    Yesterday was an exciting day at Klipsch.  Aric and Jeff from Amazon.com came to our facility where we gave them the Klipsch Tour.  After lunch we sat down in the library and Sir Tom Gospel, Dr. Brad Cochlea and I gave them the lowdown on our headphone products and how happy we are with the way they turned out.  I showed them all the ear impressions that were taken at Indiana University for the study on fit with IMAGE and how deep you can potentially insert the PM's.  We showed them our HATS dummy that we still need a name for and of course the Hemi and Full Anechoic Chambers.  Jeff asked to shoot some videos of me explaining the products which will be posted on Amazon's website in the CE section.  So it will be interesting to see how that turns out.  Jeff also wants me to do a guest Blog on Amazon, so you should all give me suggestions on what I should talk about that interest you about headphones and their design and applications.  I will keep you posted on developments and where you can see Professor Thump doing his “dog and pony show”.

    The guest blog at Amazon is now up.  You can see the interview at:

    Wow.  These products really are making some serious noise, or rather music to Klipsch's ears.*pun intended of course*

    Out of curisosity, have these hit mainstream CE stores?

    Most of the sales are direct from Amazon or Klipsch.  There are some retail spots but I am not privy to the details. They keep the engineers in the dark dank cave where there is no light.  Course we don't like light anyways cause it ruins the picture on the big screen...

    Probably can be the Earl but don't you have to be awarded that title from the king?  Any English blokes know the process to become an Earl?  Are you born into it? 

     Matt,

    What does your blood line look like?  Any villans in the family tree.   I mean you came from Pennsylvania Dutch country!

    So, does the dog and pony show include how to properly insert the Custom and IMAGE models?  I thought the manual and/or the web doco was pretty good but some video demonstrations would be even better.

    Why do "villians in the family tree" and "the king" keep coming up around here?  Other than that "Duncan" thing, my family tree is pretty clean.

    Dear Matt potential  unqualified yet "Earl of Tragus",

    Do tell us more about the Duncan "thing".  Wait a minute isn't this a Post about Amazon.com?

    ** If "The Earl of Tragus" doesn't work out, perhaps a lesser title of "Baron von Tragus" would be acceptable.  Of course, this is because "The Auricle" would be a little too presumptuous.

    ** Duncan - type in "macbeth" and take the google train to wiki and read about my family history 

    ** Or better yet, to keep on topic with this thread - buy one of these:

    Excellent, the Klipsch Custom-3 "placeholder" is up at Amazon.com. Let's hope their 4-5 week estimated availability (which seems reasonable enough) stands true!

    I think the "Earl/Baron/whatever/Matt of/von/of/wannabe Tragus" needs to be included in the "dog and pony show" - dressed in character of course, for the whole world to see.

    Professor Thump:
    We showed them our HATS dummy that we still need a name for

    How about something simple & easy to remember....

    "Roy" comes to mind...

    Or "Pinhead"?  (not to draw any obvious associations)

    Embarrassed

     

    Professor Thump told me to take a Custom 3 and stick it in my ear. I did...and it sounded great!!!
