  Are you talking about these? http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0002DEJMU/ref=ox_sc_sfl_title_2?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A3RR83O5CUB4PO
 
I was just about to order some..

 
That headband looks identical to my parts express headband, so I would assume it would work. The only question is whether you can pop off those drivers and that the fitting is the same. I think there is a very good chance that it would work. Maybe someone else has purchased those exact same ones though...

I bought the ones pictured and the headband detaches and works perfectly with Koss KSC. There are a couple of very similar looking products out there on ebay and amazon marketplace which are not quite identical so no guarantee that the band will detach. Check the images very carefully and if the headband attachment point isn't absolutely identical to the one in that amazon pic then it's not what you want. If you buy something which isn't exactly as pictured then you are entitled to a refund. In my experience ebay UK are actually really good in enforcing this. If you buy something which is exactly as pictured and described but isn't what you assumed it would be then that is probably money gone.

Just in case the amazon product disappears or changes, here's a pic of the headphone with useful band:




and a very similar one which is probably not useful:



You can see the in the second one that the outward facing side of the metal band is enclosed in the slider instead of being exposed, that the short angled plastic section at the bottom of the band is different and that the circular attachment point on the earpad is a bit larger.

So you are saying that this should work as long as the product matches the pic?

1 of these reviews claims the headband is detachable. 
2 other claim they received a product different from the picture without detachable headband.
 
I guess different products are being sold by different suppliers on the same amazon page..
 
Do you know if there is a way to communicate with the supplier MP 1st Class Supplies ?

I was trying to upload some photo but got a message said my account does not have the permission.
 
anyway i contact the seller, and according to him/her, it is because they have 2 supplier, there for it might be different from the previous version which is detachable.
 
so, better message the seller before purchase. 
 
PS : the one I bought i soundlab orange light weight headphone.

I did not contact the supplier, I contact the ebay seller, and it is what he said that he got 2 different supplier for this headphone.

I thought you were talking about amazon.co.uk
Bad luck with those, but think about the service you just did to fellow head-fiers :)

I think it might be same with the one that sold by amazon uk
As both are from soundlab.

It is better to contact the seller before purchase

The problem is that I can't find a way to contact the selling inside amazon.co.uk
