TestSeek's Expert Reviews Summary
Staff at TestSeek has read all the expert reviews (so you don't have to) for this product and written a summary of what the editors think about the product.
The Altec Lansing Expressionist BASS FX3022 is a 2.0 computer speaker set which impresses most of the editors both with their design and audio quality. Instead of a separate subwoofer unit, the bass speaker is build into the speakers themselves. This design generally works fine and produces good audio quality but it may cause the table to vibrate at higher volumes. Most of the reviewers like the design of the product but they do reserve them selves by saing that "taste is individual"...indeed. Most editors think that the price is a little steep for the quality/sound of these speakers. They are often compared to Creative G-series speakers which most editors believe are better, at least when the price is considered as well.

TestSeek's Conclusion
Good looking and smartly designed speakers with high audio quality. A litlle too expensive; there are cheaper PC 2.1 speaker sets which gives you better value.
Very good looking, cool conical shape, Bass powerful enough to replace the need for a separate subwoofer
Bass overpowering for music listening, A little too forward sounding, Can be harsh high frequencies at times
PerformanceWe were quite itching to play these speakers right away and blast them with our tunes, but first, theoretical testing needs to be done, as that’s our job. I inserted our self made audio test disc into the HTPC drive and plugged in the FX3...
No bass or treble settings, Poor acoustics, Poor reproduction of mids, Expensive.
The Altec Lansing FX 3022 sells for around Rs.6,490 with a 1-year warranty. Now the pricing may seem exorbitant, but remember that you are not only paying for the sound but also for the superb design. The speaker system has already managed to bag an a...
Abstract: My first impression of the Expressionist Bass FX3022 speakers is that they sound very good. Careful listening suggests that the high end of the spectrum is probably overemphasized. The frequency response suggests a sharp peak at 15 kHz, but these speakers sound like they’re enh..

Tall tower-style speakers deliver lashings of bass – as promised
Not particularly child-proof, bass levels can be overwhelming
While the looks are an acquired taste there's a lot to like about the Altec Lansing Expressionist Bass speakers. Their innovative driver arrangement delivers balanced but powerful bass and good overall sound quality. A couple of design issues and a slight...
Abstract: Altec Lansings glossy black FX3022 speakers look very distinctive, and we were rather taken with their Dalek-like appearance. The power button and volume controls are located on top of the right-hand satellite. These are the first 2.2 speakers wev...
Sstriking design; subwoofers built into the base of each speaker
Treble is aggressive and brash; no remote
While the great-looking Altec Lansing Expressionist Bass FX3022 multimedia speakers fall a little short for music listening, their potent bass makes them a better choice for gaming and movie watching ...
