By (cnet.com)

The Klipsch Image X5 earphones are ultracompact, lightweight, and comfortable, and they offer great sound quality. The contoured eartips offer a secure fit with exceptional sound isolation, and the plug is uniquely designed for durability. Includes a ...

The Klipsch Image X5 earphones have a thin, tangle-prone wire that raises some concern for durability, and they're pricey. Shorter warranty period than competition from Shure.

The Klipsch Image X5 earphones are a bit of an investment, but they're worth it if you demand excellent audio quality and have had trouble with earbud fit in the past.

In fact, a good pair of earphones could carry you through several rounds of...

Klipsch Image X5 review - headphone reviews and video

By (stuff.tv)

American speaker giant Klipsch has a wicked way with tiny sound-isolating headphones. Will the X5's sound belie the size?
