Introduction:
It's been a while since we last looked at a speaker system from Altec Lansing, so you can be sure that I was excited when the opportunity to review the new PT6021 speaker system came up. The design is eye catching and the attention to extra features isn't lacking in the least. Time to put this sweet new system through it's paces to see just how well it performs!
