3D Sound Surge has posted a review on the Altec Lansing ATP3 speaker system.
The system we will test in this review, the ATP3, is really the first in a new series with clearly different design (at least visually) that targets the same market and also the first since the ACS48 where the satellites are not just using a single midrange driver. It’s also one of the very few systems in the multimedia market that we know of that includes 3 drivers in each satellite (the Labtec APX4620 being another example). This comes in form of a standard midrange driver and the new, if we should believe Altec Lansing, revolutionary Micro driver technology. In addition to the 3 drivers in the satellites you will find a 6.5” woofer in the subwoofer cabinet together with the amplifier. The SRP of the system is $100, which puts it at the exact same price point as the SoundWorks Digital 2.1 and slightly below the ACS48. In this review we will see if the ATP3 only offers a unique design that’s visually appealing or if it also offers sound quality beyond the ACS series. We will not be able to say how it compares to the ACS48 but we will compare it to several other systems including Altec Lansing’s 4-speaker system ACS56 and Labtec’s Edge-418. Altec Lansing has also released a 4-speaker version in the new ATP series named ATP5 that retails for $200.Read more
