 Product Description: Earclip Design / Rich, well-defined wide-range sound / For all portable players including MP3 / Titanium Sport Finish Amazon.com Product Description: Enjoy rich, accurate sound through your portable CD or MP3 player using the Koss KSC75 on-the-go headphones. Designed for people who want a lightweight listening solution without sacrificing audio quality, the phones employ a pair of sport clips to fit neatly around each ear, thus eliminating the constraints of conventional headbands. As a result, listeners can wear the phones--which weigh a mere 1.5 ounces--without disturbing their carefully coifed hairdos. When not in use, the headphones store compactly in a backpack or purse without taking up unnecessary space. Meanwhile, the phones produce terrific sound through their titanium-coated high-polymer drivers, which are built for maximum precision, as are the bass-boosting neodymium iron boron magnets. Their combined efforts generate a noteworthy 15 Hz to 25 kHz frequency response. Additional features include oxygen-free copper voice coils within the cord that protect the signal clarity; a straight, dual-entry 4-foot cable; and a 3.5 mm plug.

There is treble and bass clarity, and it doesn't sound muddy when you turn the volume all the way up. Sound-wise, these are probably the best pair of portable headphones I have owned. However, since these headphones are so uncomfortable, it subtracted from the great sound. At first, when I took these out of the box and tried them on, they wouldn't fit and stay on. Also, the cushions were very itchy. After adjusting them for an hour, they fit a little better. I gave these headphones a chance and wore them for a week, hoping that I would get used to them. A week later though, they still didn't fit correctly and were itchy. When I say they don't fit, I mean when I shake my head (even lightly), they fall off. Despite its great sound, I ended up giving them to a friend to pay off a debt. Rating:  Date: 2008-06-30 Great bang for the buck For a pair of under $20 headphones, these sound great.
I have been through several pairs of headphones, from giveaway-grade to the $100 level. I would have been happy for these up to a $50 price point, so for under $20, they are a steal.

Koss has ALWAYS been TOP OF THE LINE -- and they continue to offer great value and quality. It's nice to have listened to EXCELLENT Koss products for 38 years ...
AT the other end of the spectrum, Shu*e has gone NUTS on their pricing, so Koss just shines all the brighter now.
Rating:  Date: 2008-06-18 don't look elsewhere, really! There are tons of reviews of on Amazon and other audio product forums on the web which rate these phones as being the best bang for the buck. I have found them to be quite accurate, so I won't elaborate too much. In my experience, the sound clarity is detailed and excellent, especially in the mid to high range, and one can use the sound equalizers on their music players to improve the bass response somewhat. This isn't for bassheads, but for the rest of us, it is more than adequate with a little fiddling around.
My major concern before I bought these was how comfortable they would feelI have to say that this is not an issue at all because they slipped on very easily and once they are on, I barely notice them as they are really light and the hook around the ears is really comfortable. I wanted something that works well while running or exercising and I don't find earbuds comfortable, so this is perfect. Also, I wear glasses and don't have small ears. Still, putting these on and keeping these on are no problem at all.
All in all, you will get great sound and wearing comfort at a really great price. Don't look elsewhere, really! Rating:  Date: 2008-06-11 Awesome headphones These headphones take a little getting used to, but they are awesome. Full clear sound, nice bass, the kind that breathes, not the muffled bass of an ear bud (but just as big, or bigger). Like all headphones, they're not indestructable. I basically get a new pair of these every 6-8 months or so, after a frayed wire, or, more recently, a lost ear clip (they come off the headphones). Still, that's a small price to pay for great sound at a reasonable price. I'm also hard on 'em - I throw in my bag, sweat on them several times a week (I wear them while running), etc. Sound is my number one factor, and in that department these really are kick arse. |
