A Legend in Sound, A Tradition of Progress
At the heart of every Klipsch product is over 60 years of audio expertise beating strong. Our commitment to no-compromise performance has made us the preferred choice of top cinema operators, a leader in stereo and home theater sound and now a premium name in headphones.

Great Comfort and Fit 
Featuring a black soft-feel paint finish with silver accents on its earbuds, Custom 2 earphones utilize dark gray patent-pending Contour Ear Gels that are anatomically designed to accurately fit inside the human ear canal. These soft, oval silicon tips reduce ear fatigue as well as provide an amazing seal for excellent noise isolation and bass response.

Because ear canal measurements vary, Custom 2 comes with five different washable ear gel sizes: small, medium, and large single flange designs as well as small and large double flange designs.  Such variety allows these earphones to fit more of the population than the competition.

For perfect exterior comfort, flexible ear wires bend over and around the ears so they can be customized to each user. And not only do these adaptable wires provide optimal comfort, they also let users experience full or partial noise isolation—a great safety feature for on-the-go users. Just pull the ear gels out of the ear canals and adjust the wires to firmly position the earphone nozzles over the canals.

Great Sound
Dynamic earphones are a must for true-to-life audio experiences and Custom 2 makes it a reality. Coupling over 60 years of audio expertise with exclusive KG534 dual-balanced armatures, Custom 2 headphones deliver clear highs and thundering lows. 

Built to Last
Klipsch has gone to great lengths to ensure the long-lasting durability of Custom 2 earphones, up to and including its 50-inch-long cables. Put through extensive “real world” testing, these headphones feature appropriate strain relief at every cable connection point to help prevent wire damage. Plus, underneath the cable’s black cloth weaving, a special PVC Wireguard jacket prevents the wires from becoming exposed and frayed.

Added Frills
Great iPod headphones, Custom 2 is also compatible with the iPhone and virtually any device with a headphone jack. These headphones come with a high-quality vinyl carrying case that will also fit an 80G iPod, an airplane adaptor, five sets of different-sized ear gels, and an ear tip cleaning tool. 

Custom FAQs

How do I get the flexible ear wires to mold precisely around my ears?
The flexible ear wires come pre-formed to fit most ears. However, to get a true custom feel, you will need to tweak the bend. Start by gently forming it to the back of your ear. You may need to adjust the angle of the earbud in your ear to help achieve a good seal or eliminate pressure points. Plan on spending up to five minutes checking the ear tip fit and wire adjustment. In many instances, you will need to bend the wire so that the nozzle is pointing forward and upward. Once you get it right, you'll find it was time well spent. 

Why am I not getting enough bass response?
It’s probably because you don’t have the right ear seal. Be sure to try out the various ear tip sizes as you may find that you need the double flange design to achieve the best possible seal. You may also want to try pulling the ear tip back slightly as it may have collapsed.

How do I know if I have a good ear seal?
When no music is playing, your voice should sound louder and ambient noise should sound quieter, very similar to wearing a pair of ear plugs. Creating a tighter seal is simple. Insert the ear gel into the ear canal and then gently pull it back. This adjustment eliminates virtually all external noise so you can play your music at a lower volume, for a longer period of time, without experiencing ear fatigue.

At the heart of every Klipsch product is over 60 years of audio expertise beating strong. Our commitment to no-compromise performance has made us the preferred choice of top cinema operators, a leader in stereo and home theater sound and now a premium name in headphones.

As the flagship design in the Image family, these award-winning headphones fuse lifestyle, technology and fashion to deliver precise, natural sound as well as stake their claim as the smallest, most comfortable earphones on the market.

Complete Comfort and Fit
Image X10 features proprietary Contour Ear Gels that naturally fit the shape of your ear canals, reducing ear fatigue and producing a perfect acoustic seal. A good seal minimizes outside noise, also known as noise isolation, and allows you to enjoy your music at lower, safer volumes. Each flexible, oval-shaped ear gel is also light and narrow, making it almost impossible to feel inside the ear. 

Image X10 comes with five different sizes of washable ear gels: small, medium, and large single flange designs, as well as small and large double flange designs. This way, virtually everyone can find a precise fit. 

Premium Sound
Inside these compact gems, you’ll find over 60 years of audio expertise ready to let you hear what you’ve been missing. Image X10 uses an exclusive balanced full-range armature micro-driver with a tuned bass-reflex system to deliver superior acoustic experiences with all the dynamics and accuracy you'd expect from Klipsch.  

Beauty in the Details 
A must-have for fashion-forward listeners, Image X10 earphones feature aluminum bodies finished in beautiful anodized copper and streamlined black “tails.” Aside from aesthetic appeal, these flexible “tails” reduce cable stress and serve as an acoustic damper to minimize cable noise.

Built to Last
We’ve gone to great lengths to ensure the long-lasting durability of Image X10, including its 50-inch-long cables. Put through extensive “real world” testing, these headphones feature appropriate strain relief at every cable connection point to help prevent wire damage.

Added Frills
The Image X10 is compatible with the iPod, iPhone and virtually any device with a headphone jack. These earphones come with a carrying case and compact pouch, a ¼-inch adaptor, an airplane adaptor, five sets of different-sized ear gels and an ear gel cleaning tool.

Image X10 FAQs

Why are Image headphones unique and worth the price?
Made up of the X10 and X5, the Image series represents the world’s smallest, lightest full-range earphone family. Meant to be heard and not seen, these tiny headphones are big on performance, style and comfort. Image is loaded with our most advanced comfort features, plus its remarkably lightweight design places minimal pressure on the ears. 

What is the difference between the Image X10 and the Image X5?
The X5 is a slightly larger—by only 2mm in diameter—than the flagship X10, so it’s easier and somewhat less expensive to manufacture, so we can pass the savings on to the end user. However, the X5 is still considered a very small, lightweight design and will continue the Image legacy of being the least fatiguing in-ear headphones around.

With respect to technology and sound performance, the X5 employs a balanced full-range driver with a tuned bass-reflex system, while the X10 uses an exclusive full-range micro-driver with a tuned bass-reflex system. If you like a lot of bass, we recommend purchasing the X10; however, if you like want a superior top end with more forward voicing than the X5 is the right choice for you.

According to the Klipsch engineering team, the X5 continues Klipsch’s sound signature by performing accurately in the frequency and time domain, minimizing any phase distortion with its linear acceleration. As a result, you’ll hear things in your favorite recordings you never noticed before.
