Applications The Altec Lansing ACS250 was part of a 2.1 multimedia desktop speaker system popular in the mid-to-late 1990s, designed for home and office PCs during the era when multimedia computing — CD-ROM audio, games, and internet media — drove demand for better desktop sound. The powered subwoofer connects between the PC's sound card and the satellite speakers, supplying them with DC power via the DC Out port while the internal amplifier handles the bass frequencies. These systems were commonly paired with Windows 95/98-era desktops and remained a popular Altec Lansing multimedia lineup into the early 2000s. The subwoofer-only unit is useful as a direct replacement for a failed or missing bass unit in an existing ACS250 setup, or as a compact powered bass source for a custom 2.1 configuration.
