most likely be 'One of the best sets of stereo speakers I've ever heard'. For audio from two-channel sources, it's hard to imagine Klipsch's offering being beaten (particularly in the price range in question), the entire listening experience is an absolute pleasure and is genuinely all but impossible to fault. Be it CD or MP3, almost every track I listened to was given a new lease of life by the rich and colourful sound produced, it's the kind of experience that makes you want to revisit every corner of your music collection.

    Would have said lack of optical input was a con.

    Why? There's no surround sound decoder. Chances are the DAC in a high end sound card would be better in stereo as well.

    Some sources just have optical out, lack of it would stop you using that source.
