Home > Consumer Reviews > Altec Lansing AHP10 Personal Audio Stereo Headphones

I bought a Walkman recently which I'm happy with, however, I hated the headhpones that came with it (they hurt my ears, gave me a headache, and did not stay in place while jogging). I ordered these and I am so happy with them. They sound better than what came with the cassette player and are sooooooooo comfortable that I almost forget I'm wearing them (they stay in place while exercising). At this price you can't go wrong. I'm getting a second pair.

I love these headphones. I am not an audiophile, but I do like my music to sound good. I haven't had any problems with the volume control. You simply have to adjust the volume on your device with the headphone's volume at about the middle, and then you get a full range of volume. I also think they are the most comfortable headphones I have worn. They don't squish your ears like some can. They stay in place very nicely. I am ordering a second pair for my husband.

I like them, the fit pretty well, sound quality is very good, though I would expect higher from Altec Lansing. Still by far the best in it's price range.

I wouldn't recommend it for production A/V use, but for online gaming, online talk features in IM software, as well as just a regular set of headphones, it's a good product.

I'm going to be brief. For the cost, they're okay headphones at first. The "headband" is a little irritating at first, but you can grow to ignore it. The volume control is a nice feature for quickly turning down the music when a coworker complains. However, the problem lies in it's durability. After approximately 3 months, the volume control casing split in two, exposing the small board and wires inside. Promptly giving it a quick fix (super glue), it worked fine again. Another month or so after that, the wires on the inside of the cable started to split, causing nasty scratches in the music that continued to get worse, and worse, and worse. Now, this was in an office environment, not getting bumped around while jogging, flung around by kids, or getting eaten by the dog. Normal wear and tear.

I would buy these again if my other option was sticking my arm in a woodchipper, but that's about it.

I love these headphones, they're amazing for only $10 and the volume control is really handy.
