Pros:?Music & Movies, Finances ReviewI bought these to replace another set of Altec Lansing PC Speakers I had that worked great. These however, are a big disappointment.
ProsGood overall sound quality, Easy to hook up and makes my music sound great. ConsThe bass on the product doesnt "enhance" my games like my old speakers did Share this Review: Review?2?for?BXR1121 PC Multimedia Speaker System Overall: 5 [RATINGOF] 5 Quality: 5 [RATINGOF] 5 Features: 5 [RATINGOF] 5 Value: 5 [RATINGOF] 5 Reviewed by: Weezie43 Location: Greensburg, Ky Duration of product use: Less than a week Level of expertise: Newbie Title: Awesome Date:?February 20, 2009 ProsI am not a expert on speakers but these are great. Friends say they are excellent for the price and they are interested in purchasing the same..
I bought this speaker set for $25 at Wal-Mart when a friend and I wanted to play tunes from our iPods whilst spending the night at a hotel and had no stereo on hand. This speaker set is IDEAL for situations where you need a solid and economical close-range audio solution for your iPod or PC. The satelites have decent range and the sub performs nicely.
This combo replaces my older Altec Lansing speaker system that failed after 14 grueling years of service. I didn't want to spend as much as the last system, so this was a compromise on my part.
I WISH however that it would CHARGE your i-pod, but no such luck. And, as others have mentioned, the "craddle" (holder) for the i-pod is a waste of plastic, really. I took back a 40.00 system that sounded HORRIBLE, and ordered this instead. (My son got his @ Wal-mart, but I could never did them there)
The switch is awkwardly placed behind the subwoofer which they suggest putting under your desk. Everyday I have to crawl under my desk, then feel behind the subwoofer for a switch I can't even see. Other Altec Lansing speakers have an on off switch on the actual speakers so I don't know why they did this. I wish I had bought different speakers it such a pain turning them on and off.
great speakers, for any pc, great sound quality, i had this for years that's why i had to buy more, and give my sister and my father as a gift.
My fiance and I had been looking for a set of Zune speakers/dock for at least a year until I decided "Screw it, a set of PC speakers will do!"
If you are simply looking to replace or add computer speakers, look no further. You will not find a better pair of speakers for the price -- which, at $9 and change, is an absolute steal. (Heck, it costs Amazon just as much to ship them!)
My new motherboard on-board audio did not have enough oomph to drive my desktop speakers to a useable volume. The 1121's solved the problem - full volume and tone controls, good sound (I'm not an audiophile), and nice styling. The convenient aux input is very handy for playing my wife's MP3 player when we're not using the computer.
