Product Description
Audio technology is really making big strides, and it's obvious here. The Altec Lansing VS2421 is an incredibly compact, value-priced system that gets its powerful, full-spectrum sound from custom-engineered, dual 2.5? speakers, plus a thin yet powerful 5.25? subwoofer that fits easily under your desk. The system's size is ideal for small spaces - and you can even mount the satellites on your wall. Controls are right on the front of the speaker. A handy headphone jack is right nearby, and thanks to a microphone built into the right satellite, you can use the VS2421 for internet communications. Wired controller offers easy fingertip control of volume, treble, and mute functions. Bass control is right on the subwoofer.

 Great deal August 20, 2008
These speakers sound amazing and I am pretty picky on the sound. I love how this set gives such a good bass with the tiny sub that comes with it. I also like the Aux input because I have my computer and television hooked up to it (great for video games and movies). The only knock on them is they pick up some interference. If this is going to annoy you stay away but otherwise amazing sound system for under 50 bucks.
Impressed July 23, 2008
I was impressed with these speakers. Mids are good and plenty loud. I don't have to turn it past 50%. The bass is OK. I can hear it just fine, and it fills in where needed. Not overwhelming.
The only thing is that I thought this would have come with a separate input for the 2 speakers and the subwoofer. In other words, my mobo has outputs for a sub, but i'm not using it. Just one plug into the mains. Oh well. Who knows if that sub plug works anyway.
 Bad Customer Service!! May 15, 2008

I bought this from Office Depot 3 weeks ago. It has a bad left speaker. So, I took it back to Office Depot and they refused to return it because their return policy is 14 days. They refused to stand behind the products they sell and so I was forced to turn to the manufacturer to return it. Altec Lansing told me that I'd have to pay for the shipping to return it. The shipping would be half the price of the product it's self and would take 2 hours of my time to box it up and drive to UPS etc. So:
DON'T BUY THIS OR ANY ALTEC LANSING PRODUCT.
AND, DON'T SHOP AT OFFICE DEPOT.
 Great Sound for the Price April 27, 2008
Very nice speakers. They provide very nice sound. Very loud and lots of nice bass. I usually just keep the volume half way and the treble and bass full blast and am very happy with the result. They dont take up much space and the added inputs are nice like the mic, mp3 player and headphones. I do wish with it came with wire to connect it to your mp3 player, but, not a really big deal. The price is great. Always happy with the altec lansing's speakers.
Great Speakers April 25, 2008
These speakers put out clear, rich sound, highs, lows and mids.
Highly recommended. I bought them to play our MP3 player and
portable CD player. They replace a bookshelf music system that
crapped out. I could have spent over $100 for a new system,
but for our purposes these work fine. I saved money and have
better sound than we had.
