But for the price, and to have as say, a back-up pair, these work well. Perhaps this is wholly due however to the fact that for me anyway, the fit isn't up to the usual standard. These headphones reproduce sound quite well, but seem to lack in the lower frequencies. They might get a little tiresome for everyday, long-term use. I have had many other headphones and earbuds that fit better in the ear. These just don't want to go in very far or to stay there. But again, maybe they don't fit ME too well and others might not have that problem. Apart from the fit, they do sound quite nice.
I love these. The bass is great. I just ordered another pair to keep at work.
These sparkplugs are the best value in ear buds for about twelve bucks or so. Koss will replace them if damaged for a fee if you mail them in; they've replaced mine three times over the years and been very nice about it when I've called, great customer service. I do the trick of covering up the holes with a little circle of clear adhesive tape and the sound compares to any buds or mini-headphones I've tried. The spongy rubbery covers are VERY comfortable and do a great job of blocking out noise on an airplane or in the subway and you get two sizes. However, I keep a spare pair because I can't stand to be without them for even a week, I went through that the first time I had them replaced and never again. I threw out four pairs of earbuds and two headphones and gave a pair of Apple iPod ear buds away after that incident, none compare under fifty bucks, at least not that I've tried.My only complaint is the cord tends to tangle when you're not wearing them but that's not peculiar to this brand.
I think the sound was pretty good but one ear stopped working under normal listen conditions.
Overall a good product for the money.The noise isolation is fantastic, and when you turn down the bass on your MP3 player these are some very nice headphones.My only warning would be to not change the cushions it come with. After trying to pull the cushions off the actual plastic of the earbud split in 2 and I needed to glue it back.customer service never sent me an email back regarding this issue.
