Pros Great sound. Great price.
Cons Can't think of one yet.
Recommended it? Yes

I was doing an online search for a new speaker system to replace my old ACS22 when I came across this particular model priced below $35. I was initially eyeing that rather impressive looking ATP3 system at the local Best Buy store but was disappointed after discovering it wasn't part of last week's... Read full review »

That Disconnected Feeling

Pros Decent 2.1 speakers for under $30, better than most speakers in this price range
Cons Overpowering sub in low volumes, underpowered sub in high volumes
Recommended it? Yes

After having a nice set of 2-way speakers for my PC for quite some time now, I was wondering what options I have in this new day in age. Although 4.1 and 5.1 speakers came to mind, I would hate to find a way to arrange the rear speakers (as most people like me don't require surround sound while... Read full review »

Pros Great Price, design is pleasing on desktop
Cons subwoofer should be more powerfull, alot of wires
Recommended it? Yes

I got these on sale for only $12 at Staples after mail in rebate. I was somewhat skeptical of the quality if they were on sale that much, but after I tried them it just proves to me that if you can get something cheap at a store, it doesn?t always mean that its worthless.

I box included... Read full review »

Pros Great sound and design
Cons Haven't found one yet

Why I have them

I usually start my reviews with the reason that I have the product in question, and with the AVS 300 it is a funny story. I wanted a new computer, so I built my own to get away from the HP Pavilion I had. I tried to reuse as much as I could, and that turned out to be very... Read full review »

Don't let the price fool you

Pros Great sound, Great price, volume and power on speaker
Cons Left speaker is "hard-wired" to the right speaker
Recommended it? Yes

Recently the speakers I had started to not really work as good as it should. I've had it for a few years so I figured it would be a good time to get another set. I started to look around and really became interested in these speakers. Not only for the low price but also because of the great sound... Read full review »

Pros The sub is really good for a 35$ set of speakers.
Cons The satellite speakers
Recommended it? No

First off, this is my second pair of Altec Lansing speakers, so I had an idea of what to expect when I hooked everything up.

Sub
What really startles me is that the sub for this speaker set is pretty good. It's not plastic (except for the front cosmetic covering), but is instead... Read full review »

Nice Speakers, Very Low Price

7 Helpfuls 8 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 2 Comments
Pros Speakers provide a great, "fill the room" sound for a low price.
Cons No Headphone Jack, Short Cords
Recommended it? Yes

This is a nice, 3-piece speaker set. The two main speakers are about the size of a softball, and the woofer is about the size of a car battery. They provide a wonderful, rich sound that "fills the room."
2 Problems:
1. These speakers do not have a headphone jack. This is a problem if your... Read full review »

These used Altec Lansing speakers were given to me 2 years ago by my computer class teacher. I'm very happy with the sound quality of these speakers!

This speaker system looks great and sounds awesome on my computer. Great bass and clear sound. The speakers come with built in amplifier... Read full review »

Pros Great Price, Excellent Sound and Bass, Stylish
Cons At low Volume Bass overpowers Satellites, High Volume Satellites overpower Subwoofer
Recommended it? Yes

I purchased the Altec Lansing AVS300 2.1 Speakers about 2 years ago, and have been completely satisfied by them time and again. When my Compaq Branded JBL's died on me, and I didn't have much cash to spend, but I wanted some boom for my my buck. I found the Altec's at Staples for a mere $35, and... Read full review »

Pros Good bass and overall sound quality. Price.
Cons Slightly clipped midrange.
Recommended it? Yes

I bought a set of AVS300s a few weeks ago to upgrade an old set of generic speakers on my PC and, honestly, I wasn't expecting much - I just wanted something that was a little better than I had.

After I had set them up, I was quite surprised at the sound quality - the bass is solid and... Read full review »
