I wonder how they look like?

There's an easy way to find out!
Actually, was in the San Quentin prison twice in October and although I didn't get a really good look (and before I developed an interest in phones) everyone seemed to have the same white translucent pair. Definitely looked like Koss quality... if you know what I mean.

I liked this quote from that article: "Many corrections officials disagree, since offering — or withholding — such items or activities can be useful in managing the prison population."
I laughed out loud when I heard it. It's like the warden would say to a prisoner: "You've been a bad boy today, so you won't get to listen to your clear KSC-35s!"

wow, I never knew Koss was number 2 in headphones sales next to Sony.
Come to think of it, I can't really think what other company would be number 2... I wonder who's number 3.

do you mean for the KNIFE or for the STASH? cable-wise it looks sturdy enough... prison-use of headphones seems somewhat broader than outside
KR, i think you've been hijacking this thread - hijacking is a criminal offense so you might get first-head experience with some seriously transparent koss phones soon
but wait, isn't wise-cracking a criminal offense, too...
in that case i'd be honored to share a cell (and a koss) with KR...

So exactly how were they abusing the lifetime warranty?
*poor taste alert*
"Please find enclosed pair of fried phones. Since Bubba was technically still alive on the chair at the point where the phones were damaged, I would like to claim a replacement. Sincerely, Hamilton (Bubba's bitch)"
