I recently purchase a pair of the Klipsch IMAGE s4 and have be use they for about two week now . and I must say I be very impress by this product . my previous set of earbud be make by v-moda and , although I enjoy they , I feel there be a bit to much bass for my liking . when the V-modas 's bit the dust I base my purchase of the Klipsch on the fact that the stereo system in the office where I work have Klipsch speaker and I like the clean open sound of they . I figure I would take a chance that the earbud have that same quality . the image s4 seem to I to have a wider soundstage than the v-moda . what I be hear more clearly now be the rhythm guitar in some song and the background instrumentation in other that I would never hear before . the best part be that the Klipsch bud do not skimp on the bass response . it be there . it be noticeable . and it be clean . I enjoy anything from classical to country to jazz to classic rock and these bud do justice to they all . my only problem be with the silicone tip . I can not really blame Klipsch because I have never come across a tip that be `` really '' comfortable . for I the large tip be too big , the small one too small and the medium one not real comfortable . I have order a set of the Comply tx-100 tip in the hope it may be the solution . great sound separation with excellent bass response . great bud for the price !
