This famous name is differentiating its 5.1 rig from Creatives and Logitechs by giving it a USB as well as analogue input.The advantage of USB is that you dont need a 5.1 sound card for six-channel surround sound.If you already have a decent multich...

Subwoofers are usually brutish-looking things that are best kept tucked out of view, but this one looks quite stylish. The satellites are smart and compact, but the wired remote lets the side down. At 15W, power consumption after switching off is hi...

We hoped that the FX5051 might make a good personal surround-sound system for your PC, even though you might opt for something more boisterous for a home cinema. The relatively low RMS wont shake a large living room, but the isobaric design of the sub...

Ces enceintes 5.1 ont l'originalité de se brancher en USB sur le PC, qui ne nécessite pas de fait d'une carte son qui gère le multi canal ce qui est souvent le cas sur les portables. En combinaison avec un lecteur DVD logiciel, elles permettent de rest...

Le caisson de basse du FX5051 est particulier. En effet, il utilise un système dit "isobarique" à pression constante. En quoi cela consiste-t-il ? Deux boomers sont placés face-à-face et de façon verticale dans le caisson. La pres...

Le FX5051 aurait pu être un excellent kit 5.1. Il reste correct, dommage que les satellites ne soient pas vraiment à la hauteur de l'excellent caisson de basse...

Et fuldt surroundsæt med indbygget forstærker til en rimelig pris lyder godt, og med ekstra funktioner som indbygget USB-lydkort og fjernbetjening er der også noget nyt at se på i dette sæt fra Altec Lansing. Sættet består af fem ens satellithøjttalere...

Altec Lansing er en kendt producent inden for headsets og PC højttalere. Vi skal se på deres FX5051 som er det første 5.1 sæt vi har modtaget i meget lang tid, og det bliver faktisk ganske spændende at se hvordan de arbejder. Det er det eneste 5.1 s...

I have spent much time testing and listening to Speakers and Sound Systems and have remarked of the quality of many of the "All in One" systems available. But what about great sound from the PC - especially from a Notebook Computer? While great strides...

Slight low frequency hiss detectable when not being used to reproduce music or other source material.

This is just an amazing sound system. The technology of converting USB audio into true 5.1 surround sound is here and it is fabulous. I would be remiss if I did not mention that there was a constant low frequency "hiss" that came through each speake...

There are so many great speaker systems for your PC, from 2.1, 5.1, even 7.1 systems, but to use them to their full potential you need a top of the line sound card. This is the dilemma a lot of people face when going out to get a new set of speakers. W...

If I were to suggest a PC speaker system for anyone this would be it! The easy setup and not having to have a sound card is ideal for anyone that is new to computers. If you do not want to spend the money on the FX5051s, Altec Lansing has the FX4021...

Above average in every category, the FX5051 is a pleasure to listen to, and a great choice for laptop and Mac users looking to experience 5.1 surround sound.

Clever design, Excellent sound reproduction, Deep bass, Powerful control pod with front inputs & outputs, Remote control bundled, USB & analog audio, PC & MacOS X compatible...

Low hiss always present, Somewhat pricey, USB audio doesnt support multi-channel in all games, Free wall mounts not included, No S/PDIF input for gaming consoles...

Great for office work and road warriors, but inadequate for gamers, graphics professionals, and media center users...

The beautifully crafted Altec Lansing FX5051 has something to offer that no one has i.e. a USB plug and play without requiring a dedicated 5.1 channel soundcard. We were impressed by the overall look and design. The subwoofer has two barreled 6.5-inch...

We reviewed the Bose Companion 5 sometime back which imitated a 5.1 channel surround sound system. Today we have with us a proper 5.1 system from Altec Lansing, one of the best in the multimedia systems. This system is similar to Bose, it supports plug...

Inadequate Bass at high volume, Confusing Rear Speaker Volume Adjustment, Bit expensive.

The FX5051, being a proper 5.1 channel surround system, has decent sound quality. This system also had the same plug-n-play feature like the Bose Companion 5. It is also possible to use the FX5051 as a home theatre and so it also takes standard 5.1 ch...
