Pros: Inexpensive and a good deal for the good quality, an all around good speaker set.
Cons: Compromising quality for price.

These are decent speakers, I will admit. They have very VERY very good sound for the price (Altec Lansing is an extraordinary computer speaker manufacturer) but I also think that you are compromising sound quality for cheaper speakers... In the end they...

Cons: limited output at higher levels

Altec Lansing has a reputation for making quality speakers for PC's, and the ACS33 is another great example. The ASC33 is a powered three piece system consisting of a " subwoofer ", and two satellite speakers. The satellites each feature a 2.5...

Cons: none that I can Think of

Cons: None come to light!

Pros: Detailed and Rich Sound, Low-cost, High-value
Cons: Weakest in the Mid-frequencies (a Minor Issue)

Pros: compact, manual volume control, crisp sound.
Cons: no bass or treble control, no control for sub output

Pros: Inexpensive quality speakers
Cons: Audiophiles may find sound quality inadequate

Pros: Cheap, Great sound
Cons: none, for what it is supposed to do

For under fifty bucks these are the best speakers. Arriving at school this fall I needed to a cheap high quality set of speakers for music and gaming. Having my home theatre close by I can plugin to that when I crave for more volume. Staples, the only...

Pros: Almost Indestructable
Cons: Weak Subwoofer

From recent purchase of these speakers, I have found serious problems with it. The wood encased subwoofer, weighing it at a good 7 lbs at least, is weak. It does not produce enough low end bass, until you crank up the sound level up to unbarable...

Pros: Quality Sound, Cheap, Space-Saving
Cons: Not Powerful, Loose Connection

Cons: hard wired.

I got these speakers as an open box special at a store for $25 but i saw them sold new for $30-40. I've been looking for a budget yet quality PC speakers to replace my awfully sounding generic speakers (MLi was the brand name i believe) and the sound of...

Pros: FABULOUS SOUND QUALITY
Cons: none so far

Pros: Inexpensive. Has a subwoofer. Good for low volumes.
Cons: Pump up the volume, and you've got a 80's radio.

I got this 3 piece set for an early christmas present, after I decided I just needed a subwoofer-set. This is a simple 3-piece set that has nothing special. Period. Its just like any other speaker set. The sound-quality is resonably good, and if you are...

Pros: Great sound, sub woofer, inexpensive
Cons: none

I had to replace our computer speakers because our old set burned to cinders in a moving van. Being short on funds, but high on expectations, I went to Best Buy and looked at what they had. After about two hours of pestering the sales clerks, I chose...
