Pros: Great sound, low price, very stylish design.
Separate bass, treble & volume controls
Cons: None
The Bottom Line: You can't go wrong with this system at these prices. It looks great, it sounds great and it will give you 2 spots back on your surge protector.

| jcosta01's Full Review: Altec Lansing ATP3W 2 Speakers |
I can't imagine that you will find a better sounding satellite system for the price of this system. Since I was burned a couple of times on systems costing twice as much I thought I would give these a shot for around $60 based on the great reviews these received on various sites. I was not disappointed in the least. They were simple to connect and look and sound great. Don't be fooled by the photos of the satellites into thinking they are too slim or lacking of substance to get the job done because the 2 small tweeters are forward firing and that is what you see see in the photos, but what you don't see in the down-firing 3" midrange driver located in the base of the satellites. This combination produces great natural sounding highs and mids.
The satellites are designed to sit up a bit off the table to allow for the sound to escape from underneath the satellites. The sub is more then antiquate and leaves plenty in the tank. For those reviewers that have complained that there either was not enough bass or too much, I suggest a software based equalizer like that found in Windows Media Player for all of your fine tuning needs. One thing I really loved besides the great overall sound is that this system uses only one power cord total and it is not one of those massive power packs that take up 3 spaces on your surge protector (you know what I'm talk about...). This is just a regular plug like the one on your TV.
This is a sweet sounding system that will not disappoint.
