Are you serious? It would cost you almost the same to G1A.

THANK YOU so much for posting this thread. I was thinking about getting some Yuin Buds for home use but after reading this, I'll save a couple of bucks and get something so much better: Yuin G1A.

And here's the headband that you can get for it for more versatility. From what I've read, the G1s clip perfectly onto it.

I thought KSC35 was already discontinued. But today I could find them in Koss website. You guys might already be knowing it.. but still wanted to share this with you.

Wow. I should add stock KSC-35 into comparison.

As with your other reviews, excellent job. Considering the price of each (stock) and the sound quality, which one of these would you say offers the best value?

Koss brought these back 1-2 years ago, I think based on the reputation they had attained in the headphone community and on people asking for them to be brought back.

G2A has the best value/price ratio to me.

do you think the SQ of the G2A would benifit from a re-wire?

kostalex, just a quick Q: is G1 a previous model to G1A, or are they the same? I just bought G1, thinking it was G1A, then saw Tony's review last year of G1, but no A suffix.

Thanks for your help

Edit\ They haven't arrived yet, so I can't check against your pics - but that shows inscription as G1.

Excellent review as always. I love the way you format them. It's a shame I can't use clip-ons without feeling insanely uncomfortable (glasses).

G1 is a predecessor, it sounds brighter, colder and leaner. Both have the same "G1" prints on the back plate, so it is better to differ them by the grill. Take off the foam:
  • If you see the driver diaphragm through the grill, then it is G1.
  • If grill is covered by black fabric, then it is G1A.
