A Very Loud Endorsement

byatara May 3, 2000
16 Helpfuls 17 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 1 Comment
Pros Superior sound quality, excellent tone range
Cons No external volume indicator
Recommended it? Yes

Aaahh... There's nothing like settling down for a game of Mechwarrior and making the windows shake.

These speakers were purchased for me over a year ago, and if I had to purchase another set of speakers today I would not hesitate to go with this brand. Of course, there's no need for me to... Read full review »

These speakers are better than the ones for my stereo!

Pros cheap, subwoofer, good sound, easy controls
Cons none
Recommended it? Yes

When I first connected my Altec Lansing speakers, I was amazed at the high quality sound that came from them.

The speakers that I previously had connected up to my computer were the ones that came with the computer and were not top of the line. I decided that I needed better speakers and... Read full review »

LOUD bang for the buck ;)

Pros inexpensive but very effective
Cons none
Recommended it? Yes

I purchased the Altec Lansing ACS 295 speakers about nine months ago for my new Dell Dimension computer (which, by the way, I also really like and feel like I got a good price for). But the speakers ... what can I say?

I really can't get the volume beyond halfway of its potential because... Read full review »

Pros great subwoofer, excellent sound quality
Cons bad customer service, refurbished set does not function properly
Recommended it? Yes

I bought these speakers from Egghead.com when they were refurbished. I think I made a big mistake. When I got them and plugged them in they sounded great. That subwoofer ROCKS! I mean, the power in them can really blow you away if you're a serious gamer or if you just like to use them for MP3s.

Big Name....Big Expectations?

Pros Great sound, Great look
Cons Workmanship, Durability and adjustability is poor
Recommended it? No

These speakers came with my computer package that I bought in August 2 years ago. They were great speakers; I have to say the sound quality is really good, they looked really nice and they were fairly easy to put together, install and get to work.

Unfortunately I guess my expectations... Read full review »

Good sound, questionable quality

Pros Good sound
Cons Small annoying problems
Recommended it? No

I've had my Altec Lansing 295's for two years now (and they're still working); however I can't give the best review of these speakers. They produce good sound for their cost (I don't remember how much I paid for them), but I've had a couple small problems with them. My first is with their wires;... Read full review »

Is this stereo sound?

Pros stereo sound
Cons sound breaks up a tiny bit when volume is high
Recommended it? Yes

When my brother had purchased these speakers I said to him "Steve turn the stereo down" and he said "that's the computer" and I raced upstairs to see the amazing small compact size of them then I saw the this big object under the computer and heard the bass and I was simply shocked by the amazing...

Pros crystal clear sound with rich bass and powerful treble
Cons can't get the controls to work; not digital (this was before digital came out)
Recommended it? Yes

I received a set of AC295 speakers nearly 2 years ago with my Dell Dimension computer system, and I must say I have been thoroughly impressed. These speakers retain their crystal clarity even at deafening volumes. Unfortunately, I have not been able to figure out how the volume control knob works... Read full review »

Impressive sound

Pros Good Lows, decent highs, an overall crisp sound
Cons no midrange
Recommended it? Yes

I am not sure of the reputation of Altec-Lansing when it comes to computer speakers but I am definitely impressed with the 295's that came with my Dell. I mean you can really crank them up and get full range sound. As most people have already said, the subwoofer is great. The whole system sounds... Read full review »
