Altec Lansing ASC33 PC Speakers: Somewhat adequate for basic computing needs, but not for music

byGr8ful Feb 1, 2006
48 Helpfuls 49 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 2 Comments
Pros Inexpensive, takes little room to set up
Cons Bad sound quality, unshielded sub, low power output
Recommended it? No

When it comes to computer speakers, everyone has different needs. Personally, I prefer a full 7.1 surround system with good bass for gaming and movies. Others may simply want a good stereo set for listening to music. My mother just wanted to hear, "You got mail" so her needs are very limited when... Read full review »

Expensive sound at a reasonable price...

Pros Inexpensive; great sounding bass with very decent mids-highs...
Cons Design could be a bit nicer, and the controls aren't very good...
Recommended it? Yes

At way less that $100 these speakers are a real steal. I purchased a pair about a week ago, and they sound just great. I had been using some really old Altec Lansing?s before these (my old ones were pretty crappy), and I thought I would see what they had to offer in today?s market.

Altec Lansing Speakers

Pros Sound like some top end speakers at a much lower price.
Cons Just wish I had surround sound.
Recommended it? Yes

One of the few sets of speakers that sound good, yet still have a low price, are these pair of Altec Lansing speakers with subwoofer. The speakers offer a nice range of highs and take you to its strong point- the midrange sound. The subwoofer offers a low sound that can be ranked right up with some... Read full review »

You get what you pay for

Pros Stylish design and easy to hook up
Cons Poor sound, cheap quality, difficult controls
Recommended it? No

Although these speakers sell for under $50, I expected a little more quality. The subwoofer feels as though it has nothing inside of it. The single volume/power dial is awkwardly placed horizontally under one of the satellite speakers. It is actually difficult to turn them on and off.

Simple, Inexpensive speakers with BOLD sound

byungalicious Jul 1, 2001
3 Helpfuls 4 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Compact, inexpensive, strong and bold sound
Cons Possibly overpowering bass, stiff volume control.
Recommended it? Yes

In hindsight, I paid too much for these speakers that I got from Outpost.com for $41.66 because now they're on sale all over the place for around $20-30. Despite this, these speakers impressed me right away with their very strong sound. Their size is deceiving of the strong bass and clear sound... Read full review »

Great Sound At Low Prices

Pros Good Sound - Very Inexpensive
Cons Looks & Controls
Recommended it? Yes

I got these puppies from Best Buy for about $50. They're a great pair of speakers, nicely complimented with the subwoofer. I would rate these speakers very high on sound quality and price, but somewhat lower on design and controls. The midrange sound is the perfect mix in between the low bass that... Read full review »

It's okay for me

5 Helpfuls 6 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Okay for the price. Reliable. Solid.
Cons Sound quality could be better.
Recommended it? Yes

I think that this package makes a sound uneven: there are low thanks to the box, Treble graces the 2 small pregnant, but the medium seem frankly absent. The sound seems unfair ... it lacks the "middle" ... I said that I am not a music expert, and that I had previously 2 pregnant fairly good (not... Read full review »

Low-End 3-Piece that gives lots of Bang for the Buck!

bycinemafia May 23, 2003

Pros Clean highs, deep and tight lows
Cons No mid-range, no EQ, no headphone/line output, short satellite cabling, annoying volume...
Recommended it? Yes

I got these speakers for free when my father-in-law upgraded to a set of Altec's ATP 3's and gave me his old ACS 33's as hand-me-downs. What a deal! These speakers do not sound cheap at all, especially considering their online price of $45 and less.

The satellites put out some crisp... Read full review »

good deal

Pros good sound.
Cons can not plug headphones on it.
Recommended it? Yes

The altec lansing ACS 33 give me a very good sound for mp3's, and games. You should listen to it, when the guitars begin exploding with wild melodies and the counterstrike machineguns fire on my opponents:) It is so much better than speakers without a subwoofer.
The bass is really good, not... Read full review »
