Klipsch X11i In-Ear Headphones Deliver Impeccable Sound & Hours of Comfort

Jul 26, 2014  |   Contributor: Mila Pantovich

Finding the perfect pair of earbuds is a serious pain—either they are too cheap, don't fit right, and quick to fall apart, or they seem immensely overpriced for the sound quality they reflect.
