Altec Lansing ACS48 Speaker Set

 

Conclusion

The sound quality of this set is excellent. Even with the bass up enough to dislocate my knees, the sound was still very good. There was little distortion at very high volumes.

There were a few things that were kinda annoying. For one, the volume control isn't the traditional knob, there are two buttons on the right speaker for up and down, and pressing both simultaneously serves as the power on and off. This is annoying because you can't see the speaker volume, you have no idea what its set at. The front of the subwoofer comes off easilly by just pulling on it, though there isn't very much interesting to look at behind it (there's a black wood panel behind it with the speaker pointing out the front). The cable that goes from the right speaker down to the subwoofer is big and thick, and tends to pull the satellite along with it if most of it is going down the side of a table.
