My CD's sound like Cassette tapes!?!?
What I expected
I didn't expect mind numbing (blowing?) sound from these speakers, but I did expect something better than my Creative Inspire 4400's (a 4.1 set). I've seen quite a few reviews of these speakers in Hardware sites around the net so I took a chance on 'em... BIG mistake!

Small size, small price, small performance
The Altec Lansing 251 5.1 speaker set has been on sale a lot lately, tempting those keen to experiment with a 5.1 sound system for their computer for gaming and playing surround-sound music and movies.

I got home and set them up with my TV, my iPod, and my Dreamcast console. I especially...

You get what you pay for.
These speakers really sound good and have a great look. Like all speakers in this price range, you pay for what you get. The cords and plugs are fantastic. No flimsy cheap cords in this package.
