Summary: Got these for my PC and I love them. They sound great and dont distort at all when cranked up. The remote is awesome and very easy to use. Only down side is that they cost a bit much. I definitely recommend these though.

Summary: I previously had the Creative T3030 and these are a slight improvement because the VS4221 has two tweeters and a downward firing mid-range in each speaker. The sound from across the room is impressive but up close, you will notice the lack of midrange. Playing games the midrange is also very noticable but watching movies or listening to music is amazing. The thing I can't stand is the fact that you have no feedback as to what the bass/trebel levels are. You can change them in the remote but different applications will require more/less bass/trebel so it makes you fiddle around to find the perfect setup everytime... instead of being able to tune to it right away. The bass isn't a one-tone thumper so its a plus when you use these for music. Overall, I would recommend these if the price is right.

Summary: Sound investment (no pun intended!) for the price. I wanted to upgrade my speakers for a new laptop that I purchased and I decided to go with this product. I am usually pleased with Altec Lansing products and this was not a disappointment.
