I've been interested in buying some X5s, been searching the threads. X10 vs X5, etc. People keep mentioning getting them cheaper than the MSRP of 200. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Any help would be appreciated.

Prices tend to fluctuate, for some reason. I got some for about $150 from B&H a few months ago. Keep checking Google Products and Amazon and you'll get an idea of the fluctuations. $150 is the lowest I've seen them, other than the big sale Klipsch had a couple years ago.
look on the sale boards on this forum, they come up somewhat frequently, I just bought some x10's for .. well definitely under $200, so im sure if you keep your scopes up on the boards, you will find some x5's under $200 as well.
Klipsch is, unfortunately, discontinuing the X5s (see the Klipsch forum.)
They're not saying why; possibly they are too much competition for the more expensive X10s. I've always thought both models should be considered top of the line, with different SQs for different folks.
At any rate, there should be some sales. But you may not want to wait too long. I'd say $150 is a more than fair price for these excellent IEMs. Keep checking Amazon and Googling.
