Doesn't deserve a B rating because of it. 23:25, 10 December 2010 (UTC) STILL A DISASTER Despite the complaints by some that this is not neutral or reads like a press release (I disagree with both statements)this thing is a complete disaster in many other ways. If one reads the paragraphs you would be lead to believe the company closed forever in 1998, then again in 2000, again in 2006 then was magically a research company from 1996 through 2001, was revamped in 2008, (amazing for a company that didn't exist!)sold off again in 2009.
Was in a partnership with Etymotic Research but apparently no one knows when. How this is all somehow not neutral is a bit puzzling as it would appear to be the worst product Wiki I have ever seen. First it is missing a plethora of other pertinent information. Example Altec Lansing's parent company, EVI is mentioned only as a seller of the company to Telex in some weirdly worded statement: 'from the middle 1980's until 1995, when Telex, who had purchased Altec Lansing's parent company, EVI Audio, Inc'No mention of when EVI purchased or resurrected the company prior to selling it.
I believe this is a hodge podge of information from many, many different authors with little regard for the article as a whole.- 21:32, 30 January 2011 (UTC)Agreed. No mention of? - 15:31, 18 May 2011 (UTC)The pictures are not helping. They show somewhat trivial recent consumer goods, when the company's reputation was based on many decades of building large professional studio monitors, PA systems and cinema sound installations. I will try to locate some historical photos. 10:57, 1 January 2014 (UTC) The article needs to be clearer as to how exactly a name which used to be on serious hi-fi equipment is now turning up branded onto the tiny toy stereo speakers (basically tweeters) built into. It almost would have been more respectful to simply let the name die.
17:05, 1 June 2014 (UTC)I started working at Altec Lansing in Oklahoma City about August 1983. This is how I remember the Altec Lansing history from 1983:University Sound was already a brand under Altec Lansing. The company filed Chapter 11 in September 1983. Gulton Industries bought Altec about 1985. As I understand, they leveraged recently purchased Electro-Voice (EV) to raise the capital. Within six months Mark IV Industries bought Gulton.
The then EV president became the president of a new audio division called Mark IV Audio. Some of the brands under this division over the next 10 years were Altec Lansing, Dynacord, EV, Ivie, Klark-Teknik, Midas, University Sound, Vega.
Approximately 1987 a licensing agreement was reached for Sparkomatic to use Altec Lansing branding on their consumer products. The Altec Lansing consumer products were very successful and Sparkomatic was renamed Altec Lansing Technologies. For a number of years there were commercial/professional Altec Lansing products from the original compny, and consumer products from another company licensed to use the name. Mark IV Industries sold the audio division about 1994 to Greenwich Street Partners. Greenwich had recently purchased Telex Communications and made Telex the management structure for the audio group. Telex combined Altec and EV sales/marketing in 1995 and closed the Altec Lansing factory in OKC about 1998. The Altec brand was reduced to a few ceiling speakers.
Telex sold the Altec Lansing name to Altec Lansing Technologies around 2000. Briefly a professional division was created (2001 - 2006) offering ceiling speakers and larger speakers for commercial installations. Plantronics purchased Altec Lansing Technologies in 2006. Plantronics sold it to the present owner(s). Regards, Gary — Preceding comment added by 22:24, 7 January 2015 (UTC) Major PC computer speaker makers.
What was left out was they were one of the first to try and make 'hi end' speakers for computers with sub woofers,horn tweeters. I mean that was very rare for 2004.
They had the THX label also.One thing also.those speakers were very reliable. I'm still suing my MX 5021's in 2019. — Preceding comment added by 03:13, 29 March 2019 (UTC).
