Great looks, great sound, great value!

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. A wired controller puts speaker functions right at your finger tips and includes a handy headphone jack and a built-in microphone you can use for internet communications. And there’s even a secondary input jack that lets you connect your MP3 or CD player while still linked to your PC.
