Why are IMAGE earphones unique and worth the value?
IMAGE is the world's smallest, lightest full-range earphone design. Meant to be heard and not seen, these tiny headphones are big on performance, style and comfort. IMAGE is loaded with our most advanced comfort features, plus its remarkably lightweight design places minimal pressure on the ears.
Why is it beneficial for IMAGE earphones to be small and light?
First of all, your ear is a sensitive area and the lighter the earphone, the better as it puts less pressure on the ear canal, resulting in extreme comfort. Secondly, IMAGE's small size allows it to automatically adjust to the center of the ear canal, meaning users can easily insert and remove the earphones as well as find the perfect seal. Thirdly, IMAGE's compact dimensions make toting them around virtually hassle-free.
What makes IMAGE earphones so comfortable?
Unlike other in-ear headphones on the market, our proprietary Contour Ear Gels are anatomically shaped to accurately fit inside the human ear canal. These soft, oval silicon tips reduce ear fatigue and provide excellent noise isolation for superior audio performance.
How durable are IMAGE earphones?
Klipsch put IMAGE through extensive "real world" testing to ensure long-lasting durability. You'll find reliable strain relief at every cable connection point to help prevent wire damage. Furthermore, IMAGE's sleek, streamlined black "tail" reduces cable stress and strain as well as serves as an acoustic dampener that minimizes cable noise. However, cable wear occurs over time so you should always take special care of your earphones.
Why are IMAGE ear gels oval-shaped instead of round?
When Klipsch started studying three-dimensional ear impressions, it was discovered that nearly everyone has an oval-shaped ear canal. The company couldn't believe that no one else had yet considered the anatomical shape of the ear canal when designing in-ear headphones. Aside from their comfort value, our oval ear gels load quickly and easily into the ear canals as well as virtually disappear from view.
Why does IMAGE include a variety of ear tip sizes?
Ear canal measurements vary. Therefore, each IMAGE model comes with five different ear gel sizes: small, medium, and large single flange designs as well as small and large double flange designs. Extra small sizes are available via klipsch.com. Such variety allows Klipsch to fit more of the population than its competition.
