Klipsch Image S4i review

 

The Klipsch Image S4i earphones are nearly identical to their sibling, the Image S4 . They provide the same comfortable fit and stellar sound quality, but also offer the added bonus of an integrated mic and call answer button, as well as volume...

The Klipsch Image S4i earphones offer exceptional sound quality for the money. They're also very comfortable and, the package includes a few handy extras such as a storage box and cleaning tool. Plus, there's a call answer button, mic, and iPod...

The cable of the Image S4i earphones is pretty thin and tangle-prone, and the included eartips may not work for everyone.

The Klipsch Image S4i earphones offer up sound quality on par with and better than sets that cost many times as much, and they include compelling extras for iPhone and iPod users.

"My favorite when they work"

 

I've had the last 2 generations of these earphones. The sound, noise isolation, remote w/ mic, and looks make a great product. However, I've had the last 3 break on me within 3 years. Klipsch warranty covered it up to 2 years and replaced them easily...

Consumer review (cnet.com)

awful... they pull out of your ears when worn properly.

 

if your in the market for ear plug type, i recommend the Shure SE215, by far superior product in the same price range in EVERY respect. they dont have a mic but it can be attached easily. If your not going to get the shures then a suitable substitute...

sound is acceptable. chord is light weight. different ear sizes included.

The chord is light and will prob not last. the Mic is super bulky. even when the plugs are worn properly with the clip, and wires over the ear, they pull out of your ear like crazy.

"Great sound, poor quality cabling."

 

Exceptional value for the money but if they don't hold up to normal wear and tear what good are they?

Sound is amazing, comapct design is fantastic and the iphone funcionality is great.

Thin, cheap wiring wore through in less than 10 months of light use. Only wore these while riding to work and back on my motorcycle.
