Title: Boomy and tinny
Review: For over a decade I have had a Monsoon speaker/subwoofer system attached to my computer(s). Recently one of the channels has gotten flaky. I saw this Altec-Lansing system on Amazon for a remarkable price. The reviewers seemed to love them, and the speakers were smaller, which would save some space on my desk, so I went for it.Unfortunately, not all ears are created equal, and I really hate the sound of these speakers. If find the low end very boomy, the high end very tinny, and the midrange washed out. I played with all the settings on the Altec-Lansing, on the sound card, and on Windows Media Player, trying to change the equalization to something pleasant. After lots of fiddling, I managed to get it sounding "OK" (to me.)Perhaps its just my ears, or maybe there was something wrong with the unit I got, but these speakers just ain't for me.So, I've sent it back. Amazon's return policy is a wonderful thing.
Is the review positive or negative?
