My curiousity got the best of me, so I finally broke down and bought a pair of the Koss UR40 (via the web). The UR20 and UR30 are OK, but are very boomy and don't have a great tonal balance. The description of the UR40 makes them appear to be a closed headphone that uses drivers similar to the great KSC/Porta/Sporta line. In addition, the earpads and headband look like they'd be fairly comfortable:
At around $30 plus shipping, they're dirt cheap for closed headphones, so if they turn out to be anything close to the Koss headphones mentioned above, they'd clearly be the best closed headphone below the Sony MDR-V6, and might be able to compete well with those
I'll post a review after I receive them.
