Wow, can we say love at first hear?  I know, being tiny earbud style headphones the Klipsch Custom-1 Headphones wouldn’t be most peoples choice for computer or gaming usage… I have to beg of those people to reconsider!

The Klipsch Custom-1’s have performed amazingly well for daily computer use and gaming.  And by performance I don’t mean just sound, yes the sound is amazing!  The comfort is just as amazing!  Thanks to several ear gels to choose from you can get the perfect fit that doesn’t begin to hurt, or become an annoyance after hours of use.  The eargels aren’t round either, since your ear canal is not round!  What an amazing concept!!  You mean a company actually made something that fits to our body rather thane expecting our body to become acustomed to it?!?!

I was glad that I started using the Klipsch Headphones on my computer at first since it has a tuner that I can change levels and adjust.  The Klipsch Headphone line seems to be very picky to start things off and for the first couple hundred hours of use aren’t completely balanced.  After that you can stop adjusting sound levels and just enjoy all the little details that you’ve been missing all along!

I used to have a pair of Turtle Beach 5.1 Surround Sound headphones, and wasn’t sure if I’d ever be able to get used to anything other than complete emulsion of sound… I have to say that I never was used to it wearing those.  Yeah, the 5.1 was awesome, but the sound quality of these Klipsch Custom-1’s is MUCH higher.  I can hear every tiny detail, and still able to tell when someone is sneaking up behind me in Counter-Strike:Source.  I will mention that for computer use I had to buy a six foot extension for the 3.5mm jack as the Custom-1’s only have a cord long enough to reach your pocket because they’re really for Ipod’s and Zune’s.  Maybe one day when I get a Zune I can use this for it… which was half of the appeal of getting these over a pair of Sennheiser’s, can’t say that I was dissapointed.
