If you have limited desk space, consider the Altec Lansing ATP3 flat-panel 3-piece computer speaker system–a stylish, space-saving audio solution consisting of two tall, tower-shaped satellites and a larger, more conventional-looking subwoofer. Each 12-watt satellite encloses two 28-millimeter flattened-dome microdrivers capable of full midrange sound mounted atop a 3-inch midbass speaker firing down against your desk. The subwoofer has a 6.5-inch downward-firing cone, an 18-watt amplifier, and a wooden cabinet that adds power and low-frequency realism. The result of all this firepower is smooth, pleasant output throughout the audible range with deep, detailed bass. Three adjustable knobs on the right satellite control overall volume, bass, and treble. Designed for general-listening spaces, it comes without a headphone jack. The ATP3 three-piece flat-panel speaker system comes with a one-year warranty.
The ATP3 is a stylish high-quality, high-performance 3-piece system with a thin profile design. It is the perfect choice for a space-saving audio solution. The ATP3 design delivers powerful audio playback, which dramatically enhances PC audio, in a space-saving shape.The ATP3 amplified speaker system is especially designed for multimedia computer applications. The unit is comprised of a subwoofer and two satellite speakers, and features separate volume, bass and treble controls to provide flexibility in sound mix. Powerful wooden subwoofer delivers extended low frequency response and realistic sound. Down-firing mid/bass driver reproduces low-end frequencies for full, rich sound. Two dynamic micro-drivers in each satellite deliver all the power and performance of a larger speaker. The satellite speakers are uniquely designed to provide full tweeter and mid-bass response in a slim profile housing that complements flat panel as well as standard monitors. They are magnetically shielded and can be placed close to a monitor (more…)

pisspoor company
I still haven’t received that hardware and the company who sold it is totally, completely unresponsive and will NOT return any phone calls or e-mail as promised.

Best computer speakers I’ve ever owned
Hands down, best product for the price. You COULD spend $300-400.00 on a Bose or equivilent or you could spend $80.00 and get superior, clean, deep sound from these.

Bang for the Bucks
I just purchased a set of these off craigslist for $35. If you find a healthy set just buy it. These are 7 speakers all together in an excellent design. Sound really nice.

Rich Sound
There is one word that can describe these speakers- rich.
They employ rich mid range drivers to really fill the room with sound and have perfectly proportioned treble…

The Best I’ve Had
I wish everyone could own these speakers. They have surprisingly good sound, in both quality and volume, from such a small package.

These speakers… are amazing. I paid $70 for a factory recondtioned set off Ebay seven or eight years ago.

four years on – still going strong
I’ve gone through about three sets of desktop speakers from three other brands; all of them went through serious hiss after about a year of heavy-use.

Amazing Sound for a Convenient Price!
These babies create fantastic sound, far beyond my imagination!
God…they sound even better than any home audio sound system I’ve ever seen or heard in my house or anyone’s…
