Koss Porta Pro Consumer Headphones

High Quality Sound Sets Performance Standard for Portable Listening.The Porta Pro features dynamic elements that deliver exceptionally rich, deep bass and a remarkably wide frequency response from 15-25,000 Hz to capture every nuance in your favorite movie or musical performance. Constructed from mylar, the elements are extremely rigid, minimizing mechanical distortion and ensuring exceedingly accurate sound reproduction. Neodymium iron boron rare earth magnet structures enable the Porta Pro to deliver greater volume so you can hear every note, even when competing against the sounds of a commuter train with a low-voltage MP3 or disc player. Oxygen free copper voice coils improve signal transmission and conduction for cleaner, clearer sound.
I can't say enough good things about these PortaPros! They're simply amazing. These are the first headphones (or speakers) I've had that sound absolutely awesome without adjusting the equalizer or pumping up the bass. They sound good on everything from R&B to Country and everything in-between. I've been especially impressed that they pull the bass and highs out of a song without getting that shrill, tinny treble that plagues so many headphones. If there ever was a question about the quality of Koss stereophones in my mind, these PortaPros have put it to rest and made me into a lifetime customer! If you're like me you'll wish you had discovered these legendary headphones years ago..

Best set of headphones I have owned. I have never owned a set of high end cans so cannot compare with top price items. Bought these to replace the garbage ear plug type sets used with portable devices such as the pocket FM radio device I use. Immediate extra clarity and comfort. They stay well in position. Because of the improvement in sound quality I am now considering paying for a serious set of headphones for use at home as it seems that you gets what you pays for! But for portable use these have exceeded my expectations.

Despite the retro looks these headphones offer great sound quality for the money and even for headphone that cost twice or three times the amount. A design that would look fabulous in the 1980s lives on as retro chic in the 21st century. Excellent pair of headphones complete with carry case....and...they are confortable too!

Love the Koss portable headphones - third purchase. Unfortunately I thought the last pair was the same as the other two pairs which were the sport model with a moveable headband but they were a standard pair so cannot use them as much as I would want to !
