In such a bizarre situation of recession, how would you react when you have recession proof devices that boast of offering comfort and quality features at an affordable price? Obviously there would be a “Wow’ factor in your reaction. The new Image S4 & S2 in-ear headphones from Klipsch lets you phase out in your private world even in a noisy bus or from the chitchat in a stuffy airplane. The two S4 & S2 can be availed at a much lower price compared to Klipsch’s other headphones, and make use of the same proprietary ear tips like their costlier predecessors.
Mark Casavant, vice president of product development for Klipsch, said, “People have less discretionary income these days. Therefore, we felt it was vital to develop reasonably priced, high-performance headphones that go above and beyond what you’d expect from the stock earbuds that come with your MP3 player.”
Klipsch’s patent-pending oval ear tips boast of fitting the contours of your ear canals with ease. You can wear them for longer hours, without putting stress on the pressure points in the ear like the circular shaped designs. The ear tips also allow higher noise-cancellation by blocking the ambient noise and providing amazing bass.
As the good seal lessens the background noise you need not switch on the volume loudly. Besides, the in-ear headphones have moving coil designs with controlled damping that in time aids them to offer excellent sound like a balanced armature. The S4 also has hot rod dual magnet motor structure which is capable of increasing damping factor.
The Image S4 in-ear headphone come in piano black or silver finish along with 3 unique-sized oval ear tips, ear tip cleaning tool. It can be put easily in a crush-resistant aluminum case. While the Image S2 comes in piano black with 3 different-sized oval ear tips as well as a Snap-tite cloth carrying pouch.
Either of the headphones can work with iPod, iPhone and many other handheld devices with the standard 3.5mm headphone jack. The Klipsch S4 and S2 in-ear headphones can be your with the price tag of just $79 and $49, respectively, whereas its other headphones are prized at $129.99 and $349.99 (approx Rs. 6,730 and Rs. 18,122).
