What you get is a personalized fit with a precision-tuned acoustic experience without having a couple of large mushrooms sticking out from your ears, courtesy of its patent-pending Contour Ear Gels that were anatomically designed to accurately fit inside the human ear canal.&quot;</em><br /><br /><img border="1" src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/600/dht/auto/1211476874.usr1.jpg" alt="" /><br /><br />Personally, I think spending anything above $200 on headphones is bordering on lunacy, but if you really dig your tunes and want to hear them at their best, these $430 headphones from Klipsch might do the trick. I'm a bit dubious myself - although I'm a big fan of Klipsch and the sound quality of their speakers, bass response is usually a matter of physics. These itty-bitty headphones don't look like they'd be capable of generating much in the way of bass. I guess we'll wait and see...
