Originally, Altec Services Company serviced the theater sound systems the company founders had helped develop. Įngineers at Western Electric, who later formed Altec Services Company, developed the technology for motion picture sound that was introduced in 1927, with the release of The Jazz Singer. Their primary products are loudspeakers and associated audio electronics for professional, home, automotive and multimedia applications. is an American audio electronics company founded in 1927. But I'll also be on the lookout for something better too.Consumer loudspeakers, headphones, in-ear monitorsĪltec Lansing, Inc. On par, if not a bit better than the Cambridge Soundworks digital. Perhaps it's not even possible for computer speakers. Something forward and in-my-face kinda thing. I'm not a dum-bass - at least I hope not, but I was looking for speakers that were a tad more exciting than these. When I tried to turning up the bass, it just got more muddy, boomy, and just plain ugly. But for some odd reason there was no low bass. The midbass was good, well controlled an tight.
Speaking of bass, this was one facet of the ATP3s that I found lacking.
That was kind of a surprise to me, considering most mass market speakers cater to bass addicts.
Overall, the system is somewhat on the bright side. They did get a little harsh at times though. Compared to my Cambrige Soundworks digital, the midrange on the ATP3 is definitely sweeter and smoother. Maybe I was expecting too much out of a pair of multimedia speakers. I found the sound quality decent at best. Replacable speaker wires would've been much less restricting. The speakers hook up to the sub/amp unit with short, undetachable cords. Versatility was another problem with the ATP3. The satellites and sub are pretty light too, giving them that "cheap feel", if you know what I mean. I'd say the front panel is about the size of a TV remote. Perhaps I've been spoiled by my headphone setup, but I wasn't incredibly impressed with the ATP3s.įirst off, they look a lot cooler in pictures than they do in real life. Well, I went with Ian and Neruda's suggestion to get the Altec Lansing ATP3 multimedia speakers.
