  1. I currently use the Klipsch Pro Media 5.1 system. I’m very interested in the HD 500 system and your critique has made my decision to purchase this system all but done.
    I also use the Klipsch ProMedia DD-5.1 pre amp. How would this system be connected to my computer? Would I need an amp/pre-amp and eliminate my sound card? What power are the sats rated for?
