The Backbeat 206 (aka "BackBeat Plus Mobile") sits in the middle of the line; its neodymium-backed drivers offer a frequency response of 30 Hz to 18.5 KHz -- significantly better than the entry-level Backbeat 106, but falling short of the top-of-the-line Backbeat 326. It weighs in at less than one ounce and comes with three different sizes of silicone cushions to ensure a snug but comfortable fit. The Backbeat 206 comes with a gold-plated plug and nearly four feet of tangle-free cloth cord.
