One of the first speaker systems developed for the convergence of music-enabled cell phones and wireless audio streaming, the Altec Lansing T515 combines three audio devices in one: a portable stereo system, a speaker phone, and a wearable headset. The system coordinates the devices in imaginative ways. Say you’re wirelessly streaming your tunes from your phone to the T515 speaker or headset when a voice call rings in. With the touch of a button, you can pick up the call from t…

I was looking for both a desktop speaker and headset (for working out and general entertainment) for my Blackjack II music. After hours of headset comparisons I decided on one and then went on to find a desktop speaker and stumbled upon this Altec Lansing desktop/travel speaker with a detachable headset. There is a little door in between the speakers which holds a small unit into which you plug wired, very comfortable earphones (and I have small ears). The pairing is very easy and the sound is pretty impressive especially considering the size of the shiny black speaker unit. Right now I am listening to XM radio through the headphones and it sounds amazing. I am extremely impressed and I am very critical. By the way I did not order the other headset cause this does it all!!! Oh and it comes with this nice case which holds the speaker and earphones. The price on the box was $99. . .I got it for $34 plus shipping but it would have definately been worth the $99 as well!!

This unit is very sleek, very straightforward, and it works! I wanted a bluetooth stereo headset for my cell phone, and I am happy I chose this. I like that it’s not a bulky headset that looks obvious; rather I can use any little earbuds I like (comes with a pair) and just plug them in to the receiver unit. You need to clip the unit on to a pocket or whatever but it’s very light. It’s the same as having a little iPod shuffle clipped somewhere. I find the range just fine, seems to be around four to six metres so if your phone is in your pocket or purse or on your desk, it works beautifully. The bonus in this for me was the external speaker – I really only wanted the bluetooth earphones but I’m using the external speaker a lot! The sound quality is good. It’s not full sized sound, but I wasn’t expecting that. It sounds very nice and it is incredibly portable. I would not want to have paid the $120 it sold for originally in Canada, but with the deal I got on Amazon I am completely thrilled with it!

I like everything about it except the speakers distort horribly if you turn the volume up. I read reviews that indicated distortion at high volume, and I would expect distortion because of the speaker’s small size, but these speakers seem to do it excessively. Sometimes the volume level needed to eliminate distortion is not adequate enough to be heard clearly. I only recommend these speakers because I’m not sure better ones are on the market, considering the few options available for people in the market for bluetooth speakers.
