Product Review

Probably good for gaming, just ok for music

by   cjdavia ,   Mar 17, 2008

Pros:  Very nice looking, lots of base, easy to set up

Cons:  Too much bass distorts the midranges

The Bottom Line:  I'd bet that you can get similar quality for less by going with Sony or a lesser known brand

Overall Rating: 3/5 stars
 

Author's Review

I purchased this set over the weekend because Altec Lansing has a reputation for creating great PC speakers, I liked the way they looked, and I liked their price.

After setting the speakers up, I listened to some of my favorite music. Unfortunately I was disappointed with how it sounded. The bass was overdone and sloppy, there was an over abundance low freqs, which caused the midranges to sound muffled to me... sort of like I was at a concert and listening with my hands over my ears.

I was really motivated to make these speakers sound better because the store where I purchased the speakers is an hour away. I tweaked my equalizer settings by lowering the lows and upping the highs. This helped quite a bit but I was still not happy. I exchanged them for the Altec Lansing FX4021, which costs nearly twice as much.

I am very happy with the FX4021s. Right out of the box the base sounded cleaner and the mids, while not perfect, are much, much better. A few tweaks to my EQ made them sound even better.

My opinion is that 4121s are a good looking, affordable set of speakers made for gamers and people who prefer a lot of bass and don't care too much for the midrange/vocals. If your preference the midrange, I'd go for the 4021s.
