This is my first post.  Simply amazed at the wealth of information that this site provides to newbs like me.  I have searched but haven't found exactly what I am looking for.  Traditionally people use IEM for the gym (I own Monster Turbine Pro Golds and Ultimate Ears Triple Fi), but I do not do...

Hey guys,   I'm looking to buy extreme budget headphones as the title says. The main purpose for these headphones is for use in front of a computer along with an input keyboard. Since these will be bought en masse for a school library (like 10-20 max), the ideal price range for them would be...

Hello all, i currently am in need of a budget pair of Clip-ons, such as the Koss KSC75.   There have been many companies trying to get into the clip-on market (such as the Panasonic RP-HS46-K and Sony MDR-Q68LW)   and i just wanted to know what is considered the best clip-on. Thanks!    

I am very interested in other users impressions compared to their other amps they have or had, cos so far I don't see much of that here, maybe I missed something, but than again, see couple of threads going where the shipping or how good Arrow is been discussed so far only, but without...

Hi guys,   The plastic clips on my Yuin G2s snapped recently, so I was looking for some replacements. I hear the KSC75 clips are more durable, and I remember a member on these forums mentioning something about replacing Yuin G2 clips with KSC75 clips. I was wondering if this is possible, and...

An unusual question! What would be a good (cheap) headphone to wear when you are going to bed? you know for a little relaxation after a tiring day, before you fall asleep. KSC-75 seems close, but, I am afraid that they will break easily. Some thing like a earbud would be nice, but, I...

Hi guys,,,need your help in choosing the best out of two 1) JVC HA S160  or 2) Koss KSC75 After reading a lot of reviews im bit confused among the two. My preference is a decent/ punchy bass, smooth n clear vocals and detailed highs. I dont like V-shaped headphones and i literally cant stand...

I'm new to headphones. I was recommended a pair of these Sennheiser's, which to my knowledge is a good brand. This guy knows a lot about headphones and it fit my price range of about $20-$40ish.   I want to know if they are good for the money or if there's a better pair out there for the...

First, they sound great right out of the box. They seem a little muffled, but I've been using my D2000's almost exlusively lately so I may just be used to that sound. How will burn in affect the sound, and what is the recommended burn in time? Also, I have no idea how to use the comfort zone...

I am a bit of a lurker on these forums...I usually come around when I am thinking about buying something new.  However, I had an experience with Westone that I feel ought to be put out there.  I didn't really see a lot of threads on this but I may be missing them.   I bought a pair of...

ksc75 at ncix.com (canadian pc hardware site) for $15 just click on the triple savings week banner and its near the top i just ordered 2 (max that you can)

I'm looking to get a pair of gym headphones (one of the ear pieces on my PX-200s broke, so they don't make a good seal). I've been considering the PX-100s and the Koss Porta Pros, but unless I'm mistaken, these are both open. Would these be good for the gym, or would too much noise leak in? Any...

Hey I just received my Koss KSC-35 that I bought from Ebay (25$CAN shipped) and I just keep falling off my chair listening to music with them. No they are not better than the HP-2, but for 25$CAN... Is this a joke? At first I saw them and I tought I wasted 25$; crappy plastic headphone...

People that usually look for bass are typically recommended closed back headphones like the Sony XB series, older M50s, DT770 Pro 80, Denon D2000, etc. How about those of us that want our slamming bass presence from open backed headphones? The benefit of open backed headphones is known for us...

Hi there, bit of a noob to all this stuff, but recently got myself a pocket amp 2, and a sendstation pocket dock to see if I could squeeze some extra life out of my iPhone 3GS and my Sennheiser HD555's.   But..   I cannot for the life of me hear any difference. Am I going deaf? I have...

I recently made a big decision to take a leap of faith and experiment with my treasured M50's. Although it turned out to be a much bigger project than I first thought, I'm completely glad I did it.    I've always wanted a good open headphone after I bought the M50 for the soundstage and...

Can anyone suggest a dependable pair of earphones that I can get for under $30? I recently bought a pair of cheap MEElectronics M2P-BK for a cheap price and I liked them a lot, but they broke within a few hours of using them.

hey guys!!!  plz review koss ksc75 recabled with krammer mod and 75ohm adaptor :D!!! Thx in advance !

I am looking to replace my 10 year old pair of MDR V600. I use these headphones to listen to hemisync and meditation stuff in bed, and sometimes casual listening around the house. The pads (and the headphones) have become crap, but the headphone's relative flatness makes them comfortable to...

I need to find my mom some budget headphones but real good music quality mainly for ipad/iphone, would like some good bass but more importantly good balance.  Any suggestions?   Thanks

Hey there,      I have been a long term follower of the forum on Head-fi but this will be my first actual post =). Over the years I have owned a Koss ksc75, Sennheiser HD201, Sennheiser HD580, Sennheiser HD595 and thoroughly enjoyed them. Recently, I decided I wanted a different sound and...

On the recommendation of this forum (through lurking), I snagged meetronics mi-9 recently because I wanted a cheap IEM.  I am not a headphone addict, but I appreciate basic quality and have really (really) enjoyed KSC75.  Great sound for a song.  Well, maybe my expectations for MI-9 are just...

Snuck into my school's art center today and snatched some metal wires... and came up with this:       I attached the cans with some duck tape and voilà! a custom headband that perfectly fits my head that cost ZERO dollars xD It sounds surprisingly good for $14 cans, without the...
