X6i - single BA --> http://www.klipsch.com/reference-x6i-in-ear-headphones
XR8i - hybrid. 1 dynamic 1BA --> http://www.klipsch.com/reference-XR8i-in-ear-headphones
X12i- SingleBA --> http://www.klipsch.com/reference-x12i-in-ear-headphones
X20i - Dual BA with stainless steel housing and removable cable --> http://www.klipsch.com/reference-x20i-in-ear-headphones
 
They look interesting. X20 comes in stunning wodden box. 
Not clear why they only release "i"-Versions which basically ties them to obscure niche-products
and ignoring 80% of the market potential.
 
Saw price for the X20i in Japan to be around 72,800 Yen meaning Klipsch still maintaining their
slightly questionable price politics on their higher end products.
 
Assume they might be available for 50% off their original price soon, same as old X7 and X11.
 
X20i claims frequency response 5Hz to 40kHz, so also dogs and bats will enjoy them!

Could try the hybrid if it gets some good reviews and it drops to $99 or less. That one has a lot to prove since there are good hybrids under $50 now.

oh, somehow they did not come up when I searched. In that case mine can be closed.
