Review of Altec Lansing 641 by Deviant1

Advantages: Great speakers,amazing clarity,awesome quality.

Manufacturer's product description

When it comes to audio, Altec Lansing is fanatic. The company won't accept anything less than pristine sound - neither should you. That's why it created the Altec Lansing 641 system. With 400 watts of power, this five-piece surround sound system cranks out crisp, accurate sound - whether it's screeching tires or screaming guitars. A truly flat frequency response guarantees you'll hear every effect precisely as it was created. And high-efficient Class-D circuitry ensures the two 6.5" woofers pump out bass that rattles your bones. With nuance and subtlety comparable to an audiophile-grade home theater system, there's good reason these elite speakers are the top choice of audio and gaming enthusiasts everywhere.
