Altec Lansing FX3021 Expressionist Plus reviewed, deemed good value

Speakers might be among the worst hardware to assess online. What do 36 watts of power output and a 40Hz to 20kHz response range tell you about the actual audi...

Altec Lansing Expressionist Plus FX3021 review: Altec Lansing Expressionist Plus FX3021

Altec Lansing Expressionist Plus FX3021

Decent sound for the money; bass is fairly tight; speakers are good-looking and relatively compact; satellites angle can be adjusted.

Audio inputs are on the subwoofer, making quick hook-ups to portable devices potentially inconvenient.

Altec Lansing's Expressionist Plus FX3021 is a good compromise for someone looking for a compact, affordable 2.1 PC speaker set that delivers decent sound.

Altec Lansing expressionist PLUS

The expressionist PLUS speakers have inspiring design and distinctive look. However, they also project rather uninspiring sound.

Attractive look ; Easy to set up ; Quite compact

Unexciting sound ; Poor bass reproduction ; Thin mids ; A bit pricey

Distinct look and attractive design but not willing to sing out loud and clear.

Good-looking speakers but the audio quality is poor

Attractive design, compact subwoofer, great mids and high

Weak subwoofer, no remote controller, all inputs provided on back of subwoofer, satellite speakers cannot be wall mounted

Review: Altec Lansing Expressionist Plus (FX3021) speakers

Altec Lansing's affordable Expressionist Plus gives you a 2.1 speaker system that provides decent performance, an impressive-for-the-money design, and some nice features.

On the top of the subwoofer is a large, matte-rubber-coated knob for adjusting the subwoofer’s output level. For most music, I found setting this knob at approximately the midpoint provided decent tonal balance. The knob also acts as a power switch:...
