They don't have those at Best Buy, and I prefer buying somewhere close so I can test them out and take them back if I don't like them. Being stuck without headphones for a day while I wait for online shipping sucks.
I e-mailed Klipsch support and they're asking me what bitrate the MP3s I'm listening to are encoded at, which isn't good because they sounded fine on my Bose QC2s (and they're between 160-224kbps anyway).
As for what Best Buy has in stock, they have the Shure SE115s, but I've owned Shures before and found them uncomfortable for long-term use (I want to like the Klipsch's because they're very comfortable in comparison), dunno if the SE115s have improved in this area. They have the JVC Marshmallows, dunno if those are any good, as well as a whole array of Sonys, such as:
Extra Bass
"Ear Bud Headphones" (Sony, is it that ****ing hard to attach some model name that clarifies things more than "MDR XXX" so I know what the **** these things are supposed to do?)
The ever more descriptive
More expensive "Ear Bud Headphones"
All of these are in stock at the store nearest my office.
