For those who've been looking for a pair of great of IEMs with android compatable inline controls, the S4a's are out. Happened to come across them at Futureshop today so it was a pleasant surprise, although I'm still iffy about the 120CAD I put towards them. Once they have about 100+ hours of burn in I'll decide if I'll keep 'em for a few reasons.
The box includes the usual multiple sized tips and the earbuds themselves, but they also come with a clip to use to attach the mic/control onto clothing and a nice sized carrying case.
According to Kilpsch themselves, they have incredible functionality with their customized app, which I'll be looking into it over the next few weeks.
Anyone else been interested in these?

I wasn't even aware of them until now...and now I NEED them. I really have to stop visiting the accessories forum
A simple review would be nice after you've used them a little

Sure.
Just from toying around with them thus far I've come across a couple things that irritate me personally to do with the controls, but I might be able to find workarounds for these little hassles.

I got them from Futureshop up here in Canada for 120CAD.
Quick first impression:
I expected that you could only customize the three functions (single, double, and triple click) and speed of clicking. That's certainly the case. Their volume control is non-customizable and very finicky, and the speed to control the button timing isn't all too great either. Otherwise it does what it says it does, just not every function at once of course.
I won't go into their sound as there are hundreds of reviews of the S4's sound online, and the only difference with these to the usual S4 is the addition of a button.
the app works for me too no problems
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
Old thread by now, but I'm thinking of picking these up for my S2.
I'm sure the sound and stuff is great from the sound of other online reviews, but what I'm worried about is the durability of the cord.
How has your cords been?
And if you could, give a little description of how you've been using them.
Thanks
Hi, I liked the headset a lot but unfortunately one of the muffs lost
So my question is if I can get a new pair of them. I'm willing to pay 25$
Thanks!
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
get them direct from samsung is probably the best option, many online sellers will give you the gs2 version which does not work properly.
if you just loss the muffs, all you need to do is buy a new set of muff, they are pretty cheap.

samsung made the headphones for the gnexus differently, this is also the same with the nexus s.

What in ear headphones would you buy for the hox under 50 $ ???
Please reffer to ebay prices as a refference..
I had some sennheisers cx300 before, which worked fine for almost 1 year, but then one headphone does not work anymore
thinking about some jays but not sure... like the tangle free cable though...
I've got the JVC HAFX101. Got mine off eBay for about US$25 posted. Highly underrated but sounds great to me!

I have had a pair of cx-300s for over 3 years, still going strong. They are not cheaply built (not cheaper than other earphones in the same price range anyway), are you sure you got a genuine pair (there are many fakes on eBay). ?

Well I had mine for about half a year and they're still going good, accidentally washed them a couple of times and they're still good, you might wanna buy them from a electronics store instead of eBay.

i think i will still stick to the cx 200s - the philips looks very nice but: still no tangle free calbe and i cannot find earbuds for them so easily as for sennheisers... they are at the same price as the cx 200s at the local reseller - 23 Euros...
I chose the jays one +, and I am not sorry about it.. great sound for the price and with hands-free also....

You only need the adapter for headsets right, not headphones

Yes, but if your headphones have a mic built in, even if you never use it, you need the adapter for the headphone portion to work. You can tell these by the plug, which has 3 rings instead of two.

I have no idea where u can find the pinout for something like that but the fact that you can make one yourself is pretty awesome lol.
The R800i doesn't have the adapter for some reason.
If anyone loses the adapter rather than replacing it just buy psp headphones. I have my old psp headphones and when I tried them they worked fine

There is a beats mod in the apps section
Dude.. do you not review products before you buy them?? Beats headphones are a pure marketing ploy. While thy have really good build quality, the sound they output is worth MUCH less than they retail for. We have Beats headphones at work and a few friends have some beats buds. I have a $100 pair of Sonys I bought 3 years ago that blow any of the Beats headphones out of the water.
Do your research. Unless you don't care about sound quality, you have much better alternatives out there.

The build quality alone like you said might be worth the $150. I've spent $100 this year on ear buds, my 14. Year old is rough on em. She'll probably say the same thing "sound is amazing" mean while she has no clue about sound lol... thanks for your input.

To be honest you should really look into Klipsch brand buds they are honestly the best bang for the buck headphones i have ever purchased and they come with a 2 year warranty! Who does that?! I researched and tested many and they have the hands down best sound quality for under 100$ you can hear distintive tones and pitches simultaneously and hear high and lows while having some noise canceling ability.
have stuck to this brand for 3 years cauase they are awesome.
