Altec Lansing, a division of Plantronics, Inc., today unveiled its new BackBeat line of stereo headphones and headsets, developed specifically for digital media, music and communication use. The new line features high-quality acoustic design in combination with a personalized fit to reduce background noise and deliver a vibrant, balanced audio experience.
Developed to deliver premium audio and communication experiences to price-conscious consumers, the new BackBeat corded portfolio includes three new headphone products and two microphoned models ? each featuring a 3.5mm, gold plated adapter plug compatible with most MP3 players and smartphones (including iPod, iPhone, Motorola Razr V31 and Blackberry Storm).
Developed as an upgrade to in-box, bundled headphones, the new BackBeat models leverage Altec Lansing's legendary speaker technology in combination with a distinctly snug, sound-isolating in-ear fit. Each model is distinguished by its own calibrated, studio-grade components along with interchangeable eartips designed to ensure a custom, secure in-ear fit essential for delivering the portfolio's signature sound clarity and range.
