These come with an eight piece kit with interchangeable ear bud sizes. This product comes with what seems to be either rubber, or silicone ear buds and a black 46” cord. The cord is not coiled and cannot be folded. It is thin, flexible, durable and black. These earbud headphones come with a gold plated connector that allows them to be compatible with laptops, PC’s, most mp3 players, iPhones and other Apple products. The cord is 3.5mm in length. As other Altec headphones, these ear buds are designed with SnugFit a new technology which allows the rubber/silicone ear buds to mold and transform to your ear shape. This SnugFit design allows for ultimate comfort and ensures that the headphones do not fall out during fast paced, high endurance activities. Another benefit to having in-ear headphones that fit is that you will be rid of annoying background noise. This item also comes with left/right earbud identification, 10Hz-20kHz frequency response for the best transcription possible, 104 dB for extra sensitivity in pitch and 16 ohms to ensure power and quality. Many users of this product report that the sounds are received crisp, not hollow, the bass is pretty intense and the price is fair. Others believe the price is a little steep and the right angle cord that they come with is not to their liking. Despite positive and negative reviews the decision is ultimately yours. Lansing Backbeat Dynamic Ear Bud Headphones are simple, rugged, have awesome sounds and can be purchased for $80.00 in most electronic stores. If you’re looking to purchase these as a gift for someone, I would do some more research to make sure the $80 is worth the value of the product, due to positive and negative opinions.
