Altec Lansing VS4121 2 Speakers

Pros: Nice design, easy to set up and use.

Cons: Cables a little short for my liking.

The Bottom Line: Cheap. Really cheap. $39 when I bought them. But the performance is on par with $100-or-more models. Nice bass and treble. Nice design.

Review: I needed to upgrade the speakers used on my home PC as the bass driver in the old units was past it's best. Mind you they were 11 years old, so go figure.
I cruised up and down the aisle in BestBuy listening to all the offerings from the $19...

Pros: Good price, easy to set up, excellent sound

Cons: None

The Bottom Line: Buy it without fear. As stated, good looking, good sound, good price.

Review: I had a pair of cheap tinny sounding speakers, you know the kind, the ones that come with the PC; the kind you use only because they are there. After discovering Internet Radio and having music while I worked at home, the miserable sound of the old...

Pros: Crisp, clean audio from a great value package

Cons: Bass a bit boomy but can be adjusted with the bass control

The Bottom Line: Great sound at a great price. Easy to install. Can handle rock n' roll with ease.

Review: I'm in my forties and I love classic rock from AC/DC to Zeppelin. I've had some Altec's before these and lost those in a house fire. So I was ready to go speaker shopping again after a few months of listening to the one tiny speaker that's in my Mac...

Pros: Very good sound, bass and treble controls, high max volume, easy to connect

Cons: A little larger than I would have liked

The Bottom Line: Anyone looking for computer speakers will appreciate the sound quality, controls, and price of the Altec Lansing VS4121 Computer Speakers.

Review: I purchased the Altec Lansing VS4121 Computer Speakers as a replacement for my Altec Lansing VS2121 Computer Speakers, when they stopped working properly, one month ago...

Pros: Ease of setup.

Cons: For rock only. Acoustic music doesn't reproduce on these at all.

Review: These speakers are not suitable for acoustic music of any kind. I've spent a month trying to get my jazz collection to play properly, to no avail. I had to tweak each cut, it took half the song to do so -- and the sound never came out right. No mids...

Pros: Bass is very loud, and sound can get very VERY loud

Cons: Life of speakers is rougly 1 year.

The Bottom Line: These are exceptional speakers, but will only last 1-2 years if you play your music quite loud.

Review: These speakers give you quite a bang for your buck. I have never owned a set of speakers in this price range that can get as loud as these. And the bass on the speakers is exceptional. I almost always have to have the bass half-way up because it is...

Pros: Satellites are good sounding, clear highs and mids.

Cons: Boomy subwoofer and high price tag. The VS2221 is a better choice.

Review: Good points:
1. Satellites are good sounding, they sound crystal clear, the highs and mids are great. Highs and mids are not muffled.
2. Nice design.
3. Easy to set-up.
4. Has treble and bass control in one of the satellites...

Pros: Good clear sounding satelites

Cons: Keep the subwoofer at one quearter maximum.

Review: Accoustic music played quite well, not like BOSE but its not bad. Rock music played the best. The sub-woofer booming must be kept to the lowest. Never go above one quarter or else it will be ruined.

Pros: Bass and treble controls, excellent sound, low power consumption

Cons: None that i can think of...

The Bottom Line: A truly remarkable system which delivers superb quality sound at an affordable system.

Review: I purchased this system a few months ago from Futureshop for $79.99CAD (MSRP was $129.99CAD)without the extended warranty BS. The price seemed right, and as soon as I fired it up, I found that wasn't disappointed , with rich, clean and accurate...

Pros: Great sound. Good build quality and easy setup. Well priced. Outperforms higher-end systems.

Cons: Takes some adjustment from factory settings. Tendency to give a fish tank or tunnel effect.

The Bottom Line: This is a good system for a reasonable price. There are probably better options out there but these will do the chore quite well!

Review: First things first, I need to let you know where I'm coming from on my review. I did not purchase these speakers as an *upgrade* to my sound system. More accurately, I purchased the VS-4121 as a *replacement* for a very high quality 5.1 surround...
