NO, THAT'S NO typo, and you have not read wrong. This is a 2.2 speaker system for PCs that has been introduced by Altec Lansing. The 2.2 in the name is to indicate the inclusion of a bass component speaker in each of the satellites instead of a single sub-woofer box.The 'Expressionist' has dual down-firing, radiating subwoofers built into each base. The system contains subwoofers within the system's freestanding, cone-shaped body - thus eliminating the need for a third, bass-amplifying component.

The cone-shaped architecture adds significant acoustic value to the speaker system. Four inch (100mm) long-throw subwoofers are built into the base of each speaker. Engineered with two 111 inch (40mm) drivers, mid-and high-frequencies are compartmentalized. It also has auxiliary input to provide connection to MP3, CD and DVD players. The Altec Lansing Expres¬sionist BASS (FX3022) sys¬tem will be available at an estimated street.
