About the Westone Adventure Series ALPHA
Serious sound for your next excursion
Serious sound for your next excursion
Durable, lightweight, and water-resistant, the Westone ALPHA earbuds work well in the elements.
On a tough trail or punishing path, the percussive pulse of a powerful playlist can propel you that extra mile. Westone's Adventure Series ALPHA earbuds are rugged, lightweight, and stay put as you move. Ten different eartip options ensure a secure fit.
Just like you, the ALPHA headphones don't let a little rain, snow, and sweat slow them down. The IPX3 water-resistant 'phones can take a lickin' and keep on kickin'.
A rich reputation for in-ear audio
Based in Colorado, Westone understands the active "rough on headphones" crowd. The company has spent decades mastering in-ear audio technology and design. For the rugged ALPHA earbuds, Westone included many of the sound characteristics found in their professional on-stage monitors and reference headphones.
So how do the ALPHA's sound? The soundstage is wide and the bass is impressively detailed, particularly for headphones built to brave the elements. Who knows, you might even use them when you're kicking back — not that you'd ever be caught relaxing!
Durable, reflective cable — with an iOS® remote
Coil the Westone ALPHA's cable around your ear for a snug fit. The tangle-resistant cord has a braided, reflective surface for visibility in low-light or bad weather. A rubberized three-button remote on the cord gives you convenient iPhone® control — play and pause music, skip forward and back, and adjust the volume. The built-in microphone also lets you take calls, easily controlled with the remote.
