## Description

Introducing the Whisper Active Noise Cancelling Headphones by Altec Lansing. Keep the music in and outside noises out with the built-in active noise cancelling technology. Designed for everyday use, these headphones feature soft ear cushions and a foldable design to make them perfect for travel, work from home video calls to just casual music listening. The Whisper Headphones have a 12 hour battery life which means all day music listening at your fingertips! With music controls along the earcups, switch from track to track or answer/decline an incoming phone call in a breeze. Just Ask allows you to use your Siri or Google voice assistant to make phone calls, send texts, and more! We recommend fully charging the headphones before initial use for best performance, approx. 2-3 hours. To pair the headphones press and hold the power button for 2-3 seconds until you use lights flashing red and blue. From your device select ‘AL Whisper’ and pair. The lights will turn blue and flash slowly once paired. The Noise Cancellation button is located next to the volume controls. Press this button to turn on the feature; the LED indicator will turn green while ANC is on. The built-in microphone will allow you to talk to Siri, Google Assistant or use for phone calls.

Review: 10 better than Beats! - Awesome sound and fit! Easy to use. Best ones I have ever had. I bought two more just incase I ever lose mine. 10 times better Beats or any other brand!
Review: Best ever. Awesome! - This is the best set of headphones I have ever had since I had a professional set as a young teen. I have several other Altec Lansing headphones and speakers. These are by far the best. I listen to lots of classical music and movie soundtracks. I am hearing instruments I never heard before with other headphones. This is just amazing!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 10 better than Beats!
*by J***A on November 8, 2025*

Awesome sound and fit! Easy to use. Best ones I have ever had. I bought two more just incase I ever lose mine. 10 times better Beats or any other brand!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best ever. Awesome!
*by D***R on April 25, 2024*

This is the best set of headphones I have ever had since I had a professional set as a young teen. I have several other Altec Lansing headphones and speakers. These are by far the best. I listen to lots of classical music and movie soundtracks. I am hearing instruments I never heard before with other headphones. This is just amazing!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good, new but not good sound bass yet
*by F***A on September 11, 2023*

It arrived so late due to courier. The sound is not of that quality but for the price is worth. Altec Lansing say that the drivers must be subjected to warm up/burn in for its maximum quality to come to fruition. I wait for the right time to see if the seller is right about waiting for warm up drivers.
