Altec Lansing ACS 45.1 2 Speakers

Pros: great value,great sound
Cons: Bass adjustments are on the underside of the subwoofer

I've owned these speakers for quite a while and they are awesome! I've looked at a lot of Bose speakers and they just don't have the same bang for the buck. These can actually be turned ALL THE WAY UP without distortion. I purchased these for my ...

Pros: great sound, deep rich bass. small footprint
Cons: wires get in the way. sensitive connections

Rip. Tear. Plug. Play. It's that easy to set up the ACS 45.1 POWERCUBE and get rich floor-shaking tones from your crappiest audio source, and at less than $100, it's a steal.

I've owned this baby for more than 2 years now and I'm happy to say...

Pros: Nice, clean sound.
Cons: Sub volume control on back/hard to reach.

This speaker system makes high quality sound for a very decent price. The db rating is quite low. Combine this with a fairly low wattage system, and you get a speaker system that will max out easily if you aren't careful (esp. the sub.)

The...

Pros: Good subwoofer bass response. Reasonable cost.
Cons: Volume control failed within two months.

This speaker system would be a good value if it weren't for the design flaw with the volume control. Post-purchase research revealed this is problematic with this speaker line. They are currently available at brick-and-mortar stores for less than $55....

Pros: Good, solid 3-piece speakers
Cons: A real power button, volume knob, and a headphone jack would be nice

Hey, I received these as a gift so I definitely cannot complain! Compared to the cheapo $15 speakers I was using before these sounded incredibly. However, I do have a few things I don't like about them. The sound is more than adequate, but the sound...

Pros: Great price! No Wall Wart!
Cons: Slightly muddy bass response, and sub-volume is not easily accessible.

Well, as anyone that has read my other reviews knows I am a consummate audiophile. A recovering engineer, entering the professional music industry - yep that's what I am. And in the course of Seattle's recent earthquakes I lost my old digital studio...

Pros: Inexpensive, decent sound for games and music, excellent value, powerful bass.
Cons: Noisy, bass is sloppy, auto power on/off makes annoying "pops" and "fizzes".

Whether or not I would recommend these speakers to you depends on what you're looking for and how critical you are of sound quality. If you're an average joe, you'll probably be quite happy with these. If you're an audiophile or you already own nice...

Pros: it has really good bass and treble.
Cons: the short wires don't give much space to move them around

This setup is great for the people who like to listen to music. It has great bass for the people that like music with a lot of bass and it is also good for the people that like to hear what the singers are actually saying. The fancy dials are great for...

Pros: Loud, Great Sound, Small, Low Price
Cons: only 3 speakers, not enough adjustment

These speakers will really blow your mind. The size of these little beauties will impress you when you first turn them on. You will instantly ask yourself how this much sound can come from something of such a small size. I myself am truly impressed with...

Pros: Big bass sound, and crisp highs
Cons: none

I first purchased my Altec/Lansing speakers for my college dorm room. I have a full stereo rack, but being from out-of-state, means no good sound system --- because I don't want the postal service or the baggage "throwers" from the airline I fly to...

Pros: Affordable 3-piece speaker set with great speakers and a subwoofer
Cons: None, I love it!

Just leave it to Altec Lansing to provide some of the best audio equipment around! The ACS 45.2W POWERCUBE Three-Piece Speaker System features an earth-shakin, ground-breakin 20-watt wooden subwoofer for maximum bass power! The speaker...

Pros: Great sound, inexpensive, free of lots of knobs.
Cons: no headset port

The ACS45 series of speakers by Altec Lansing came with my recent ABS computer purchase. I have been especially pleased with them, as well as the rest of the product shipped by ABS (read my earlier review...).

The ACS45 speaker system is as...

Pros: Great sound at a great price!
Cons: None

The Altec ACS45.1 Speaker set offers a serious punch for the dollar. This speaker set is not the most expensive out there, but it does match the competition in quality. The Altec ACS45.1 set packs some serious base when it comes to those explosive...

Pros: Awesome sound, great price
Cons: Cloth material on front can rip/snag

Forget the stereo, if I really want to crank up the tunes I just put a CD in my computer. The Altec Lansing Power Cubes and subwoofer give out great sound. With the subwoofer turned up, the whole house shakes and I have actually had things fall off the...

Pros: Great Sound, Easy to Use, Relatively Inexpensive
Cons: Cable Clutter common with all multi-piece speakers

This product really works well with my computer system. It provides an excellent frequency response range and can go to relatively high volumes with little distortion. The digital control on the top of one of speaker is reasonably convenient. As with all...
