True 5.1 Surround without Rear Speakers! The GT5051 is a genuine 5.1
surround sound system with a twist. The "rear" speakers sit on top of
the "front" speakers, so there are no rear speaker wires to deal with.
Altec Lansing’s patent-pending Side- Firing Surround™ technology
enables vertical stacking because it provides the reflected surround
sound that makes music or sound effects rich and immediate. The top
speakers are situated at the optimal angle to deliver the clashes, the
zooms, and all the sonic nuances—complete with sharp highs and clean
midtones. Full-bodied sounds come from the bottom or "front" speakers.
A center channel offers crystal-clear movie dialog, while a ported
subwoofer completes the sound spectrum with low-frequency,
full-throated bass you can feel. Whether you’re a gamer, movie
aficionado, or music lover, you’ll appreciate the elegant simplicity
and no-holds-barred sound quality of the Altec Lansing GT5051 speaker
system.
