Pros cheap, great sound, nice design
Cons sub volume control inconvenient to get to
Recommended it? Yes

I was lucky enough to have the option of upgrading my speakers when I purchased my desktop just over a year ago. Needless to say, I jumped all over that oppotunity and got the ACS 44 Altec Lansings. What a joy it has been!

As a long time user of 2d sub-10 watt powered computer speakers, I... Read full review »

A Few Good Speakers

byteufel Dec 29, 1999
10 Helpfuls 11 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Nice Bass
Cons ?
Recommended it? Yes

Not long ago it was quite a novelty to find computer systems with subwoofers. Times have changed and the subwoofer is the way to go if you want good sound. For anything from stereo sound in a game to even listening to mp3s, these speakers are great. I find myself spending more time in front of them... Read full review »

Pros full, rich quality sound
Cons can't think of any
Recommended it? Yes

I bought the Altec Lansing ACS54 about a month ago. This 5 piece computer speaker system is awesome!!! It has a 4-inch sub-woofer and 4-speakers which provide for surround sound. It only cost me about $85 or so which may seem like much for computer speakers, but with the quality of sound that comes... Read full review »

Small yet Explosive Sound

Pros Great sound for your money
Cons none
Recommended it? Yes

Over the summer, I got a new desktop computer with most of the specs I wanted. I also got a really good sound card and wanted to put it to good use. So, I went speaker shopping at my local Comp USA. They had a variety of speakers, which I got to listen to. The problem was that the speakers cost... Read full review »

Better than a stereo and less than $50

bySturm May 8, 2000
6 Helpfuls 7 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Good sound, good volume, less than $50
Cons Uhhh..., the volume knob is on one of the speakers. Does that count?
Recommended it? Yes

Back when I turned fourteen, I needed some sort of stereo, as we kids get into that sort of thing at that age, and being a bit of a computer nerd at the time, I decided I would put all of my CDs on my computer (.wav files back then) but I needed better speakers, so I went out with fifty five...

Pros EXCELLENT quality sounds, inexpensive price
Cons Location of power/volume dial, shorted wire problem potential, location of subwoofer...
Recommended it? Yes

I'll start off by saying these are the best PC speakers I have owned. I've also heard a lot of other speakers at various computer stores, computer fairs and from those owned by friends/associates and I still prefer my ACS 44's. The base is clear and strong and the overall sound is very high... Read full review »

Alekhine8's rating of Altec Lansing speakers

byalekhine8 Jun 5, 2001
5 Helpfuls 6 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Great product by Altec Lansing. Very clear.
Cons The wire connecting the two small speakers is somewhat short.
Recommended it? Yes

I purchased these speakers with my computer that I purchased through http://www.mpi-pc.com. They cost me around $45.00 and I think they are great. You get a subwoofer with volume control and two small (yet pretty powerful) speakers.

I have a Aiwa stereo system, and while it only cost me... Read full review »

Smaller package, bigger punch

byGreenSpleen May 25, 2000
5 Helpfuls 6 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Low cost, more sound for your money, convenient size(easy to fit in small places)
Cons Only 3 speakers, not five
Recommended it? Yes

I was on a budget for my newest computer. Since I was building it myself, I was able to get each product separately. These speakers first of all are Altec Lansing. In my opinion computer speakers don't get any better.
When I got my speakers, which came thought the mail, I rushed to open the... Read full review »

A Great Quality Set

5 Helpfuls 6 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Good sound quality, easy cabling, seperate subwoofer volume
Cons Small hiss, volume can be hard to adjust, high price.
Recommended it? Yes

The ACS44's are a huge improvement over the tin-can speakers most of us are used to. There was nothing better than hooking these up to my computer and blaring my music and games. Good quality speakers for the price at which I got them.

The wiring is quite easy on the speakers, although I... Read full review »
