Altec ADA 215 PC multimedia speakers

Advantages: great sound quality, high volumes, durable
Disadvantages: unclear set-up

...I got Altec Lansing speakers about 5 years ago with the first family PC we bought. Since then I have moved them to 5 other PCs and they are the best I've even had. The set up is very easy, they work on any PC through the headphone plug although it is sometimes tricky to decide which cable connects the speakers to each other. The sound can be as loud or quiet as you want. The quality is glorious stereo and it more than rivals any standard Hi-Fi. If you pick Altec Lansing you've picked a winner!... Read review

Advantages: There are many advantages to the Altec Lansing 220. For instance they are very convienent and easy to use.
Disadvantages: I have been using the Altec Lansing 220, for a good six months know. I have not come across any disadvantages.

...The Altec Lansing 220 are a pair of speakers that work together. They are both easy to use and easy to install. The convience of the volume control position is better then any. No more searching for the volume control on your desktop. Just reach out and turn it. The convience of head phones is also incredible. You can plug you headphones into the side of the speaker instead of having to reach to the back of your computer. It's all right there is arms reach. The Altec Lansing 220 speakers are small and packed with sound. They are very affordable and I would recomend them to anyone who is looking for sound at a good price. If you are someone who likes to watch movies or listen to music from your computer then these speakers are made for you.... Read review

...First think that was apparent when i opened the box was the bose look they had about them, they definately made a good impression on me. When i found that the top speakers are disconnectable so that they can be placed anwhere around the room offering surround sound expanding from 2.1 to 4.1 sound which was a great idea on altec's part. But what good is this if they don't sound any? They do though, and not just good but crystal clear, they don't fuzz at high volume or crackle with high pitch sound which can be really annoying, and they have a peak power of 15W which will definately fill a room and be heard all around the house!. On the right speaker base is the control panel, where the volume, bass, treble and mode is controlable a very handy tool with a clear screen and an on/off switch so you dont have to strugle to the sub...
