Altec Lansing BackBeat Pro
Sure, your iPod came with free earphones, but does that mean they're any good? Anyone who's ever used them on a crowded train or noisy street can tell you you really have topump up the volume to hear your usic clearly, and you know what that leads to...yeah, deafness. Altec Lansing wants to save your hearing--and doesn't a hundred bucks sound like a reasonable price? The Backbeat Pro earphones were designed to block out all ambient noise so you can listen at a safe, low volume, and it does it with an eight piece fit kit complete with dual flange technology to keep outside noise where it belongs. Underneath the two flanges are full range mini speakers with built in amps that give you balanced, low-distortion sound that won't bust your eardrums.

Altec Lansing Stage Gig
Often, we think the only things missing from our Rock Band nights are lights, amps and a fog machine. Altec Lansing's got us taken care of one one front with the Stage Gig floor amp, designed to pump up your gaming with realistic looks and killer specs...just plug your PlayStation, Wii or Xbox in and enjoy the bone shattering bass and clear treble this tour sized portable wonderbox brings. If you want to really wreck it, you can easily link two together...not that we're recommending that, as it may warrant police action. There's volume control, too, in case your neighbors don't fully appreciate the charms of The Clash at full blast.
