The Altec Lansing Orbit USB stereo speakers are designed for portability, clarity and stereo quality sound from your laptop. Priced at a reasonable $50, they are good for anyone who wants a decent laptop speaker solution for traveling on a small budget. However, the drawback is that these are not the loudest speaker system available.
For their size, they pack quite a punch that will be good enough for a small space like an office or hotel room. They are a great option for those who are more concerned with audio clarity than volume. By focusing on sound quality, Altec Lansing has found a way to stand out in an overcrowded market. The speakers aren't tiny, but they are lightweight and they lock into each other so they can easily be placed in your travel bag for easy storage on the go. They are USB-powered and don't need batteries, charging or to be plugged into a wall.
