Altec Lansing outs Muzx Ultra and Muzx Core earphones

Altec Lansing MZX606

Altec Lansing seems to have understood the very fact that music is the ultimate personal expression of lifestyle, be it for audiophiles or chic fashionistas. The company has now rolled out its yet another advanced in-ear headphones which deliver remarkable audio clarity, the Muzx Ultra (MZX606).

Designed with complete elegance, the audio quality from this new equipment puts forth a balanced and rich signal, precisely the way music is intended from the original recording. The frequency response is broad from 20Hz to 20kHz, thereby offering users adequate clarity throughout the mid and high ranges with bass.

The exceptional 26dB isolation fends off the listener from irrelevant background noise like traffic, engine noise and crowds. The in-line remote permits users to regulate an iPhone or iPod effortlessly, whereas its in-line microphone makes an effective transition to telephone calls.

“The Muzx Ultra earphones are an exciting product for us. Our passion for music is engineered into the line to create a premium earphone with exceptional sound that stands up against much more expensive competitors,” commented Will Squier, Altec Lansing product manager. “Earphones are so prevalent in our everyday lives that they have also become a form of personal expression, and these headphones complement even the most unique personal style.”

Apart from this, the stylish peripheral uses single balanced armature technology that offers enhanced sound from less power and an extensive range of audible frequencies. The technology differs from traditional drivers by using a variable position armature floating in a magnetic field. The armature shifts to control a diaphragm to create the exact sound when a particular current is applied.

The attractive design is industrial yet timeless and is a matching accessory for any look. The 46-inch cable has a precision-engineered strain relief component at the driver and another separate strain relief component at the gold plated 3.5mm jack. Users on-the-go will be delighted with the distinctive cord design that reduces friction and with Altec’s SnugFit design that can be worn comfortably on a ride cross-town or cross-country. Besides, the earphones bundle together an eight-piece fitting kit and a carrying case.

The Altec Lansing Muzx line of headphones has also been expanded with two new models, including the Muzx Core (MZX206) and the Muzx Extra (MZX406). The Muzx Core sports a huge 10mm Neodymium driver for crystal clear audio and an in-line microphone. While, the Muzx Extra enables users to enjoy the richness of deep tones and compatible devices with a full-featured Apple in-line remote.

The company offers users the Ultimate Sound Guarantee. The Muzx Ultra earphones will be made available in October 2010 through Amazon and the official website. The Muzx Core earphones can be purchased now for $29.99 (approx Rs. 1,375), whereas the trendy Muzx Extra headphones will be hitting shelves in October for $49.95 (approx Rs. 2,288).
