very good for a while by R. Tejeda
i bought this about 3 months ago and sound was great! but… after a good period of time i started hearing a lot of fuzz in the sound so this is very good for price but not so good in long term use
Beware: NOT eligible for Prime Shipping! - Amaz(on)ing!…and that’s from somewhat of an audiophile! by Pavan Battar
Edit/just wanted to add: This item is somehow not eligible for Amazon Prime, even though it’s direct from Amazon! Since the option for 1-Day via 1-click was available, I clicked it… Shipping cost way more than the speakers did! Not sure why it’s excluded, since I’ve bought an over-the-range Microwave and a Lawn mower from Amazon, and have gotten them overnighted for just $3.99 each…
These speakers are great! I had an Altec Lansing m604 dock/speaker thing for my Zune and, while it sounds ok, I was looking for “fuller” sound. I tried, for a few days, the Bose Sounddock - the $399 version, since that’s the only one with an aux input - and it truly disappointed.
Then I saw this set… I bought this along with a Zune Dock, and it sounds great, is super easy to use, and the remote, in my opinion, is both easy to use and full featured. I especially like that I can adjust the bass, center, surround, and everything else with the remote, that way, I can hide the main unit and forget about it! The batteries the remote came with were junk, which could be why the other reviewer had no range with his remote. I especially like that the “eye” for the remote is detached from the subwoofer/main unit…so that way I can put each component in an optimum location.
Obviously, the sound quality isn’t going to rival a $1,000+ setup, but for passive type listening (i.e. when you’re not sitting there waiting to hear every breath the artist takes and every time his/her shoelace drags across the floor), gaming, and movies, it’s not bad! Do take note that for surround sound with movies/games, your computer will have to have discrete outputs for the rear, front, center, and subwoofer. With an MP3 player plugged into the aux jack, I’m really happy with how well it “assigns” sound to the front and rear speakers.
What I ended up doing was putting one speaker on each wall of my bedroom, and the center speaker directly above the middle of my bed. It’s amazing how much easier it is to relax and fall asleep with music all around you!
So…in conclusion, GET THIS! Cheapest price out of anywhere I’ve seen…by far. Also, it blows the socks off of the Bose Sounddock, for 1/8th of the price! I could literally buy a plane ticket out to the Altec Lansing HQ, pick up my VS3251, and fly back, for less than the cost of a Bose Sounddock!
Good Sound Bad Remote by Paul T. Berkey
The sound quality is great for the price. The remote is junk. It only works from about four feet away from the eye. Furthermore, there is no display to let you know what function you have selected on the remote so you are constantly guessing as to what controls are being selected. You get what you pay for I guess. Pay a few bucks more and avoid the frustration.
Excellent Product! Excellent Service! by William H. Jordan
I’ve used these speakers with use as an entertainment system and the sound is awesome! As always with Altec Lansing, product setup is easy and the quality is always good. Every transaction I’ve done with Amazon.com has been just as awesome!
