Any solution for Klipsch promedia system

[chrislin2k]

Hi everyone, I have one Klipsch promedia 2.1 complete set and an additional sub-woofer. I checked the price for satellite speaker at Amazon and i founded it is totally not worth it(2 satellite speaker and 1 control i could buy a new system).
Just wondering any compatible satellite speaker that I can use for the extra sub-woofer that i have? or any other advice? Thanks.

You can't just connect any passive speaker to the back of the sub.
Using that subwoofer requires a connection to the promedia satellite that has the controls and jacks on it. They use a 9 pin Dsub connector to connect them..
If you know some audio electronics you might be able to figure out how the pins in the connector are used but without that the sub might not even turn on.

Thank you for your answer. I found this controller from Amazon.

Say if I get this controller, am I able to use different brand satellite speakers?

Doesn't look like the connectors would work with your sub. Does it say on Amazon that it is compatible with the Klipsch?. Check the controller you already have.

So the idea is connect this controller into the sub from the sub woofer and get 2 different brand satellite speakers connect to the sub woofer as well. i hope this would work.
