Why do you need a GMX D-5.1 multimedia speaker system? Because if you're playing Xbox, PlayStation or GameCube games without a GMX, you're missing half of the experience. By applying our 57-years of high-performance audio expertise to console gaming, Klipsch has added a whole new dimension to today's advanced video games.
The GMX D-5.1 is much more than just another video game accessory — it's more like a hidden weapon or savory cheat that helps you clear the level and beat your pitiful roommate for the umpteenth time.
What makes Klipsch speakers so special? To begin with, Klipsch is a REAL speaker company. We have been making some of the world's most sought after loudspeakers since 1946. And Klipsch is the market leader in high-performance home theater systems as well as a leading supplier of professional theater sound systems to the world's most quality-conscious cinema operators.
The GMX D-5.1 system is available in 120 and 230 volt versions and delivers unmatched dynamic sound with an astounding 108-decibel output through its 0.75-inch metalized polymer tweeter and 3-inch metalized fiber-composite midbass woofer. The tweeter is coupled to an exclusive Klipsch MicroTractrix® Horn. This advanced horn increases sensitivity while minimizing room interactions that blur the sonic detail and imaging of conventional speakers, and the ported enclosure further reduces distortion while boosting bass output. Each satellite is magnetically shielded to protect your television or monitor from interference.
The 6.5" fiber-composite cone subwoofer and built-in 100-watt FTC-rated amplifier round out the high-quality componentry of the GMX D-5.1 system. Together, the sum of all of the GMX parts reproduce video game soundtracks with more power, detail, and absolute surround sound excitement than any other multimedia speaker system available.
Additional features developed specifically for gamers include:
5.1 surround sound format decoding of Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic II and five-channel stereo allows gamers to take advantage of the advanced sound effects and sonic immersion available in today's video games
45 degrees of satellite speaker angle adjustment through a newly designed ball-joint pedestal allows gamers maximum flexibility in placement without losing the dynamic surround sound impact
SWS Link, a special jack for attachment of one or more Klipsch ProMedia SWS powered subwoofers enables full integration of additional subwoofers into the GMX system for added depth and power to the bottom end.
