Manufacturer's product description
Altec Lansing's AHS602 features SRS 3-D Audio technology, an audio enhancement technology that provides a realistic and spacious listening experience through headphones. This award-winning technology retrieves the spatial information from surround recordings and restores the original three dimensional sound field. Games and movies have never sounded better!
Advantages: Cheap.. Disadvantages: ..and not that great!
...Judging the packaging alone, the AltecLansingAHS-502 appears to be an impressive and expensive headset. When in reality it costs a mere £19.95 (including VAT) - the deception goes no further than that though.
While it's a big ole set of cans, the quality of the build feels somewhat flimsy. The huge size definitely works against it - although the closed cup design keeps in sound and external noise out, your ears start to sweat after only a few minutes of use. Not at all pleasant.
The microphone is attached to the left earpiece by what is essentially a flexible piece of plastic. This can be moved into any position for optimal placement, but the cable doesn't follow the plastic very well, which gives a pretty messy look.
Microphone recording quality was a saving grace overall, as my voice was picked up loud and clear above background...

VERDICT
This is a very good headset but in retrospect I would have preferred the AHS-202 model which is worn in the conventional way, on top of the head. I don't care about my hair style....

Advantages: great sound quality, high volumes, durable Disadvantages: unclear set-up
...I got AltecLansing 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 AltecLansing you've picked a winner!...

I received these speakers as a Birthday present in March from a friend. I was thrilled with them as I had been desperate for a docking station or speakers to play my iPod on.
The speakers:
The speakers are very attractive and compact yet produce a more
I didn't see this when I seeking to a full throated bass multimedia speaker system for my PC. But, my one of my friends got Altec Lansing FX6021. I felt a great music experience there.
It's really easy to setup and get on with. FX6021 consist with... more
