Features
Overview: The Klipsch Image
S4i in-ear headset offers premium sound, a comfortable fit, and an in-line
3-button microphone with music/phone control (select Apple products). The
Image S4i features an in-line advanced 3-button mic and remote system for full
music and/or voice control on select Apple products. The 360°
mic yields high intelligible phone calls. Its patented oval ear-tips offer
unbeatable comfort, superior noise isolation, and amazing bass response. The
in-ear headset uses durable cables with built-in strain relief.
Premium Sound: The Image S4i in-ear
headphones + mic deliver realistic sound through the use of a single, moving coil
micro-driver (or mini-speaker) per channel. These drivers cover a wide frequency
range (10Hz-19kHz) with dynamic detail.
3-Button Mic and Remote System: Thanks to its advanced
3-button mic and remote system, which Klipsch designed in conjunction with
Apple, the Image S4i is the first third-party headset to offer full control of
your iPhone or iPod touch. The built-in 3-button remote control lets you answer
and end calls, turn the volume up and down, and control music playback
(Play/Pause, Fast Forward/Rewind, Previous/Skip).
Note: Its also compatible with VOIP, Skype, iChat, and audio
recording applications.
360° Mic Design: Unlike other headsets, the S4i positions its mic and
remote at the cable yoke to create a more natural feel when answering calls and
controlling music. The mic is a highly intelligible 360° design with echo
cancellation, so you will be heard crystal clear and will not have to worry
about the external noise around you.

Note: Apple iPod/iPhone software updates may change
functionality results. If you download a newer software version, you may
need to reset your iPod/iPhone to regain functionality. If this doesn't
work, you may need to revert to the older software version or wait until a
newer software update is available.
Comfortable Fit: The Image S4i features angled housings for
proper in-ear alignment. The Klipsch Image
S4i's exclusive soft and flexible oval ear tips naturally fit the contours of
your ear canals, providing comfortable long-term wear as well as producing a
perfect acoustic seal. A good seal minimizes outside noise, also known as noise
isolation (up to -16), and allows you to enjoy your music at lower, safer
volumes. The Image S4i comes with three different sizes of washable
single-flange ear tips (S/M/L) and one pair of dual-flange ear-tips.
51" Headphone Cable: The Image S4i
in-ear headphones + mic features a durable 51" headphone cable with built-in strain
relief. The headphone cable has an adjustable cable-slider to prevent
tangling.
Gold-Plated Connector: The Klipsch
in-ear headphones + mic features a gold-plated, straight, male 3.5mm connector, so
it works with any portable device that features a standard 3.5mm headphone
output.
Shirt-Clip: The S4i features a shirt-clip to keep the
in-line mic close to your chest when speaking.
Carrying Pouch: The Image S4i comes
with a cloth "snap-tite" carrying pouch to store the headphones when not in use.
