A friend has this pair of cans and wants to know what they are.

Any ideas?

It's a koss, but I can't remember the model name.

Wow, they look really vintage.

Do they actually work?

They look like the Koss SP3, but those had writing on the headband that said Koss. Maybe their OEMs made by Koss.

Man; those things are beyond ugly!

Sweet! Thanks for all your responses.

Koss OEM was my first reaction but looking at the construction, its really very poor. I think a Koss clone by some company on the scale and calibre of Elisabeth or Tandy.

I'll bet they're not very comfy and sound like ass. I'll offer even odds on them having 4-ohm paper cone drivers.

I was about to ask in a smart alecky voice how you'd know what ass sounds like when I kinda remembered wearing someone's ass as headphones at least once in my misadventures and it being quite comfortable.

so...erm....carry on....
