Altec Lansing Computer Speakers: Do you think I can fix the speakers?

Mon, 13 Aug 2018 04:08:23 -0700

I hadn't used the speakers in while and I pulled them out the other day. They worked for one day then the next time I tried I heard a quiet electronic noise sound but could not get them to work. Is it worth it to try to fix them?

Altec Lansing Computer Speakers: What can I do with these?

Fri, 02 Jan 2026 19:53:06 -0700

I have these old Altec Lansing computer speakers. I would like to use them but the connects do not match anything on my computers. Any ideas on how I can rewire these (new connectors?) so that they can be plugged into my computer? The only two connectors/wires coming from the speakers are the ones shown.

Thanks

Update November 5,2017

Here are more images as requested by Oldturkey. Thank you Oldturkey for your time and help. You are correct, it is the VS4221. Still not sure if this is going to work but hoping to avoid throwing these speakers away. Also, do not want to spend much money to make these work - I know this is a tricky balance. I have not used a multimeter yet but I wanted to share these images in case this helps. I am a high school teacher so my time to get projects like this done is very limited, but I will try to work on it a little at a time.

I bought a set of Altec Lansing 621 speakers. They did not come with the wired remote controller. The system won’t power up without the remote box. I was able to wire up a remote box using a couple of momentary contact switches. Schematic attached.
