With noise-isolation technology and full-range balanced-armature drivers, these Klipsch Reference Series X6i earbud headphones produce rich, natural audio with minimal ambient noise, so your music is all you hear. An integrated remote offers simple control over music functions.
I've previously owned two pairs of Sony XBA-H1's (<$150) but due to them being discontinued I decided to give these Klipsch a try. Overall sound quality is OK, with good mid's and high's, but the lack of bass was the dealbreaker for me. Other features like the inline remote is placed too high and the cord feels really cheap. The only thing I liked was the comfortable fit.
Needless to say, I returned these the very next day. If you are going to spend this kind of money for premium sound, look elsewhere.
Listen to your favorite tunes in brilliant clarity with these Sony XBAH1 earbud headphones that feature hybrid 2-way driver units with BA full-range and 9mm dynamic drivers. The cord with a serrated finish is tangle-resistant.
These are some of the best sounding in-ear headphones I've ever owned. They are a little pricey but I decided to spend a little extra just for the styling, quality, and brand. The fit is absolutely fantastic out of the box (there are 3 sets of silicone and foam silicone earbuds). Not a huge fan of the red and black cord and it also doesn't have any in-line controls which is probably the only setback for me. Would rather give this 4.5 stars but the sound more than makes up for it.
