An Excellent Bargain!

by mojobobo , Apr 16 '00
Pros: Excellent sound at an exceptional price
Cons: Digital volume control may disappoint some users
The ACS-48's can often be found for around $100 and are well worth it. The bass is outstanding and the satellites produce very clear and rich sound.

The bass has control for the amount of bass produced while the right satellite speaker has...

by sargataur , Dec 09 '02
Pros: Just skip to the main section
Cons: Further down

This is the one you want.

by luckyboy , Jan 26 '00
Pros: price, sound quality, VOLUME!
Cons: sub volume knob is in an in-convenient place
I got my ACS48 almost two years ago and I have been nothing but pleased with them. They are the most powerful speaker in the "three speaker" category that Altec Lansing makes. They put 20 Watts per channel and and 40 watts to the Subwofer!...

by BenAlbright , Nov 23 '00
Pros: Great sound

by mike304 , Mar 14 '00
Pros: incredible sound
Cons: not good highs
I can't begin to say how much I love these speakers. I have a lot of MP3's on my system and sometimes instead of listening to my main system I'll just open u[ winamp and take in the sound from my great computer speakers. The bass these speakers put out...

Pros: Very Powerful Speakers With Little Distortion At High Volumes
Cons: Volume Controls Not Placed Well

These little things?

by randypar , May 07 '01
Pros: Sound like a great pair of large speakers. Cheap.
Cons: Plastic tweeters are ear piercing but decent. Controls not so good.
These little things are making this sound? You must be kidding!

These speakers look laughable especially when you take the little grill covers off. You will see a fairly small mid range and a very tiny little plastic tweeter. You will see 4...

Convert your computer to your home stereo system

by clappazon , Apr 16 '00
Pros: Small and powerful, energizes your MP3's, good value for your buck
Cons: Lacks in aesthetics of design
This is the perfect low end way to get the advantage of great sound from your computer. For the relatively inexpensive cost ($160) these speakers bring MP3's alive and quickly transform your computer to the perfect jukebox suited to your taste.

best computer speakers out there

by sunchinkim , Oct 30 '01
Pros: POWERFUL SUB, nice satellites, two audio input jacks
Cons: bass adjust hard to reach, no headphone jack, strange controls
*setting up - setting up is very intuitive. there are two audio inputs, allowing you to connect these speakers to two audio sources. the bass adjust is behind the subwoofer, so each time you want to raise/lower it, you have to fiddle behind it. there...

by rkanti , Apr 13 '01
Pros: Amazing sound system, great subwoofer, great deal, more than worth its money.
Cons: none i can think of. maybe you need a good soundcard, thats it.
I have these speakers for almost 2 years now, and they have been great! They have delivered what was asked for, woke up the neighbours when they were too cranky, drowned the dump trucks noise and all the time with great quality of sound. I wouldnt...

by m015094 , Mar 08 '02
Pros: Great sound. Good durability. Not very expensive.
Cons: Flimsy cords.
WOW!!!

I've had this speaker system for over 4 years and it has surprised me ever since I purchased it in 1997. I was originally looking for a computer speaker system that was "good" but not too expensive. One of my friends had the ACS45's...

Small package, HUGE sound...

by miconis , Nov 30 '00
Pros: Size, Power, Clarity..too many to list
Cons: Somewhat weird volume/power controls
I picked up my ACS48s over the summer to add to my new second computer I built. I use these things mainly for listening to MP3s at extreme volumes and playing the occasional computer game. I used to own a pair of ACS45.1 speakers about 2-3 years ago but...
