As some of you have seen in this thread, my first real headphones had a cable defect, so I broke them and put them on YouTube as a warning towards everyone who wants to buy Skullcandy products. After that, I went to a big electronics store and tried the various cans that were there (some...

Koss's marque headphones PortaPro SportaPro KSC75 KSC35 (thanks Goratrix)   Which would you pick and why? This is picking out of the current models that are sold today.   I would pick KSC75 because its more durable than the new PortaPro and doesn't have that reverb issue the...

So what do you think of the looks on these 25 year old phones? as for me, I'm in love with its retro look

i ordered some port pros havent received them yet but was wondering if i could put px200 ear pads on them to make them closed back would this affect the sound quality at all   heres the pads  

Hi all, It's been a while since I posted here! I'm looking for a pair of 'phones that I can run with, and it seems to be more difficult than I'd imagined. In-Ear headphones, like the westones I have, are useless because you hear a thump everytime your foot hits the pavement. Earbuds are...

  i'd like to mention that bestbuy has a pair that is similar to the 25th anniversary but the same price as normal ones. they are all black. the only difference between the bestbuy pair and the 25th anniversary is the packaging/coin which i didn't care about. the cord is also different than...

i was messing around in class today and finally realized that my portapros have a hook and loop closure. i've had these things for a while too. blew my mind. my question is, what the hell is that screw for at the bottom of the left earpiece. the right doesnt have one. whassup with that?

My experience is very limited, so far I've only owned 3 headphones in the last couple of years all of which were under 50....namely the Sennheiser HD 215, Sennheiser HD 212 Pro (most uncomfortable) and my current Koss Porta Pro (excellent sq).   So as you may have already guessed - I...

I saw them at my local store. So if you rather shop local and have to get them now then is not a bad deal than waiting for shipping.   http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Koss+-+Portapro+Stereo+Headphones+-+Black/9492391.p?id=1218113927982&skuId=9492391&st=koss&cp=1&lp=2

I had a pair of Koss portaPro's for about 2 years and 10 days ago the plug went bad on them. So I wrote a note about what was wrong with them and a check for 6.00 for return shipping and to ship them to Koss cost me 4.00. This is just the headphones with nothing else like the wrapper. Well...

  Anyone has this 2 headphones to compare them?   They have almost the same price.     And a upgrade to Grado SR60i or SR80i wich costs 2 times will be worth?   ThanksAnyone has this 2 headphones to compare them?   They have almost the same price.     And a upgrade to...

Hello, its been a while I've been involved in Head-Fi.   I have had my PX100 for a while now as my portable can and I was wondering if there was a perhaps better replacement?   My treasured PX100 snapped in half when my sister accidentally stepped on it.   I would like the opinion of...

I found a couple of options after searching on the forum -  Durabrand Radio Partsexpress Cheapo headphone   I couldn't find the Durabrand at the local walmart so that leaves only one option. Have any others been discovered since then ?

Hi, just wondering do these have to be "Burned in"? Thanks in advance  Mark

I just bought my sis a pair of portapros and I like them a lot especially the bass. now I'm looking for a pair that have bass like them but a better sound, for a around $100 bucks. before I listened to my sis's portapros I was thinking of the senn HD 280s, HD555, grado SR 80i but I hear that...

I have 'em ! ! ! Just got it at Kingsound, Mong Kok, Hong Kong for 320HKD at 12/28/08. My Review from the outside in. LOOKS Well, they look younger in actual rather than the net. The funky blue is not seen that much. My cousins say they look cheap because of the metal headband...

I already have a philips SHE9550 and I plan to replace it with the Koss portapro but since the price range is a tad bit too similar and that SHE9550 also seems to be a bang for ur buck, I wonder...is it really worth it? anybody tried doing listening tests on both?   VS.

Having used PortaPros for a very long time, I am considering upgrading to IEMs for their superior portability. Is their an audible difference between the PortaPros and the Re0s?

I was about to buy a pair off the legendary Koss Portapro's. The only reason I wasn't was because of PX 100's. I then looked into it and was just about to buy the Portapro's as they they got more praise. As I was buying them I noticed the new PX 100-II's from sennheiser and was wondering if...

Hi there!   While googling for some headphone-related things I came across some discussions about some fake PortaPro's (at least they claim so).   I've allways been happy with my PP's sq but I decided to check what they said anyway, just for curiosity..   So, I picked up my...

 I have a coupel of koss porta pro headbands and i wonder is it a good idea to attach ksc75's (still on there way) to them ?

Thx Headfiers, been lurking here for a few weeks to see how best to spend $50 on some decent IEMs. Maximo's came in yesterday and they sound really good after an overnight burn in. I picked those over the nuforce because they ranked a little higher in some of the reviews and someone...

My favourite headphones in terms of sound are the Koss PortaPros, I like the strong bass and crisp highs.   I'd like to buy a pair of full-size (circumaural), that sound the same, or similar, preferably open rather than closed.   Can anyone recommend some? My budget is around...

Hi, I'm new at this place, so it should say that as I am german my english may be a bit wrong (please go on and make corrections!) and my understanding of some stuff is reduced by this circumstance.   I own the Koss Porta Pro but the bass is a bit too dominant and washed-out to me, as the...

Hey Guys,   I'm looking for new Over Ear Headphones for 50-60$ and they should not be to big, someting like the Urbanears Plattan (Don't know if they are good or not).   greetings   Autrach
