    low volume listening

    I've read some reviews pointing GS1000 good for low volume listening. I don't own GS1000/i. I've owned K701, DT880, HD600, HD650 but I can't say these are good for low-volume listening.

    Kudos To KOSS!!!

    I was skeptical about Koss products (after purchased a cheap Koss earbud ) 4 years ago. After KSC75, my opinion was changed drastically. Now I've got Portapro, ksc35 and ksc75 with at least 2 pairs each. Haven't tried other Koss products, may be some more gems hiding in them ?!

    Does something beat the Portapro ?

    25th anniversary edition Portapro reached me today. http://www.head-fi.org/forums/f103/k...review-416234/ Portapro, KSC-75 and KSC-35 are the best purchases I've made so far.
