and does the koss ksc-35 need to be "burn-in" cause i find the "high" to be fatiguing (sp?)?

headphone.com does not sell the JMT-CHA47. where can i find them?

My koss 35s took about 50 hrs to burn in... its worth the wait.

JMT is a member here and I believe you can contact him via pm.

Click on the members tab on top right and sort thru the user names until you find "JMT" and drop him a Private Message. I purchased a cmoy from him, he's a very nice guy, easy to deal with. Best of luck. O yea, burn in: basically just keep playing your tunes thru the 35's...eventually they will sound much better, some folks on here just play music thru their new cans for a few days straight, whether or not their listening to them. Dont blast the volume either.

final question ,

i heard that koss is no longer making the ksc-35? is it discountinue (sp?)

should i stock-up on the ksc-35

My 2 pairs are slightly different. One has a silver/nickel/whatever plug, and the other has a gold plug. One came with the Koss pouch, and 1/4" adapter, and the other had neither. The phones themselves are identical, though. There doesn't seem to be a definite answer as to their status of being discontinued, but Headroom says they have plenty in stock.

I just got a set of KSC-35s for Xmas (GF ordered through Headroom--thx guys!) and so far they seem great, though of course not burned in yet.

FWIW, I did get the gold connector and case, but no 1/4" adaptor. Is it the same as any radio shack adapter?

They seem to fit really well, looking forward to using them outside.

 

[tracylynn]

i got the same version as u, porieux, gold plug without the 1/4" adaptor.

i also bought the Senn. mx-500 [from headphone.com too].... well it sound like crap. sh!+.... its doesnt even sound like the sony mdr-e888. am i missing something? u guys have mod for it?

Koss claims they are discontinued and have been replaced by the KSC-50. As close to "definitive" as we're going to get
