Rating: - Good..but a problem
The sound that comes out of these is fantastic...but for some reason...one of them now sounds tinny...I don't know if it is the amp or what.
But you can still crank these up and they sound great...I just wish they all worked.
Rating: - Great Speakers
I have read alot of reviews before buying the Altec Lansing 251 computer speakers, some good some bad. I think these speakers sound and perform great. The room shaking bass is what I was looking for in my speakers. I paid a little over 50 bucks for these speakers and I think it was a fifty well spent. I'm not an audio professional , but I do know a set of great sounding speakers when I hear them.

If you buy this for your computer and you complain about the speakers being distorted, thats usually why 5.1 sound cards was invented. Buy one for 50$ at an entry price and use the 5.1 slots for full 5.1 sound without distortion. Don't worry about the bass being distorted, the software from the sound card will let u set the controls on your computer. Find the right setting for you and the speakers will work much better then it did with crappy intergrated sound cards.

To my suprise however I began getting a horrible crackling noise. Upon closer inspection 3 of the sats have tears in ... Read More
Rating: - Totally worth your money! AWESOME!!!
I give this one 5 stars. The sound is truly amazing. I couldn't believe the clarity on this 5.1 system. Whether I'm playing a video game or just listening to music on my computer, these speakers make me feel like I'm truly there in the action. The one thing I love about these speakers are that you can "plug and play." It can be plugged into virtually any device that produces sound like an MP3 player and the sound quality is great. I would definitely recommend this company to others and I would ... Read More
