Altec Lansing 2.1 system stands the test of time
I actually bought the Altec Lansing - AVS 300 2.1-CH PC Multimedia Speaker System in 2003. I have used these speakers nonstop with every desktop I've had. The speaker system has outlived 3 computers. The sound has not diminished at all. I've listened to some thinner Altac Lansing speaker systems that just don't have the same sound as these guys. They are big enough to have a nice boomy sound but small enough that I can unplug them and carry them off to listen to my Zune somewhere. The sub woofer has its own volume button which is nice depending on the music. I personally leave it 3/4 of the way up. I am also in a band and love to use these speakers to test out demo materials that our producers send to us to see how we like them. These speakers are very good all around speakers that give me an honest sound. They fit nicely on my desk with the sub underneath and since they've been around a while, you can probably find them pretty cheap.
