Klipsch Unveils Image: World’s Smallest, Lightest In-Ear Earphones
Company makes a huge high-tech fashion statement with tiny audio accessory
Not only is it the world’s smallest and lightest
in-ear earphone design, Image from Klipsch
fuses lifestyle, technology, and fashion to offer
a personalized fit and deliver a precision-
tuned acoustic experience.
“Status symbol products such as the iPod®
have played a major role in making technology
fashionable,” said Tom Gospel, Klipsch program
management director. “Therefore, we found it necessary to
develop a stylish, must-have audio accouterment that would
bring better sound to our in vogue listeners.”
Image earphones utilize patent-pending Contour
Ear Gels, which are anatomically designed to
accurately fit inside the human ear canal. These
soft, oval silicon tips reduce ear fatigue
as well as provide an amazing seal for excellent
noise isolation and increased bass response. Because ear canal measurements vary, 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.
In order to continue Klipsch’s 60-plus years of delivering stunningly precise audio, Image earphones employ extended-
frequency exclusive KG926 balanced micro-armatures.
Featuring aluminum bodies that are finished in anodized
copper—Klipsch’s signature color—and high-gloss black
“tails,” Image earphones also include patent-pending
earphone nozzles with mechanical locking rings to prevent
the ear gels from getting lodged in a user’s ear.
Furthermore, Klipsch has gone to great lengths to ensure the
long-lasting durability of Image, up to and including its 50-
inch-long vinyl cables. The company has added appropriate
strain relief at every cable connection point to a avoid wire
damage.
Image earphones, which include a carrying case and pouch,
a ¼-inch adaptor, an airline adaptor, five sets of ear gels,
and a cleaning tool, are slated to launch in November.
