TweakTown posted a review on the Altec Lansing VS3251 5.1 Surround Speaker System
These days AL are focusing on more affordable systems that are very functional without entering into a higher pricing bracket. Now, I'm not sure about AL’s exact reasons for concentrating on the lower end of the spectrum, but let’s hope they can combine value with performance, which is admittedly not an easy nut to crack for any company.Altec Lansing VS3251 5.1 Surround Speaker System Review
The VS3251 system is an analog 5.1 channel system consisting of five small speakers, each with a 2.5” full range cone enclosed within a sturdy molded plastic shell. To complement these we have a 5” medium sized subwoofer unit which is of the front firing long throw breed, enclosed within an MDF box. MDF is often chosen to increase tonal accuracy and natural resonance within the unit.
