Koss new web page

What a good surprise!

 

I just have opened Koss website: all new graphics. Indeed more beautiful now. Is that a sign of new times for the company?

 

I don't know why, but I love this brand. Porta Pro influence? Definitely yes, even with all its shortcomings.

I noticed that too the other day. I especially liked how they took new pictures of some of their new headphones. I like these of my favorite headphone:

Wonder if they'll release something new in 2012? I hope so. They sure don't release a ton of headphones, but that's ok with me.

I think they released basically two brand new headphones last year. UR-55 and DJ100. UR-50 I believe is the UR-55 that's closed.

I wonder why Koss seems to dislike open headphones?

 

Still hoping they release an open headphone with a signature similar to the HD-598 or DJ100. I do think they need to focus a little more on comfort.

Wow, that site looks great.  Very easy to navigate and read, and the new headphone photos look awesome.

Also, I had no idea Koss made an electrostat.  Seems out of place with the rest of their lineup.

I looked.  I said wow.

 

Nice look and fresh feel.  But I do hope this doesn't mean too much in the way of company rebrand in the bad way that it sometimes means.

At this nice site we can see the evolution of the Koss website, since 1996 until today.

There are many dead links, but even so very entertaining.

Website looks nice, classy.  I hope this means they're going to put out some mid-fi headphones higher than the dj100..

They've made electrostatics for close to 50 years, I think.  They created the first electrostatic headphones, period.

Huh.  I had no idea.  You learn something new every day, I guess.
