KTX/PRO-Great Sound; Greater Price

Date of Review:  Dec 9, 2000
Review: Koss? KTX/PRO headphones (uses same drivers as Sporta Pro) are a well rounded headphone suitable for replacing the really, really bad ?phones that come with portable players. I have never seen a portable CD player, tape player MiniDisc player or Mp3...

Shocked by the sound of 35$ headphones

Date of Review:  Nov 30, 2004
Review: I went looking for a small headphone for my MP3 player. I tried on darn near everything from the earbuds Sennheiser
on down. I guess my ears are small because all of the earbud type hurt my ears! ( not playing just sitting in there or trying to...

No boom-n-sizzle here

Date of Review:  Feb 22, 2003
The Bottom Line: If "Boom-N-Sizzle" is your thing, you'll hate these headphones, they are not for the tin-eared.
Review: I've owned these headphones for almost two years now and they are, without a doubt, the finest lightweight headphones I have heard.

I walked into Radio Shack armed with my walkman and went to the headphone display and began pulling...

One word - AWESOME!

Date of Review:  Apr 2, 2007
Review: I've been a music aficionado (and casual musician) most of my life. Believe me, I'm anal retentive about my sound quality. These cans are a freak of science. I've listened to headphones 3 times the price, and still go back to the mighty Porta Pros...

GREAT GREAT GREAT

Date of Review:  Mar 19, 2006
Review: Awesome sound and nothing sticking in my ears to clear out my wax :). And for only 29 bucks you cant go wrong. I damaged the wire to the ear piece and KOSS sent me a new pair. They have a lifetime warranty.

Koss Porta-Pro

Date of Review:  Dec 23, 2007
The Bottom Line: Good portable headphones, durable, accurate-sounding. A "must" replacement for any bundled headphones.
Review: First of all, it's a bit of surprise that those were called "geeky" and "dorky", probably suggesting they look "cumbersome" or somesuch (the very notion of something being "geeky" or "dorky" is laughable by itself - quite a prejudice for...

Good sound, ugly looks

Date of Review:  Mar 3, 2001
The Bottom Line: At around $20US these have great sound for the price, but they have some serious design issues that might be a problem for some people.
Review: These headphones have been reviewed by audiophiles as being better sounding than many that cost twice as much.
They aren't as good of a deal here in Canada. They cost $60 Canadian while they're only about $20US. They're still the best sounding...

A Great Compromise

Date of Review:  Jun 12, 2002
The Bottom Line: These are great for people who want to wear them in a variety of outdoor situations. The sound quality is excellent in relation to their portability.
Review: I got these for my minidisc player. I wanted something light and not too huge, that would not take a lot of power (which can make headphones deliver low sound levels), and I don't like things that are low-quality construction. I knew I wasn't going...

You'll like these. Trust me.

Date of Review:  Sep 24, 2002
The Bottom Line: I love them. Great sound quality--I can't hammer that home enough. They sound excellent!
Review: I have an Audiovox Maestro and an Archos Jukebox that I use as portable MP3 players. I was seriously considering returning the Archos Jukebox until I bought these headphones. Why? I thought the thing sounded abyssmal. Then I plugged these headphones...

What a headphone, what a company.

Date of Review:  May 3, 2007
The Bottom Line: Buy em.
Review: As usual in my quest for the perfect product, I purchased every other headphone before I purchased the Koss headphones because I just thought that there is no way a $50 headphone will be as good as the $200 Shure ear buds or the Sennheiser (sp). Boy...
