Koss hit a home run with the PortaPros. Love or hate the design, there's no denying the sound quality here: they're the ideal companion for mobile audiophiles and home theater enthusiasts.

I have been faitly pleased with these headphones. I paid around $30, which is a great price given how good they sound. The construction could be better, since they are a bit fragile, and the metal adjustment band can get caught in one's hair. The pressure adjustments on the sides are not very...

I once had the opportunity to listen to an audiophile's stereo, Bowers and Wilkins 802 series speakers, McIntosch amplifier, and other stuff I don't even know yet. The sound was flawless and felt like I was really there. Ever since then I fell in love with the experience looking to... Read the full review →

I love Koss headphones, and the PortaPro's are some of the best headphones ever made. Not only are they cheap ($30-$40), they rival most headphones that cost up to 5x as much. They are very comfortable. There range is phenomenal. The only down fall that I can think of is when I used to have... Read the full review →

I needed a new pair of headphones (my old wasn't confortable). I have heard alot of good stuff about the Koss Porta Pro, but I didn't like them. This was mainly because I thought the looked ugly, but after some reading about them in different forums I went out and bought them anyway. I... Read the full review →

After reading the reviews for these on Cnet, I thought I would try them out, figuring they would sound pretty good, and $40 seemed like a reasonable deal.

Basically impressions I got at that moment can be described by a feeling of presence at a place my then current tune was performed at. These Koss... Read the full review →

I love these headphone, enough said. They sound phenomenal, look great, are light weight and just great all around. The build quality leaves a little to be desired but this would make them weigh and cost more. Probably the best all around headphones I've ever owned. They are my daily drivers and I...

I bought these at Best Buy for about $50 (you can find them around $35 on line). They may not be much to look at, but they sound phenomenal. I could hear things in songs I had listened to a hundred times that I hadn't noticed before. I could clearly make out each instrument, and nothing seemed... Read the full review →
