This year Altec Lansing offers a quite original speaker set. They thought some potential customers weren’t interested in 5.1 speakers because of complicated installation (lots of unpleasant cables and tricky satellite positioning) so they released the GT5051, a 3.1 system which emulates six channel sound. We use the word “emulate” and not “replace” as the GT5051’s ambition isn’t to replace real 5.1 speakers, but simply to provide a minimum surround sound effect with speakers positioned in front of the listener
