Altec Lansing ADA 305 2 Speakers

Cons: If you don't have a USB port you cannot use this line of speakers

First off, let me just say that ADA305 Digital PowerCube Speaker System is the best pair of speakers that I have ever listened or seen at the price its at. When I purchased the speakers I had no idea what Altec Lansing was and what their products...

My $2000 Stereo system is collecting dust thanks to the Altec Lansing ADA 305's. These babies rock. I play a lot of games, and I was going to opt for some 4 or 5 point surround speakers, but like many people, I didn't want the hassle of trying to locate...

Cons: Weak in the deeper range of notes, chance of driver conflicts

Well, these speakers have been out on the market for quite a while now. I know this, because I bought these same speakers the very day they were in the stores. Had been hearing great things about them, and wanted to find out myself. I have to say, I...

Pros: True Digital Audio, Great Software, Sound Clarity even at high volume levels, price

After I blew out the original speakers that came with my computer, I needed a replacement. I couldn't stand the fuzz, and to make the problem worse, it was hard to turn the old speakers on due to the rubber tips on the volume adjuster. My friend told...

Cons: Can be blown out, no headphone jack, ProLogic may sound tinny

The ADA-305 is quite a set for the price. I picked mine up from a place called Upgrade Souce (www.upgradesource.com). They cost $146 plus shipping; I believe that comes out a little lower than the hyped Buy.com's price. They're quite powerful, too....
