Pros: Rich lows and crisp highs. Very stylish design. Great performance at a very reasonable price.
Cons: More wires to add to the tangle behind the PC. No headphone jack.
Summary: Computer speakers have come as far along in the last 10 years as any other component in the typical PC, so when I stumbled across the ATP3 system, I figured it was about time to upgrade. I don't play games on my PC, nor do I routinely watch movies, but ... read more

Pros: Treble and Bass control
Cons: No headphone jack
Summary: The Altec Lansing ATP 3 speaker system is probably the best set-up in its price range. The satellites provide nice, clean sound while the sub provides adequate thump. I am somewhat disappointed with the downward facing drivers on the satellites. ... read more

Pros: Volume control+adjustment+power control on speaker. Very different look. Period.
Cons: Fair to poor midrange/vocal output. No headphone output on speaker.
Summary: I listen to music and play games on my computer on a daily basis. I have been using a pair of Cambridge PCWorks 3piece speaker system which can be purchased for $30. These sound good, but after 3 years, I really wanted bass adjustments and power on/off ... read more

Pros: Great sound, low price, very stylish design.
Separate bass, treble & volume controls
Cons: None
Summary: 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 ... read more

Pros: excellent sound... I would certainly have paid more for this quality!
Cons: no cons
Summary: Since it was difficult to find any buying advice for Mac users regarding these speakers, I was concerned about Mac compatibility. The box in the store said Mac compatible, yet all the pricewatching sites said PC only, and the manufacturer's website said ... read more

Pros: Convenient bass/volume/treble controls, great sound, slim design
Cons: Subwoofer is bulky
Summary: The Altec Lansing ATP3 (3 piece speaker system) is a great buy. Out of all the computer speaker systems I have tested this sounded the best by a longshot. Quality sound and thumping bass made this my top pick for computer speaker systems. Priced modera ... read more

Pros: Great sound quality and bass
Cons: No headphone input
Summary: I picked up my speakers at a local electronics store because they sounded the best of all the speakers I had tested and they weren't quite as expensive as some of the others either.
Upon getting them home I was one happy camper.

Pros: Rich sound, great bass, cheap price. Pumps out good volume.
Cons: Not surround or 5.1, treble is somewhat tinny.
Summary: The Altec Lansing ATP3 speaker system provides very good powered sound output for an unbeatable price. This product will do very nicely for gaming and listening to MP3. These speakers sound more rich and full, in my opinion, than speakers that cost ... read more

Pros: Affordable, good bass, nice to look at
Cons: When listening to certain music, it gets kinda muddy in the bass.
Summary: Ok, so I was looking for some nice speakers w/a subwoofer. Am I happy with what I got? Oh yeah. But first, let me give you what's not so hot.
You can't turn them up all the way, because then the desktop speakers get really garbled with the ... read more
