headband not detachable from drivers ..
but if you pull strong the drivers from the headband positions , they will break from the holder and leave place for something else you'd want to work-on (or glue on) .

lol anyone want to ship a pair to the UK?

i'll pay shipping plus extra $$

you know you want to

 

[boodi]

the site says they will ship internationally

 

[sonic_rage]

yep, but ships internationally at an obscene price.

 

[YamiTenshi]

Well indeed it is a bargain but I will take the PP anyday over the SP, the Portapro look a lot sturdier, this look really flimpsy, I own two of the PP2 and they are really well done for portable use....

 

[sonic_rage]

but you cant go wrong for 13 bucks flat...

PP2 at J&R is cheap too, but with shipping it comes out to just under 26$, double the cost of a sportapro.

Well, that is fair enough, I think....

looks like you're in the same case as me

 

[J-Pak]

And ordered

I doubt I'll use them too much, but Koss lifetime warranty guarantees me a beater headphone if I'm not in the mood for IEMs

The Sporta-Pro are the most easy to carry on , very un-noticeable for my head and ears comfort-wise also because I like to wear them on jogging , and they give me the best air feeling while sound's on too. They're foldable . The Ksc-35 are Sport-Pro on clip , nothing more nothing less , they can be better or worse then 35' depending only on your comfort point and use , the sound is very similar to Sporta-Pro , maybe a millimeter less airy ; they can be clampy (or not, depending on own ears shape and skin sensibility) with the clip ; they are not clampy on my ears ; they weigh on ears where Sporta-Pro weigh or press (very lightly) on head . The Porta-Pro are the more bulky , more weight , not foldable , same sound , so no brain for me their behind both Sporta-Pro and '35. The Ksc-75 are not same tier as '35 ( sorry for '75 fan club ) less musical , less bass , less groove , more grainy highs , more bulky , and toy-look too. I find the 35 and Sporta-Pro the more versatile , being lightweight and useful in different situations , and fun sound , "the" head-fi introductory portable headphone everyone should own, and a steal for their price .

The PortaPro's fold, are extremely light weight, and are just as comfortable as my A700s. A lot of people seem to have the misconception that the PPs don't fold. They actually fold quite a bit, and are quite compact when they are folded.

[sonic_rage]

the portapro2 looks just like the portapro with slight differences; i think they look cool!

im a sucker for the retro styling.

Can someone post a picture of these folded and with the cloth carry bag? Thank you
