k24p,px100,ksc75,porta/sportapro,igrado.

I want to buy one of these but i dont know which has the best sound and performance.i want the most fun sounding of the bunch.which in your opinion is?

[zumaro]

Haven't heard the iGrados, so can't comment on them. Out of the rest k24p isn't very good, and the other 3 each have their own fans. I prefer the px100s because they combine a fairly refined sound with good bass and are portable and discrete as well.

Ive only heard the px100 and k24p.i disagree that k24p isnt very good.its actually the opposite and it does hold its own next to the px100 its just a slightly different sound signature.i havent heard the pp or igrado though.

[lutwey]

from what i heard (s)portapro, ksc75 have the same drivers.
i have the ksc75 and they are great..........just pull the trigger u wont regret it.
plus they are dirth cheap so u can get at least a couple of pair.

don't take my words..........do a search and u will findout that people who own expensive gears still use the legendary ksc75

Are there any owners of the k24p here who also feel they are as good as the px100?

I have the PX100 and love it alot. It's one of the few truly good portable headphones out there.

I heard very good things about the Koss PortaPro & the KSC-75.

Just check the reviews & forums on the internet and you will see good things said about the PX100, Portapro & KSC-75.

For the $50 & under mark...when it comes to good headphones these 3 are basically the kings.

I don't know much about the K24P. So I don't want to comment on that one.

Also forget about the igrado, if you're going to use a Grado headphone as portable...get the Grado SR-60 instead...it's better & it's easily driven by a portable (also remember it's not really the best portable...it's a mid sized headphone, a little bulky).

Hi I have PX100, KSC35, KSC75 and PortaPro
What I can tell the difference among them:

PX100
+ Very Fun sound.
+ Bass is strong
+ Very comfortable to wear even for hours
+ Can be fold (compact) and perfect for travelling
- Senheiser Veil causes dark sound
- Expensive

KSC75
+ Good sound (similar to the legend KSC35)
+ Very portable
+ Cheap. Extremely good value.
- Treble too bright (due titanium coating)
- Bass is there but due to loose fit the bass can be non-existant in busy place
- Fragile, many has reported the hinge broke (including me)

PortaPro
+/- Loud bass. Plenty of it. (Good if you are bass head, Bad if you are not)
+ Different fit setting (Firm/Med/Loose)
- Many detail lost because of loud bass
- Colapsible into Ball. Difficult to carry around
- Dorky design

I have owned the KSC75, KSC35, and PX100. I would be happy with any of these, but my personal preference (and the one phone I kept) is the PX100. To my ears it's just a slightly better overall sound, better comfort, and is just fun to listen to.

Again, though, for the money, hard to scoff at any of these 3.

I own the PX100, and they are ok. They have good bass and mids, but their highs aren't too good. They are good for sources like the iPod and such that don't have great bass. SportaPros aren't that amazing either. Porta Pros are better than SportaPro and PX100 but have a lot of bass if you like that kind of thing. K24P's are the best of all in my opinion, although a bit mids-heavy.
