Posted by Suhit Gupta in "HARDWARE" @ 07:00 AM
"Altec Lansing today unveiled its MX5020 music and gaming stereo speaker system--a breakthrough two-piece product that, by eliminating a subwoofer and adding MaxxBass(R) technology, gives listeners more dynamic sound than they ever thought they'd hear from a 2.0 speaker set. Smart, sophisticated, yet simple, the MX5020 packs incredible audio output within two stylish cabinets just 5.2"W X 2.5"D X 10.2"H. Each speaker contains a 3" full range driver and 1" horn loaded tweeter to deliver rich, expressive sound capable of capturing the most delicate flute solo as well as the wildest gaming sound effects."
Interesting concept - eliminating the subwoofer. MaxxBass analyzes the bass signal and calculates a series of low-frequency harmonics that extend the system's response up to 1.5 octaves without distortion. They are available now for just under $100.
