Customer Rating: Summary: INCREDIBLE SOUND IN A TINY PACKAGE Comment: THE ACS33 SPEAKER SYSTEM CAME WITH THE PC I BOUGHT WAY BACK IN 2001. THE PC WAS AN OFF-BRAND AT THE TIME, KNOWN AS ABS. AFTER RESEARCHING MY OPTIONS FOR BEST PC UNDER $1000, I OPTED FOR THE ABS MAINLY BECAUSE THE REVIEW RAVED ABOUT THE INCREDIBLE CLEAR AND ACCURATE SOUND FROM THE INCLUDED SPEAKERS. I STILL HAVE THAT PC AS A BACK UP, BUT I CONTINUE TO USE THE ALTEC LANSINGS LIKE A SMALL BOOKSHELF STEREO SYSTEM. I HOOKED THEM UP BY SIMPLY PLUGGING THEM INTO THE HEADPHONE JACK ON MY MP3 PLAYER, AND THE SOUND IS JUST INCREDIBLE. IT PUTS OUT 30 WATTS TOTAL, AS MUCH AS SOME BOOKSHELF STEREO SYSTEMS COSTING HUNDREDS MORE! THE BASS IS INCREDIBLE...I HAVE IT SITTING ON AN AREA RUG SO I DON'T GET EVICTED. THE HIGHS ARE SO ACCURATE, AND CAN BE TWEAKED USING THE EQ ON THE MP3 PLAYER. MIDRANGE IS A BIT LACKING, BUT THIS ALSO CAN BE COMPENSATED FOR A BIT WITH YOUR EQ SETTINGS. IF YOU CAN FIND THESE USED, GET 'EM! Customer Rating: Summary: Altec Lansing Portable Speakers Comment: I own these speakers which are on the wife's computer. I own 2 sets of another speaker system which one set is on my computer AND one set is on my GigaBeat MP3 player. I also have one set of a third style for my portable DVD player. All work very well AND sound GREAT!! Enough Said! Customer Rating: Summary: One of my favorite speaker sets Comment: I have tried to find a pair this size that beats these speakers, but have been unable to do so. I've had them for years and still use them daily. They're perfect for portable CD players, MP3 players, and my laptop too. For my PC I like a louder sound and the 3-piece set w/ subwoofer is ideal, but for everything else, this pair is hands down the best I have yet to encounter in its price range. Customer Rating: Summary: NIce clear crisp sound! Comment: I've had these speakers 3 yrs now, they never fail! Sound is great bass is not too loud, Highs are decent, I use them at work all day listening to my ITunes and no problems thus far! Customer Rating: Summary: Bangin' Bucks Comment: I have used a set of these Altec Lansing ACS33 speakers since mid 2000. They have only on rare occasion been turned off. My computer is on day and night, only to be turned off by a power outage, when the power goes out in a thunderstorm. The speakers have always sounded just wonderful, and have had many comments directed at them by visitors, as to the quality and quantity of the sound coming out of those "small things". It doesn't matter what is shot through them - whether it be music, game sound effects, online talk shows, digital HDTV sound, or Paltalk audio - they always sound awesome.
Unfortunately, just two weeks ago a power outage knocked them out. Electronic things most often die at the moment when they are powered on, and so after six years of almost constant use, they died. Now my neighbor in the apartment next door won't be pounding on the wall anymore. Once in a while I've forgotten that he's there, and got the walls a shakin'. Oh well, must shop for some new speakers.
I doubt very much that I'll find any new speakers that offer so much bang for the buck.
