Although Altec Lansing's BackBeat Plus 206 earbuds may be a slight step down from the BackBeat 326 earphones, they offer very good sound for the money.
For $30, the Altec Lansing BackBeat Plus 206 headphones offer an excellent value and make a great replacement for the stock earbuds that came with your MP3 player.

The earphones terminate in a gold-plated straight plug that is narrow enough to fit into recessed headphone jacks, such as the one found on the first-gen iPhone.

The earbuds are relatively tiny and the eartips comfortable. We had no problems achieving a secure fit with a reasonable amount of sound isolation.

Given the price point, we were plenty impressed with the overall audio quality. The bass isn't as tight as what you get from much higher-end headphones, but you do get some low-end as well as a fair amount of detail and clarity
