Koss Porta Pro

Pros: Good bass

Cons: Lousy mid and treble, leaks sound

Review: I have previously owned the SportaPro brand headphone and I can honestly tell you to save your money and go with something else. There are just too many reasons why you should not spend the 30 dollars to get this pair of headphones:

1:...

Pros: great sound quality, compact size

Cons: snap to face tightly, sound can be heard by others

Review: When you buy a pair of headphones for under $30 you honestly shouldn't expect them to sound like your home stereo, but quite honestly the Koss Sporta Pro come close.

I decided to purchase a cheap pair of headphones for use at work since my...

Pros: Comfortable, adjustable, affordable, good sound.

Cons: Probably not the best choice for people who can pay more.

The Bottom Line: If you're just an average Joe who wants a nice pair of headphones on the road these are great. Audiophiles would probably want to spend more money anyways. :)

Review: There tends to be two kinds of headphone shoppers. The ones who just buy whatever is at the local electronics store, and those audiophiles who can settle for nothing less than the best.

I, however, fall somewhere in the middle. I'm not an...

Pros: great sound and foldable

Cons: Looks cheap

The Bottom Line: Considering the size Koss PortaPro is the best headphones. Koss give you a lot of sound back for the money.

Review: A friend recommended me these headphones back in 1996. Now I own two pairs. I have got one set at work and one set at home. The sound in these head phones is great!

For about two years ago I decided to buy even greater headphones than...

Pros: High quality, Superb sound, lightweight and compact.

Cons: None

The Bottom Line: Forget expensive, bulky headphones. The Koss PortaPro delivers fantastic sound, plus they're light, inexpensive, and durable. Some of the best headphones every manufactured!

Review: I've had my Koss PortaPros for at least 15 years (I think it's closer to 20). The foam covers wore out a few years ago, but those are easily replaced.

The owner of a high end stereo store persuaded me to get them. He claimed that they were...

Pros: Light, comfortable for hours, cool, folds down, reliable Koss sound quality

Cons: I really like these, always have, but two feet more cord would be nice

The Bottom Line: An outstanding pair of headphones, more than suitable for almost all activities, at a reasonable price, and very recommended.

Review: A Little Background


I bought my first pair of Koss Porta Pros in 1986 and absolutely loved them. I thought, at the time, that they were quite definitely the best headphones I had ever heard. If I remember correctly I paid about...

Pros: Amazing bass, tight crisp highs, great value for price

Cons: 80's design, somewhat tight for those with big heads

The Bottom Line: Sounds so good you won't care that they look like they fell out of the 80's. Absolutely amazing!

Review: These still amaze me. I bought them after searching the web for reviews of portable headphones with good bass. You can scour the web and the only negative thing you'll hear about these PortaPros is that they're not the most stylin' phones around...

Pros: Comfort. Sound. Comfort. Sound. Did I mention, comfort and sound?

Cons: People will give a double take. Weak cord connection to earpieces. Not good on plane.

The Bottom Line: Very customizable comfort - especially if you wear glasses or your ears stick out a little, but good for everyone. Incredible, excellent sound. Lifetime warranty.

Review: The fact that Koss has had the Portapros in their product lineup for well over a decade, without changing, means something.

Unlike many reviewers of these types of things, I tried a few headphones here and there, but really spent months...

Pros: Great sound, extremely portable

Cons: they look funny on my head

The Bottom Line: They sound great, and they're very portable, but they look so dang funny!

Review: I need to start with a small preface, I love sound, I m obsessed with it, and I listen to sound all day and all night on all different speakers and TV s and car systems. Due to my audiophile nature it is very possible there are things that would...

Pros: Incredibly clear,distinguishable highs+lows,never distort. Foldable.

Cons: Campy, 80's look. Flimsy, badly crafted earpieces. Easy to break. Wire not long enough.

The Bottom Line: Incredibly sound quality you have to hear to believe. YOUR HEADPHONES SUCK COMPARED TO THIS ONE in terms of sound quality, bar none.

Review: I bought these speakers before going to Cuba when I bought my portable Mp3-Cd Player, made by Koss as well.

When I first attached the phones to the player, it seemed like the maximum volume wasn't very high and even though the bass was...
