This is my first pair of real headphones or at least good ones. I had the apple-inear ones before but the sound was just too weak. What do i do to get the best sound out of these?

Listen to them.

Seriously, if you're worried about how to properly burn in a $13 pair of headphones, I'm afraid of what you'll do deeper into this hobby.

That, plus you can always look up the "Kramer mod" for them, in which you drill strategically-placed holes into the metal that's on top of the driver.

Edit: Dammit JDGAFFLIN, you beat me to it by a few seconds.

Even after owning 200-300 dollar headphones, I absolutely LOVE the KSC75, without REAL burn-in OR mods. They are freaking great as-is.

Mad Lust Envy, I am right there with you. After trying numerous mid range phones, I am yet to find phones that I like as much for just listening to music.

Same. I have more than half a dozen pairs of what I think are nice headphones but I probably use these more than any other headphone I own. Enjoy!

Ditto - it's a great little headphone. The closest you can get to truly high-fidelity listening without spending $$$$. There are better headphones out there, but not without going down that road to $$$$.

Whoa cool I am getting my first KSC75 next week. I paid 11 pounds for them, that is slightly more than 13 dollars. I wait for them anxiously.

I wonder how they compare to my Sennheiser HD 438 which were 66 euros.

Don't listen to low bit rate!

I had my KSC75 on my head for 7 hours today...using a headband, not the clips. Buy the headband here for $2
