Last night, the Sundown Marathon Charity Ambassadors were each presented with two sets of earphones from Klipsch when we visited their exclusive distributor, Tat Chuan Acoustic, at Adelphi Singapore.
We were handed a set of the A5i sports and a set of the R6i earphones.
Here is a rundown on a few of their features.
A5i earphones
Lightweight Oval Ear Tips
The A5i sports earphones are very lightweight and has a flex wire design that keeps the oval ear tips secured. These ear tips fit the natural shape and contours of the ear canal and makes for more comfortable wearing. At the same time, they eliminate surrounding background sounds that may interfere with your listening.
Built-in clothing clip
The special built-in clothing clip keeps the earphones in place during vigorous sports activities.
Three-Button Set of Controls
There is also a three-button set of controls on the earphones. These have an up and down volume button as well as a remote system for ease in answering phone calls. You can also take photos using the volume control buttons on the earphones as a bonus feature, if you own an iPhone, iPod Touch or an iPad. So in this way, it will be much easier to take selfies with your phone!
Kelvar Armoured Cables
The Kelvar armoured cables are very durable and tangle-resistant, even when the earphones are roughly dumped into a pocket or tossed into a corner after an exercise session.
They come in a very vibrant lime-green colour.
These earphones cost SGD255 in stores.
R6i earphones
Different Sizes of Silicon Tips
The Klipsch R6i earphones come together with three different sizes of silicone tips, to accommodate different ear sizes. So this means that nobody is left out.
Soft Oval Silicon Tips
At the same time, the soft oval silicon tips are specially designed so that they can reduce ear fatigue and isolate any surrounding ambient sound and bass response. So you should be able to listen to your music or watch videos without any outside interferences.
Three-Button Controls
Like the A5i earphones, these ones also come with a three-button control for users to change the volume and take phone calls with ease.
Durable and Lightweight
The R6i earphones are durable and lightweight, because of the aluminum and elastomer materials used.
They come in two colours – black and white. I opted for the black one.
These earphones cost SGD169 in stores.
Demonstration of Klipsch’s speakers
Besides being presented with the free earphones, the Sundown Marathon Charity Ambassadors were also given a demonstration of Klipsch’s speakers while we were in the store.
I must say that we were completely blown away by the quality of their sound. So it probably comes as no surprise that 50 per cent of movie cinemas in the USA utilize their sound systems.
Thank you, Klipsch, for the earphones.
