Superior Design
Based on our highly acclaimed Image X10 headphones, the X10i offers the absolute best in style, sound comfort and fit. It caters to discriminating, on-the-go listeners who are constantly playing music and taking phone calls.

The X10i headphone positions its in-line microphone and remote at the yoke—where the two cables meet at chest level—to create a more natural feel when answering calls and controlling music.

Because the microphone is a highly intelligible 360° design, you don’t have to talk down into it or hold it close to your mouth. The microphone also features echo cancellation, which keeps it from picking up surrounding noise, so you’ll always be heard crystal clear.

Luxurious Comfort

It doesn’t matter how great a pair of headphones sound if they are painful to wear. Unlike traditional, circular-shaped ear tips that put stress on the pressure points inside your ear, the X10i headphone utilizes patented oval ear tips that naturally fit the shape of your ear canals, making them extremely comfortable and virtually impossible to feel.

Additionally, these exclusive ear tips produce a perfect acoustic seal, which minimizes outside noise so you can enjoy your music at lower, safer volumes.

Magnificent Sound

Inside each ear piece, which is made of machined aluminum and finished in anodized copper, you’ll find an exclusive full-range armature micro-speaker with a tuned bass-reflex system that delivers lifelike dynamics, sonic clarity and booming bass.

Please be aware that the X10i headphone is not for casual listening. If you rip your digital music files using a poor compression format and low bit rate, this high-resolution Klipsch headset will uncover all the flaws in your content.

Additional Perks

The Image X10i headphone comes with a 2-year warranty and includes 5 pairs of different-sized ear tips, an airplane adaptor, a ¼-inch jack adaptor, a protective carrying pouch as well as a clothing clip.

Compatibility

While the Image X10i serves as a pair of premium headphones for any device with a 3.5 mm headphone jack, its mic and remote system handles the music and/or voice control of the following Apple products*:

iPhone 4

iPhone 3GS

iPod touch (2nd, 3rd, 4th generation)

iPod classic (120GB, 160GB)

iPod nano (4th, 5th, 6th generation)

iPod shuffle (3rd, 4th generation)

iPad

iPad 2

If you have an iPod touch or iPhone and Wi-Fi access, you can also use the Image X10i with VOIP (need an adapter for PC or Mac), Skype and iChat.

"...Slightly pricey, but not out of the price range of most - and the sleek and easy to find inline microphone is among the better we've seen on test."

"I greatly value travel devices that perform multiple functions. With these, I no longer need carry earplugs, which I otherwise wouldn't dream of traveling without."

Pocket-lint (2011-02-13 00:00:00)
by Dan Sung

"Headphones this size have absolutely no business sounding as good as they do. We have no idea what kind of black magic was involved in getting such rich bass from such tiny, tiny buds and we don’t want to know either. However many virgins were sacrificed is best left a mystery. The fact remains that the Klipsch Image X10i sound better than pretty much any in-ear headphones we’ve ever stuffed into our heads. What’s more, the amazing degree of noise isolation is second only to custom fit moulds and all thanks down to some beautifully designed oval ear tips which not only fit your aural canals like an aural glove but are also as comfy to wear as a set of silk undies..."

"Klipsch has taken its award-winning X10 buds and added an in-line mic mic to make/take calls. Pricey but worth the premium."

by Benny Har-Even (editor of trustedreviews.com)

"...If you've just got the iPhone 3GS or iPhone 4, or a recent iPod however, the X10i's are simply an outstanding choice. If you really want to hear every detail in your music, answer phone calls with a press of the button and have a comfortable listening experience then the X10i's really deliver."

"They're tiny, weigh nothing, are super comfortable and sound BIG ... Call quality is good. A wired connection is always better than bluetooth. We had no trouble hearing (obviously), but more importantly, our caller could hear us fine without us having to speak louder than a normal tone of voice."

by John Maiorano

"I thoroughly enjoyed wearing this headset. It produced a great sound and was extremely comfortable as long as you find the ear tip size that works best for you. MSRP of the Image X10i is a bit pricey at $349.99, but its versatility makes it a must-have for anyone."

by Todd Whitesel

"The Image X10is make a strong case for being ?the reference? in-ear headphones. Overall, the Image X10is offer excellent dynamics, clarity and definition. Their combination of comfort and way with music makes for an easy recommendation. Simply put, they are the best in-ear headphones I've heard."

"It seems like I can't find fault in these headphones. Part of the experience, glory and wonder come from the amazement that something this small and this comfortable can sound so good. It's like a spinal tap into your musical collection."

CrunchGear (2010-03-02 00:00:00)
by Jimin Brelsford

"Definitely the best sounding consumer-grade in-ear headphones I?ve ever listened to. The price tag matches the sound quality however. If you want good audio fidelity on your phone headset, you?ll be hard pressed to find something better than these."

PC Magazine (2010-02-26 00:00:00)
by Tim Gideon

"At $349.99 (direct), the Klipsch Image X10i is a serious investment; but this earphone pair with built-in iPhone controls, however, is well worth the price."

"For the discerning on-the-go music listener, the X10i is closer to a good, full-size headphone than most and the comfort is simply the icing on the cake."

"All told, this is definitely one of the nicer in-line microphones out there ..."

Indianapolis Star (2010-02-01 00:00:00)
by Erika Smith

"At loud volumes, the X10i and Ultimate Ears 700 earbuds sound similar, but the X10i earbuds will deliver an unexpected kick of bass, adding a new dimension to your music. At low levels, the X10i earbuds shine even more. Songs are well-rounded and crisp."
