For the longest time I couldn’t figure out why people would spend so much (over $20) on a pair of headphones. I remember telling my friends, “They’re just headphones. Who cares, as long as I can hear the music I’m good.”

I had much more important things to spend my money on (i.e. clothes, and those really cute shoes). I had no problem buying pair after pair of headphones, wondering why they kept falling a part on me.

Until today.

Today I will admit, wait for it…

I will admit that I was wrong, which makes this a very special day because I rarely admit my wrongness, even when I am.

I reluctantly slipped the new Klipsch S2 headphones into each ear, already thinking, “They’re just head phones.”

Then I pressed play and was amazed by the sound quality, I actually had to turn down the volume! My older headphones usually played at about ½ the sound. With these new S2 headphones the volume was less than 20% and I could still hear clearly.

The S2 ear headphones come with sleeves in 3 different sizes which should accommodate just about everyone. I’m using the small and can barely feel them in my ear. Which is a plus, I usually had to take breaks with my other headphones because my ears would start to hurt.

The Klipsch S2 ear headphones are sound isolating and are still affordable at a price point of $49.99.

• Precise, comfortable fit for long-term wear
• Superior noise-isolating design
• Delivers smooth sound with great bass
• Durable, built-in strain relief
• Works with iPod, iPhone and other MP3 devices

If the S2 headphones can tune out my wonderful (don’t worry hubs is in charge when I’m writing) then I can only imagine what some of the other models can tune out.

If you are looking for some high-quality headphones you will get a lot of sound for you money with the Klipsch S2 headphones.

* Of course I know “wrongness” is not a word.
