No problem. Just some frustration on my part over an ordering situation that didn't seem logical. But it's all good now.

Thanks. I am going to check with my friend to see if she still wants to spend. Appreciate the heads-up. I'd love to get a pair, but as you can see, I'm overloaded with phones at the moment, and I like them all.

Also, someone brought up the idea of wearing glasses and over the ear phones. I noticed in a thread you also don't like wearing phones over your ears. I don't either. I sold my UM1s within 30 minutes of trying them out, and they are very comfy in general. I just like the wire in front of me, not behind me. Anyway, is the ear loop big enough to cause pressure/interfere with wearing glasses. Just curious. Or is it fairly innocuous?

And finally (at least so far), there's Trager the IEM-aholic whose full story is best told by his signature:
Guilty as charged... I do test engineering, and I spend a lot of time programming in very noisy environments like production floors and environmental/EM test labs. IEMs really have saved my hearing and I love being able to really enjoy my music while I'm coding away.

Of course, the irony is that I'm not a basshead at all, and the Atrios are the only phone that I've really liked that could be described as bassy. In general, though, I've always associated the Klipsch sound signature with high quality mids and highs, and I think that (in conjunction with the Image reviews) is really what piqued my curiosity about the C3s.

Well...I just ordered a pair.. went through the checkout process and got an order conf email. Does this mean I was one of the lucky ones..or I may still find out they are out of stock at the moment? Just wondering..

The first 40 sold out yesterday already. However, they got another 30 sets in today, so you should be good.

I did the same last night when the original batch was gone, and I was unable to complete the order. Today when the new lot came in, I ordered again and all went thru OK. I guess we can both assume that we scored a set!

I hope I am as impressed with the Custom 3 as I am with my Images! Sound is great, comfort is unsurpassed by any IEMs I have previously owned.

How are you getting them so fast? Overnight shipping?

How does the sound of the IMAGE compare to your other IEMs?

It's exciting to see that these are shipping already in at least modest quantities.

OK guys, hurry up with those reviews!

Interesting, my package was picked up by FedEx in Anaheim, CA which is so very close to where I live. I'm not sure how that relates to Indiana-based Klipsch, but I don't really care right now.

Expected delivery date: tomorrow! Nice!

You guys have emails from Klipsch to shipping? I have yet to see one. I placed my order the day of and only have the receipt from the web of anything.

Just checking.

Go to your Klipsch Order Confirmation e-mail and click on the link that is your "Invoice #:". It should take you to a page and you can find your tracking number on that page (another link).

I didn't receive a shipping confirmation e-mail, and I was getting curious why so I manually checked it and there it was, shipped and coming tomorrow.

Nope, no tracking number on the invoice link or a link off that page.
