Rating  - My favorite Headphone ever.
I have much experience in Headphones. I have listened to and owned many high-end headphones and in-ear monitors (earphones). The Klipsch Image x10 are my favorite of the bunch. They offer the best package deal that I have heard. Etymotics may be more clear, but at the sacrifice of sound stage and bass. The super.fi 5 pro and triple.fi 10 pro have great bass and sound stage, but they lack in comfort and convenience. Shure earphones offer comfort and good separation, but they do not feature the warm and pleasing sound signature as the Image x10.
These earphones have it all: comfort, sound quality, strong and accurate bass, style, sound stage, separation, clarity, and so much more.
I'd say these could only be faulted for the lack of replaceable cables (which should not be a problem with normal use) and slight micro-phonics in the cables (which can be reduced by clipping the cables to your shirt).
I would advise anyone who values quality, comfort, usability, and MUSIC to get a pair.
At $200 they are a steal!
Rating - OMG
OMG ... that was basically my first impression when I put them on. Having used Shure headphones for a while, I'm blown away by the incredible sound these Klipsch put out. The bass is great, way better than Shure's, the mids are great and the highs are good, not great, sometimes high's sound to "pitchy" for my taste. The carrying case included is very high quality (on par with the headphones), only disappointment is that I tried to fit my iPod Video (5th gen) with the iSkin cover on, and it basically didn't close up when I stored the headphones, but no big deal if you have an MP3 player with a thin cover. Fitting will take a while, it took me around 15-20 mins to get the right ear gel and wire positioning for optimal sound. Once that was done, putting them on was a breeze, but be sure no one else messes with your wire position, like my wife did, because putting them back to the original position will set you back a couple of mins. All in all, great set of headphones with great sound, comfort, accessories and quality. Trust me, they'll blow you away!!

Klipsch Custom-3 In-Ear Noise Isolating Earphone
I have always been a huge fan of Klipsch speakers and still own an outstanding pair of speakers. I recently bought a SONY MP3 player and was looking for a more comfortable pair of earphones. The great reviews for sound and comfort on the Klipsch earphones encouraged me to make the purchase.
These are definitely much more comfortable than the plastic ones that come with the MP3. However, I am surprised - and probably shouldn't be - that the sound quality is not that much better in the Klipsch set than was afforded by the original SONY plastic earphones.
My conclusion is that I could have saved a great deal of money and simply upgraded the SONY earphones to a more comfortable pair and would have had the same great sound quality. That is my recommendation to anyone else considering purchasing new earphones.
Rating  - Low Quality at High Price
The fit is great, the design is wonderful, and the cases they come with are sturdy. The plastic cord is cheap, will not hold up to a gym environment and the left ear piece was defective. At mid-high volumes, there was a rattling noise that wouldn't go away. I cleaned the earpiece with the tool provided, tried a different audio source, but nothing worked. Quite dissapointment and disgraceful for a $349 retail price. Made in China, avoid and save your money.
