Klipsch Image S3 Review

 

Outstanding sound, fairly priced

The Klipsch S3 line of headphones delivers fantastic sound for an unbeatable price ; Noise-isolating technology ; Comes in 4 different colors for your personal preference ; Oval shaped ear plugs provide a very comfortable experience for extended wear

Not the greatest sounding headphones, but worth it for the selling price ; Only comes in 4 colors

Although these headphones deliver quality sound at a decent price, they are lacking in a variety of styles and therefore are given a rating of 4.

Klipsch Image S3 Headphones

 

While Klipsch's Image S3 will stand up to multiple drops and does a great job repelling liquids, it won't take much force to pull the headphones from your ears. Another big drawback is the sound quality, which earned dismal scores in our lab tests....

Cheaper than rrp and very clear

 

Although the service from Play.com this time was slower than expected, so I waited more than 6 days to get these. But it was to a point worth the wait.

Excellent Earphones

 

Bass is superb and nice clean treble. I have used them at full volume on some quite heavy music to put them through paces and there is only a occasional loss of stability when they are maxed on ipod touch. Set of 3 different sized coverings but the...

great earphones

 

don't listen to all those people who have rated this 2/3 stars as they are by far the best earphones i have ever had; extremely durable, comfortable and no they do not pull when you are wearing them.

Terrible

 

I have just received these this morning and have them on now, and i must say they are very poor. There is no bass, too much treble. Have even tried to alter my ipod with no luck. Sorry play.com they are coming back to you asap.

Consumer review (newegg.com)

Good for the money

 

Other than that, good in-ear phones for the price.

Sound quality is on point for the money (~$20). Plays music just fine and isolates sound well

I also own S4's; these are definitely not S4's. The lower sound quality is noticeable and the construction is a bit cheap. The rubber ear inserts feel plastic-y and are not as comfortable; these are probably the worst aspect

Great No Frills PSU

 

For those that have trouble keeping them in, I'd suggest rotating them 180 degrees and looping the wire behind the ear. Then move the slide up to make them comfortably snug. This provides a good flexible strain isolation from donw the cable.

Oval tip is not just a marketing feature - it really does increase comfort and fit ; The sound is good and with quite adequate Bass unless you're into Hip-Hop, I guess. The more natural bass of classical music comes out just fine
