    Re: Klipsch Headphones/Earphones

    So what's the difference between the iGroove and the SXT? or the HG for that matter? Has the CS-700 or 500 or whatever it was hit the market yet? I think anything wireless would be a big deal on campus - especially if you could stream from your computer.

    Free food is an amazing thing on campus. At the beginning of every school year the local Chipotle offers a free burrito for just the one day. There will be a line over 4 blocks long that takes about 4 hours to get through. When doing AES stuff, if we don't offer free pizza we only get about 10 people to show. With free pizza, about 100 people will show up. IEEE does a bit better and can overflow a 400 person lecture hall - they're offering better pizza though. On the Quad, a lot of companies hook up with a local pizza company and then hand out fliers on the quad for a free pizza (yea, whole pizza). They're usually credit card companies that have a corner of the restraunt setup for signing people up for the credit cards. It usually takes about 90 minutes to get through those lines. However, about 3/4 of the people that show up leave right away when they realize it's a credit card company...students aren't that stupid Wink

    I was under the impression that a deer stand, even with bait, often results in hours of twiddling your thumbs...

    SXT is a more compact version of iGroove.  HG is  iGroove with a black high gloss paint.  CS series are planning on shipping soon....

    oooo lookly who's got their own Forum section! Congrats Thump! ah, but what SHADE of high gloss black?

    I think we could arrange the MCM stacks. How about a Klipsch-sponsored concert in the quad, with headphone and RoomGroove demo tents?

    Talk about getting a BUZZ going.... 

    I'll bring the PA.

    Yeah Mikey,

    We got our own little box to play in...

    Since I can't find a good picture on the web I am gonna have to get a picture of your little speakers with a drum set in the middle to demonstrate the Texas Headphone effect.  Could you duct tape those to your head for the photo?  You do drum don't you?  I am sure you can get some duct tape from Trey.  He uses it for everything, even flossing.

    I wonder if you could get the MCM's on top of the 600's or is that the only way for you to store it in your House of Klipsch?

    But make sure you set up a stereo pair cause one stack is just not enough!  Have you ever had it so loud that the Aqueous Humour in your eyeballs modulates blurring your vision?

    This is your word for the day...Test on Friday!

     

    Don't stick that Texas Headphone in your ear!

    Previous owner used the SW and LF bins from the 600 system with the upper horns of the MCM system. Big and Ugly, but really did the job. That's why these MWM-S are in very good condition (except why does everyone rob the drivers from these bins?)

    The closest I get to headphonus majorus is lying on my back in between a pair of CW's. Those bass notes come rolling across the floor like tumbleweeds. 

    btw, Roy is the only one I let call me Mikey, mmmk?

    Uhm the cable rumble is most headfi community calls it microphonic.
    Everything else has been nicely explained by Mark. I have used many earphones before, and yes, I own the smallest earphones like etymotic before(Not sure whether Klipsch will be even smaller) and it did suffer from microphonic. And I had to put the cable over my ears to reduce the microphonic effect.

    Re: Klipsch Headphones/Earphones

    I own Etymotic ER-4S and they are an excellent IEM. Their foamies provide exceptional noise reduction. In terms of isolation, it's the best I have heard rivalling custom earphones out there from Ultimate Ears, Westone, Sensaphonics.

    It's nice to see Klispch finally jumping into the IEM market. I'm also very eager to hear how Custom 3 would compare to many top IEMs out there.

    I Love iFi Sound signature a lot, it would be nice if Custom 3 has similar sound signature.

    For some reason, I thought my $100.00 headphones would sound better than my Cornwalls.

    Right up to the ear and all.

    Another lesson learned.

    Tells me what a good pair of speakers I have!

    You won't FEEL the bass, that's for sure. I have heard of folks putting bass shakers on their chairs for when they wear headphones.

    Uhm actually Ultrasone Edition 9 headphone when you pair it with a proper amp like m902/Rudistor RPX-33, you WILL FEEL the bass down your spine. :D Ultrasone Edition 9 is pretty well known for its quality bass.

    Just that Nth level of respect, that's all. Nothing personal you understand. I have to keep it all business in Indy.

    Michael,

     Is that the ear cheese that results from listening to Texas Headphones?
