Altec Lansing BXR1121

The Altec Lansing BXR1121 multimedia system includes two satellite speakers and one subwoofer. An upgrade from the two-speaker BXR1120, the BXR1121 actually shares more in common with the two-speaker, one-subwoofer Altec Lansing VS2421 from the VS series. In fact, the BXR1121 is somewhat of a downgrade from the VS2421. For instance, the BXR1121 maintains a weaker peak power output of 30w (versus 56w) and a reduced nominal power output of 15w (versus 28w). The BXR1121, however, does offer two additional features not contained on the VS2421, including an MP3 cradle and two audio line-in input jacks versus just one. The BXR1121 also includes an ‘elegant design’ with cloth grills, and an optional wall-mounting kit. The Altec Lansing BXR1121 is priced at $29.95, $20 less than the $49.95 VS2421.
