Gone are the days when high-definition audio meant loud noise through bulky earphones. Ideal for computers, laptops, or portable devices such as MP3 players, Altec Lansing's BackBeat PRO earphones provide studio-quality sound through lightweight, miniaturized speakers by isolating ambient noise rather than competing with it. Altec Lansing's single-balanced technology allows you to hear 'true' sound at relatively lower volume levels than other earphones, while the BackBeat PRO's design balances high-definition audio, comfort, and affordability.

Studio-Quality Sound at an Affordable Price

With the BackBeat PRO earphones, you will hear just what a sound engineer or professional musician hears in the studio. Recipient of three Innovations Design and Engineering Awards, Altec Lansing uses single-balanced armature technology in the BackBeat PRO. The armature is a high-precision microstructure that generates and moves the natural sound through the earphone chamber. The result is high-definition audio that matches your ears' natural response to sound, making for an intimate, distortion-free listening experience.

Comfort, Not Competition for an Optimal Listening Experience

Chief among the many benefits of the armature technology is the miniature size. Whereas traditional earphones are often heavy or ill-fitting, BackBeat PRO earphones provide a comfortable, secure fit within the ear canal. Because no two ears are alike, three sizes (small, medium, and large) of flexible SnugFit ear tips are included.

These tips are designed to conform to your ear, providing a custom fit as well as a superior seal to block out ambient noise. Rather than competing with outside noise, sound is transmitted directly into your ear, so you can enjoy full audio definition at lower volumes.

Lightweight and Tangle-Free

Your music is portable, and your earphones should be too. Weighing a mere half ounce, the earphones are extremely lightweight. The BackBeat PRO cable is tangle-free, so you won't need to wrap the earphones or untie cumbersome knots. In fact, the cord goes well beyond the ordinary, featuring braided reinforcement for strength and tangle-resistance, smooth PVC coating for friction dampening, and oxygen-free copper for a superior audio conduit. For added protection, a soft-sided, lightweight carrying case is also included.

Compatible with Computers and MP3 Players

BackBeat PRO earphones are compatible with desktop and laptop computers, as well as with a wide range of MP3 audio devices, including the iPod and iPhone. Whether you are mixing sound in your home studio or listening to your favorite album on an airplane, the BackBeat PRO audio technology ensures that you won't miss a beat.

5 of 5 Almost perfect Saturday, September 19, 2009
Myles F from Willis, Texas  

My Altec Lansing UHP606 earphones are great. The sound quality is exceptional. The delivery was fast and arrived sooner than stated. The only complaint is the earphones did not come with the Back Beat PRO tangle free cable.

5 of 5 Fantastic phones Saturday, September 19, 2009
A Customer from Phoenix, AZ  
I have been an Altec-Lansing since the mid 70's and these phones do not dissapoint. They seem to sound less like the sound is being "injected" into the ear as all my other earbuds. They also do not get tangled up like my other phones. These are not the most expensive buds I have purchased, but they are the best!
