The Klipsch Reference X12i launched in Singapore in November 2015 at S$599, succeeding the X11i and X10i before it. These in-ear earphones weigh just 15g, with a milled aluminium chassis under 6mm in diameter for a deep-fit seal.
The Klipsch Reference X6i was announced in the US in November 2015 and reached Singapore in March 2016. It's the third Reference earphone, retailing for S$329 in white or black, available at Courts, Challenger, and Tat Chuan Acoustic.
The Klipsch R6 In-Ear Bluetooth Earphones are Klipsch's first-ever Bluetooth earphones, launched in Singapore on 15th January 2016 at S$299. At launch only matte black was available, with a one-year warranty from official distributor Tat Chuan Acoustic.
The Klipsch Reference R6i On-Ear Headphones launched in Singapore on 20th September 2015 for S$199, the newest addition to the Reference lineup. They follow the R6/R6i In-Ear Headphones I got last year, sharing the same advanced acoustic engineering.
The newly launched Klipsch Reference R6 and R6i replace the much-loved Klipsch Image S4 II and S4i II respectively, at the same prices. The Reference R6 retails for S$129 and the R6i for S$169, both with a one-year warranty.
I bought the Klipsch Image S4i II for Li Xiang, who'd lost hers and loved the original S4i. It was Amazon's deal of the day during Black Friday week at US$39.99, against more than triple that in Singapore at S$169.
I love Klipsch, especially their patented oval ear tips, which fit me perfectly. I bought the Klipsch Image X10 during Amazon's Cyber Monday Gold Box deals for US$84.99, upgrading from the Image S4i I'd used for over two years.
My brother got me the Ultimate Ears SuperFi 5vi from Amazon, shipped via Borderlinx since Amazon won't send it directly here. It cost US$64.99 after discount, far below the US$169.99 list and the S$299 local price. He bought three.
Hunting for a replacement for my Creative EP-630i headset, I weighed the Ultimate Ears SuperFi 5vi, Bose In-Ear and Klipsch Image S4i. I settled on the S4i, recommended by colleagues and within budget, and I love its three-button remote.
