Altec Lansing VS4121 Speakers: Good Speakers For Any User

bynoangels Feb 6, 2007
37 Helpfuls 38 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Very good sound, bass and treble controls, high max volume, easy to connect
Cons A little larger than I would have liked
Recommended it? Yes

I purchased the Altec Lansing VS4121 Computer Speakers as a replacement for my Altec Lansing VS2121 Computer Speakers, when they stopped working properly, one month ago. I had been very pleased with my old speakers, and felt it would be smart to stay with the same brand and product line. The... Read full review »

Cons None that i can think of...

I purchased this system a few months ago from Futureshop for $79.99CAD (MSRP was $129.99CAD)without the extended warranty BS. The price seemed right, and as soon as I fired it up, I found that wasn't disappointed , with rich, clean and accurate sound, this system delivers your bang for your buck... Read full review »

Pros Good price, easy to set up, excellent sound
Cons None
Recommended it? Yes

I had a pair of cheap tinny sounding speakers, you know the kind, the ones that come with the PC; the kind you use only because they are there. After discovering Internet Radio and having music while I worked at home, the miserable sound of the old speakers got to me one day. A visit to three... Read full review »

Altec Lansing Speakers

byyoshi4205 Sep 25, 2008
12 Helpfuls 13 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Bass is very loud, and sound can get very VERY loud
Cons Life of speakers is rougly 1 year.
Recommended it? Yes

These speakers give you quite a bang for your buck. I have never owned a set of speakers in this price range that can get as loud as these. And the bass on the speakers is exceptional. I almost always have to have the bass half-way up because it is so powerful. But when you want to really blast... Read full review »

Recommended it? Yes

First things first, I need to let you know where I'm coming from on my review. I did not purchase these speakers as an *upgrade* to my sound system. More accurately, I purchased the VS-4121 as a *replacement* for a very high quality 5.1 surround system that had finally reached its end of life. I am... Read full review »

Pros Great Sound, Easy Set Up, Controls on side speakers, Sound better than $150 speakers.
Cons Woofer a little bulky.
Recommended it? Yes

I have a 32 inch LCD tv which I sometimes connect to my computer to stream shows off netflix. The TV speakers aren't that great either. But then again I did not want to spend too much money on a home theater system and go overboard. So I wanted to get something which sounded good enough for my... Read full review »

Probably good for gaming, just ok for music

Pros Very nice looking, lots of base, easy to set up
Cons Too much bass distorts the midranges
Recommended it? No

I purchased this set over the weekend because Altec Lansing has a reputation for creating great PC speakers, I liked the way they looked, and I liked their price.

After setting the speakers up, I listened to some of my favorite music. Unfortunately I was disappointed with how it sounded... Read full review »

Nice woof. Nice tweet.

Pros Nice design, easy to set up and use.
Cons Cables a little short for my liking.
Recommended it? Yes

I needed to upgrade the speakers used on my home PC as the bass driver in the old units was past it's best. Mind you they were 11 years old, so go figure.
I cruised up and down the aisle in BestBuy listening to all the offerings from the $19 own-brand stuff up to the $300 5-channel Bose... Read full review »

Accoustic not great, but not bad

Pros Good clear sounding satelites
Cons Keep the subwoofer at one quearter maximum.
Recommended it? Yes

Accoustic music played quite well, not like BOSE but its not bad. Rock music played the best. The sub-woofer booming must be kept to the lowest. Never go above one quarter or else it will be ruined.

Pros Crisp, clean audio from a great value package
Cons Bass a bit boomy but can be adjusted with the bass control
Recommended it? Yes

I'm in my forties and I love classic rock from AC/DC to Zeppelin. I've had some Altec's before these and lost those in a house fire. So I was ready to go speaker shopping again after a few months of listening to the one tiny speaker that's in my Mac G4 which drove me nuts. Did my research on the... Read full review »
