A good buy and an ideal gift.

by roybird , Dec 05 '02
Pros: Relatively inexpensive; easy setup; small satellites.
Cons: Some distortion at higher volume.
Installation of this system is simple - the cables on the individual sats are color coded to match the inputs on the subwoofer. However, two of the colors are orange and gold, which they make look very similar - I was able to tell the difference between...

Quality yet affordable set of speakers, for you!

by wilsontam , Jan 26 '02
Pros: Low price for such quality.
Cons: Not enough WATTS and bass
Experience Installing and Using These Speakers:
The installation process is a breeze, the cables are all colour coded, by all means, there's no way pluging it into a different port. The power button is somewhat hard to reach, it's located at the...

Great sounds for a great price!

by androoos Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Jan 16 '02
Pros: The ultimate bang for the buck speaker system
Cons: Would be nice to have a higher power output.
I've owned these speakers for roughly one year. I have not been disappointed at all over the quality of the sound they produce. Before I bought the ACS54 system, I owned the generic Altec-Lansing two-speaker/subwoofer system that came with my Dell...

Altec Lansing ACS 54: The Gamers Power Tool

by drevil83 , Dec 26 '01
Pros: Nice bass and powerful crisp sound
Cons: No bass control
If you are going to buy these speakers make sure you have a nice soundcard, it MUST be 4 channel to get the true quality of the speakers out. They have a nice crisp sound and are very easy to "install" with colour coding to make connection of cables very...

Unbeatable Quality speaker solution!!

by erickn8318u , Oct 22 '01
Pros: Inexpensive, High quality, great sound, surround sound with good Bass
Cons: No real cons
I purchased my own computer 1 1/2 years ago, and at that time I didn't know much about 3D sound cards, 3D speakers, or anything. But I slowly became more advanced in computer use and knowledge. I began to realize that the on-board sound card and $12...

Altec Lansing ACS54 - BANG for your buck!

by fm_hunter Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Oct 04 '01
Pros: Right price, crisp sound, deep bass...YEAH baby!
Cons: Can't use 'em for a house party without some distortion.
More and more these days, people are turning to their PC’s for listening to and managing their music. With the advent of MP3’s and the price of hard drives falling like David Carusso’s career post NYPD Blue, using your computer as your home...

Where's that sound coming from?

by digitial , Jul 19 '01
Pros: Good sound, compact speakers.
Cons: A little expensive when I bought them.
Sound:
______________

These speakers put out great sound. I bought these speakers in April 2000, I paid quite a bit of money for them 149.99 Canadian or about 99$ US. The sub-woofer is 20 watt and is well sealed. This sub is only 4...

great for gaming or music

by Bornio , Jul 09 '01
Pros: surround sound, cheap, good quality
Cons: a bit of "carpet" noise
This set of speakers typically costs around $80. I bought mine for around $55 at buy.com, which offers huge discounts on all speakers, so go there first. The size of the satellite speakers is of course a plus; they're small, unobtrusive, and...

Very "Unique" use for these speakers

by nerys71 , Jul 07 '01
Pros: Awesome Sound and power for the price - Nice and small
Cons: I honestly can not thing of any.
Update - December 26th 2001

Just a note. if you mount these in your jeep or other vehicle like I did. the Din style plug that goes to the fromt left speaker with the controls. It tends to work loose over time. I had my speakers stop...

Not too shabby.

by volrath , Jun 29 '01
Pros: Affordable, Small.
Cons: No digital input, cords too short for me
I went to a store (I forgot which one) looking for Altec Lansing ACS56s. I was tired of listening to crappy audio from my computer's built in speaker, and my headphones were getting uncomfortable. I knew I wanted the ACS56s because they had digital...

And then, there was sound. And the sound was good.

by timm_inc , Jun 24 '01
Pros: Surround sound, inexpensive, Compact.
Cons: Only comes in black
The walls in my dorm room were vibrating, the change on my dresser was bouncing, and the structural integrity of my window was about to be compromised . . . my neighbors were blasting their music for both the east and west coast to hear. I had to do...

Rich stereo sound at a bargain price.

by menomonee1 Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Apr 20 '01
Pros: Great sound at a bargain price.
Cons: No base and treble control.
Are you tired of listening to sound come out of your computer with the quality of a $25.00 portable radio? Do your computer speakers rattle when you turn them up a bit? That is what the sound system for my computer was like. "Ok, time for new speakers"....

Just listen to the quality

by ken44 , Apr 10 '01
Pros: Great sound, small, can go very loud
Cons: Bass is a bit "Boomy/Hollow", no headphone jack
Before I bought these speakers I had a pair of crappy generic speakers that come with most new computers. They are ok for simplistic sounds, but when you want to play music, games or DVD at a good quality, then they really don't do the trick.

Perfect speakers for me and maybe you?

by ronc27 , Apr 08 '01
Pros: Price, quality, and appearance
Cons: Power button is kind of hard to get to.
Recently the subwoofer of my Labtec 2414 speakers developed a short in it (read my epinion on the Labtec speakers for more information), leaving me without any thumping bass. This was unacceptable. I quickly started searching for a quality set of...

Great value for MP3/CD listeners

by mcjester , Mar 27 '01
Pros: Good sound, easy, a step up from tinny "computer speakers", nice footrest
Cons: Lack of sophisticated controls
For the price, the Altec ACS54 is quite a fine set of speakers. Consisting of a subwoofer and four satellite speakers, it can put out more than enough pretty good quality sound for most any purpose.

Price: I got the set for $50 after...

by teufel , Mar 17 '01
Pros: Nice sound, good price.
Cons: Haven't found one yet.
I admit it. I use my computer more than my stereo. That isn't a bad thing though...

I recently went shopping for a computer. I got everything I needed. But after I got all of that, I didn't have much left for some really nice speakers. I...
