Like the title says, anyone know of any good portable headphones? I do quite enjoy the Shure SRH240's that i'm using right now, but there is no way they're gonna fit in my bag. I have a budget of about $60-$80, and I'd prefer for them to not open-back, since i'm usually surrounded by a lot of...

Okay, here goes - I originally had a Koss ESP-950 rewired with Stax 007 cable and termination (sounded fantastic). The headband broke (couldn't assemble it), so i sent it to Koss, but made sure to remove the Stax cable before shipping. Well, they sent me a brand new ESP-950 with Koss wiring...

So i was looking at headphones which don't need an amp and for use with my laptop and willing to spend about $60-70 tops. I went through jokers portable shooutout thread and found the CALs to be of my liking but I can't seem to find them at that price. They have to be fully circum-aural and not...

I sent my (Stax cabled) Koss ESP-950 headphones into Koss for repair (after I had removed the 007 Stax Cable).  All they needed was a headband repair since they no longer 'stayed together'.  My question is, does anyone know how long it usually takes Koss to respond/repair and return...

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

Hi folks!  Just joined here.  I've been checking out your forums and reviews for a little bit, and decided to join.  Looks like a great site.   I was looking for a nice set of inexpensive portable headphones that sounded great and were comfy too.  I liked my wife's Porto-Pros, but decided to get...

Hey Head-Fi'ers,   I am looking at making my first canalphone/IEM purchase, however I am hesitant at buying any brand or model for one reason: comfort.   I have a set of Koss KSC75, which I find very comfortable, and a set of Audio Technica AD900, which I find very, very comfortable, but...

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...

Hi guys, i'm new here. I really need your help with choosing my first proper headphones. Currently have Sennheiser PX 100, used to have Koss Porta Pro[fantastic headphones] Now i'm looking for ones to use at home. I listen to many kinds of music[rap, rock, brit pop, reggae, pop...] also will use...

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.

I borrowed my roomate's Koss PortaPro's, and they sound pretty decent. A little muddy in the base, but pretty decent for the $30 price tag.   I'm getting an Altec Lansing UHP 606 (rebranded Super.fi 4, with some lower build quality standards, but 4x cheaper). But I want something a little...

Hello everybody :)    I need help figuring out what model these Koss headphones are. I bought them a year or two ago from Wal-Mart. They sounded pretty good for the price ($25), but they clamp very tightly and depending on how big your head is (mine is small), they won't completely cover...

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...

Can someone do a comparison between these two? I recently got the the KSC75 as an upgrade to my Meelectronics m9's and i love em.

 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 ?

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...

My dad had some old headphones in the basement that he's not using anymore. I believe the model number is Koss Pro-4a, but the writing is rubbing off and I can't be sure. Other tan that they are in excellent condition. They are closed headphones, with a cord attached to one ear and olive-green...
