In this video I will review the Altec Lansing 221 speakers. I've had these speakers for 18 years and they are still going strong! They were not sitting in storage, these speakers have been a core part of my setup for all those years. I can for sure say that I got my money's worth with these speakers and they will definitely still keep going. As always stay safe everyone!

The Altec Lansing 221’s are embodied in a matted finish of black and grey metal. They feel as light as aluminum but seem to be more impervious to scratches, which even modern-day cell phones have difficulty in preventing. I have lost count how many times I have dropped these speakers however it shows little signs that I did so. I have a couple of gashes on them but considering that these have been with me through maybe 5 to 6 gaming rigs, moving in and out of rooms over the years, and yet still just harbor these minor scuffs and smudges of dirt, I am going to conclude that that is an amazingly sturdy.
A matted metal frame combined with the short cube design makes for a timeless minimalist design before minimalism was even a thing. Nowadays we just have too much stuff on our desks, and the dream goal is to get things down to the least obtrusive without sacrificing functionality. One thing which never occurred to me was how handy it is to have short speakers. If they were any higher, like the other Altec Lansings I own, their sound would be partially muffled due to the height of the monitors. It is true that I can bring up and down the height of my current MSI, however the height of the monitor is determined not by if it blocks your speakers but rather if your eyes are facing the top of the screen when you are sitting up straight.
I am not an audiophile. So I am not an expert on if the speakers sound as they should in a music studio. What I can say is that I didn’t change entire gaming rigs over 18 years to just get subpar machine gun fire, half baked explosions, or get unlife like screams. No, these guys have given me the most enriching sound experience I could ever have wanted with the added benefit of me not having the need to spend money on one less thing.
These speakers boomed Warcraft 3 clashes, flak cannons from Free Space 2, and countless crispy gun fire stemming from Half Life 2, Battlefield 1942, which by the way will always be close to my heart, and every battlefield game which came afterwards.
In short, there might be better speakers out there but at no point was I ever taken out of the immersion of the game due to the sound. In fact, it was most probably the great sounds from the speakers which encouraged me over the years not to upgrade my gaming pc for a little longer. If my current gaming PC at the time couldn’t make it look pretty, at the very least the games sounded amazing.

Hardware Sugar is a boutique computer store in Makati. We focus on having cool parts for cool people. Since we’re always playing around with tech in the shop we decided why not film some of the components we have.So that led to unboxings, reviews and just general tips on building,maintaining a computer. Occasionally that also means dipping into cellphone reviews, investment options, car reviews, vlogs on how it’s like to run a PC shop. We don’t know everything but we try to share what we do know in a way which is easy to understand for PC newbies.
FYI on the product: We purchased this item. The brand had no say in the editorial content of this video.
