Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Altec Lansing 2100 2.1 Computer Speakers (3-Speaker, Black & Silver)Customer Review: THE "Deal Of The Decade"-- on sale! Summary: 5 Stars
If I told you what Amazon charged me for these (with FREE shipping) right before the holidays--they'd probably censor this review...so I'll just say "WHAT A DEAL"!!! I purchased them just for the awesome price, so I wasn't prepared to "quibble". After connecting them to a aging "boom box", loading a nice-sounding CD, and cranking them up...I was floored!
The bass is awesome; Total undistorted volume is very good; Highs are plentiful although a bit "metallic"; and the midrange is fair. I agree with the previous reviewer's observation regarding the "remote control" volume and power unit. What ever happened to a simple rotary-style control...but the "cool" slim design of the desktop drivers make that arrangement impractical. I did not notice the peculiar behavior of this control though.
Connected to a nice PC sound card, this speaker set kicks tail. At $80, you may wish to consider other options, but on sale--the Altec 2100 is very fulfilling for a typical computer audio setup, and presents some good "utility" options for other small audio devices such as "Walkman" radios and portable MP3 players used at home.
