Altec Lansing is one of the strongest and oldest competitors in the iPod speaker market. Altec has variety of headphones for you to choose from. At the moment, Altec offers three different sets BackBeat earphones which include Titanium 326, Plus 206, and Classic 106. All these earphone models are priced with a difference of about $10. The Altec Lansing BackBeat Titanium 306 headphones are priced at $79.99 but you can get a pair for $40 online. You will not be disappointed as the sound quality provided by the headphones is worth the money you pay for it.
Not only, the Titanium 306 headphones are reasonably priced but also they offer incredible experience. The headphones come with four sets of silicon tips, which allow you to find the comfortable and snug fit which can block out a good amount of noise. Another good thing about the headphones is that the Altec Lansing has provided the cloth mesh to cover the 46-inch long cable in place of using rubber or plastic. The cloth mesh will prolong the age of the headphones as the rubberized covering has tendency to crack after some time if you use the headphones in cold for long time.
The 46-inch cable ends up in a small and straight jack instead of L-shaped jack. The jack is small and will fit any standard sized recessed headphone jack that you music player has but there is no built-in mic, which will allows you to make calls on your cell phone. However, straight headphone plug has its disadvantage that it is less likely to hold up for long time as compared to the L-shaped jacks, if you hit the plug accidentally too many times. The Titanium 326 earphones are the only headphones in Altec’s BackBeat line, which comes with a gray neoprene case for keeping the headphones safe.
Most important feature any headphone is its sound quality. The BackBeat Titanium 326 will not disappoint you in that department as they sound very good and gives you the value for the money. The headphones have a lot of bass along with providing good detail and clarity. The Altec claims that the headphone have frequency response of 10Hz-20KHz, which is quite solid for a headphone.
