I've read that the ball joint can become worn away, which is why I try not to pop them on and off too many times. The KSC75s have only been popped off the headband once or twice since I got it and that was only to try the Sportapro drivers on the headband.
I'm not sure they were designed to be popped on and off repeatedly but at least they're pretty cheap to replace if they end up goosed. I've actually got a spare set in case my current pair breaks.
Yeah, I didn't like the first headband I got so I did more swapping than I should have. I tried to be careful and thought I had the right technique from watching a youtube vid, but I guess these clips are pretty fragile. If it comes down to it I might just end up picking up the massdrop version to use with my PE headband since I like the black (might need to recable though) and put these back on the original clips which probably hold better.
Definitely go with the Yaxi pads. Good improvement in pad longetivity, comfort, and sound. You can get 2 pairs of different colors for $20. Yes, cost more than the Koss original replacement pads, but definitely worth the added expense.
Softens treble ever so slightly while improving the bass definition, and provides more air. Overall, just more balanced sounding with slight increase in sound stage. Just my 2 cents. I love this setup!
I do. I personally like the kph better than the ksc75. You lose some upper end quality but the improved low end is totally worth it to me. My favorite budget headphone.
You can order directly from koss as well. I think it's the same price as drop but you can choose your colour.

The beige color had me waffling for a while, but I had convinced myself that I was okay with it. But you are correct that the price with Koss is very close, so I cancelled my beige massdrop order and ordered the grey's from Koss. Thanks!
Kind of cross posting from the PortaPro thread. Got my Yaxi pads. I'm digging them. Sound about the same, but ups the comfort level considerably. This completes my portable sound setup. PortaPros/KSC75s + rockboxed iPod video with iFlash SD card adapter.
