Altec Lansing IM600

Advantages: Portable, good volume, lightweight
Disadvantages: none

...After looking around for ages I finally decided on this based on many reviews of many products online and from talking to friends etc. I am very happy with my purchase. The IM600 is lightweight, easy to fold up and carry around in a rucksack/handbag. While plugged in to a socket, your iPod charges as you play it, and when you use it away from a power source the lithium ion battery kicks in (up to 8 hours playback apparently, although I have never used it that long). The sound quality is as good with or without the power supply, which I was really happy about. It also comes with a remote control which is handy and can be used from a good distance away! To top it all off it also has a built in radio and you can preset up to four stations. So all in all I really recommend this product! I have no complaints at all!...

Altec Lansing UHP 306

Advantages: Great sound quality, strong cord, carry case
Disadvantages: Price

...After my Sennheiser CX 300's snapped a friend gave me his Altec Lansings. At first they did take some getting used to as they are bigger than the CX 300s, I would prefer them slightly smaller. Background noise isn't a problem but initially you may find the silicone tips take a bit of wiggling about to get them to fit exactly if you want them to block out all background noise. You'll get used to the positioning very quickly so it won't be a problem for long. The noise isolation level is 16dB which as far as I'm aware is more than those of the CX 300 which I think is around 12dB. If you need more than 16dB there's also a Professional set which have a noise isolation level of 26dB and generally higher spec. The cable is a cloth cable making the durability greater. The earphones also come with a pouch to store them in and several sets...

Altec 5100

Advantages: Clear Crisp Sound (CCS) and Ultra Stylish
Disadvantages: Cable is too short

...though they were £10 more expsensive than the Creative Branded ones, Altec Lansing is a better company and actually make their own speakers. Unike creative and logitech who just brand stuff (WHITE LABEL) The box itself weighs about 10kg or less, and all speakers and wrapped well in plastic bags, and surrounded by polystyrene. The dimension of the units are as follows; 2.25" W x 2.5" D x 7.3 H Satellite 6.4" W x 1.9" D x 2.6" H Center Speaker The above satellites have two 1" neodymium micro drivers. 6.5" W x 13.5" D x 12.0 H Subwoofer Two 4" Long-Throw Woofers Each item in the box feels like it is well made, and also very strong. Not Platicky Plastiky. Also included is a Neat looking Controller (wire Unfortunately) But it has the following 'Power On/Off, Mode selctor, Master, Center and Surround...

iPod speakers

Advantages: Portable and lightweight
Disadvantages: You have to be very careful with them.

...the instructions don't tell you and if you put it in the wrong way it gets stuck in there! 5) A major design fault is the fact that when the speakers are charged via the batteries or mains supply it constantly charges your iPod and there is no auto-turn off to stop it doing this! I have found the more that my iPod is charged the quicker it runs out of batteries so I find this very annoying and unhelpful. Customer Service I can fault the design of the speakers but I cannot fault the customer service team at Altec Lansing. Every time I have rang the company they have been very polite and helpful to somebody who is on their fourth set of speakers and I have not had to wait hours in a queue listening to music with the occasional "please hold". Another plus is the fact that the call centre is not based in India and so you a helped by an experienced...

Altec Lansign 5100 5.1 speaker system

Advantages: Light weight, Compact design, Stylish, Amazing sound quality
Disadvantages: Power cable could be longer as well as the controller cable

...of metal and plastic, and doesn't look or fell tacky or cheap. There are 5 speakers in total, one of which is the centre speaker. This is much more powerful and louder then the satellite speakers, 22 watts instead of 7, is best posited right in front of you. There is also a subwoofer, which is pretty impressive for its size. The sub provides amazing bass and low frequency sound that can cause the floor to shake. There is also a controller that allows you to changes the volume level, bass/centre, treble/rear and what mode the system is in Stereo x2, 4.1 Gamming or 5.1 sound. I mostly use always use it in 5.1 sound mode or Stereo when I'm using my headset. The sound quality is very good; it's sharp and crisp. There is no distortion when played loud either. When using the speakers you have to take into consideration the subwoofer. At home in...

More Like a Hi-Fi With a PC Tacked On

Advantages: Snazzy design. Very compact. Excellent sound
Disadvantages: Quite expensive just for PC use. No other inputs limit their application

...tiny and very stylish silver and charcoal aluminium-framed loudspeakers. Of course, at this stage he forgot to mention the 50-watt floor standing sub-woofer (yes Sue M, it goes under the dog!), but even so, it was tempting. So I got a set of my own ? Altec-Lansing 2100 multi-media speakers, for just under £80. No doubt some Herbert will now tell me where you can get them for 50 quid, but no-one likes a smart-a***, and anyway, I?m not at home to Mr. Boastie, OK? INSTALLATION These truly do represent the real meaning of Plug and Play. You plug ?em in and play ?em! The sub-woofer, which has its own built-in amplifier, is mains-operated. All low voltage wiring routes through here first. The stereo co-axial cable from the PC sound card?s output socket plugs in here, and each of the ?satellite? speakers also, with a clear...

Review of Altec Lansing MX 5021

Superb Speaker System

Advantages: Great sound, great design, easy setup
Disadvantages: Bass can be a little difficult to get just right

...--What made me choose these?-- Quite simply it was the look and design of the entire system. I had recently bought a flat panel screen for my PC and the general speakers that came with my computer did not only sound awful, but were beige - not in-keeping with the general design of my room. --Design-- As the look and design of this speaker system was my primary reason for splashing out on these, I thought I better start and explain this. I was able to see this system set up in store before I bought, and I would recommend that if you are thinking of purchasing these you try and see them in their full glory first. They truly are a work of art. You can tell that Altec Lansing have really spent time in designing these speakers. You can always tell the difference between products that have been set a budget and then designed within...

Review of Altec Lansing 2100

Awesome sounding combined with excellent looks

Advantages: Trendy looks, Excellend sound/build quality
Disadvantages: Perhaps the remote control

...with simple, yet useful on/off and master volume operations. It has its own cast alloy stand too for on the desktop. A wireless remote would have been nice as I tend to use my laptop in the garden at BBQ?s with all attached, but very good additional perk all the same. Manufacturers Support: I haven?t needed to contact Altec with regards to this product, but I have looked on their .com website and this is very useful. You can download manuals/info/Q&A etc and their site is also very well designed like their product. Overall Verdict (And Value for Money): The MSRP in USA is $99.95 according to Altec Lansing themselves which I think is very reasonable for what you get. I can?t remember how much I paid in GBP sorry. Personally this is an outstanding bit of kit to slap onto a PC, worthy of any PC where sound is imperative (gaming...
