They are "JUNK"
by
on
January 12, 2005
Pros: Sounds ok.
Cons: I broke the "cheap plastic" arm that holds the speaker. It cost me $10 to ship it to the repair center to fix it. My son broke the very same replacement "plastic" arm... At that point I broke everything by throwing the "JUNK" against the wall!!!!! Stupid

Summary: I bought these headphones to have a great sounding pair of headphones to use while watching a movie at home without disturbing anyone. Before buying them I read the reviews to see if they were worth shelling out $69. The only other option would've been to buy the more expensive Bose TriPort headphones at $149. Once I started using the Pro3AA headphones I was impressed with the rich sound that these headphones were able to produce. However I took them off after watching a movie and while taking them off the left piece above the headphone speaker broke in two. I thought, great, now I have a 69 dollar pair of headphones that I can no longer use. Although Koss does offer free repair of any of their products if you register them on their website. All you pay for is the shipping. So I'm going to send them to get repaired, and hopefully have them back as good as new. In the long run I did purchase the more expensive Bose TriPort headphones.

Extremely Fragile

January 6, 2005
Pros: Great sound, comfortable.
Cons: Between the two pairs (one pair I sold to a friend) I've owned and the pair my roommate has. One ear cup is still attached in the original way. A slight bump the wrong way will crack the ear cup off.

Summary: This is the best pair of headphones 've ever owned... period as soon as i got them i turned on cochise by audioslave and these things are so clear i could actually hear the amplifiers being turned on! These headphones are great! I turned on some rap music after that because i'm into alot of types of music. I turned up the bass a woa! these things Will punch you with all the bass! The only complaints i have are they're a bit large..but i don't mind. These headphones have one delicate piece that has a very bad history of breaking. Its the small peice where the band connects to the ummm.....silver fork thingy....sorry don't know that to call it anywayz that small piece has a very bad history of breaking so be careful with them but if and when they break u just go online it takes two minutes to register and just send them to Koss and they'll fix em. These baby's come with a lifetime warranty...which is basiclly unheard of in any kind of electronics..... WEll yeah.... if you don't have 500 bucks to blow on some noise cancelling headphones with a tv built in(that'd be sweet) then get these!

Summary: Well, lets start this out by responding to some of the other "notable" reviews. As one said " unit broke easy when my son played with it". Well, you are not really into this stereophone thing are you? Let your kids play with anything and POOF it eventually breaks. Another i noticed was "after 8 hours of use, my ears hurt" Well, uhmm, 8 friggen hours?? do you have a life? I am not sure whether you are saying that your ears hurt from the pressure of the unit or the fact that music blared into your ears for 8 hours straight. Now, onto my honest as can be review..... I have always owned koss. They have always treated me very well. I branched off to the Bose QC set. I didnt like them. Before you judge my mentality, the Bose was definatly worth the money! The sound was incredible. The fine tune on the trble was great. The dislikes i had was after 10 minutes of wearing them, the pressure gave me a headache and the batteries were expensive when you have to replace them weekly. And, of ya, they dont work without the batteries in them. As for the noise cancelation thing, thats what a volume nob is for. I dont fly so thats out. Anyways, i found these Koss Pro3AA and i had to try them. I have had them for about a year and let me tell you, i love them!! Some issues with the highs being to defined on some songs, and the plug is starting to mess up where i have to spin it at times to get both sides to work. But i plan on sending them back for repair soon. All in all, price aside, these are great. I listen to these on the computer all the time with my iTunes and it is a step away from my normal hectic life. As for another review said "volume not high enough on PC" well bud, the Bose wasnt either. Thats why i bought a NewQ Platinum Equalizer. If the Bose is low volume on a pc, so isnt just about anything out there. So the bottom line is, i highly rec this unit as it is the best i have had so far.

Summary: I was very pleased with these until I reached up to move them from around my neck and the plastic hinge snapped. One hinge had already been broken (from someone else using them) and I thought that it was just carelessness until it happened to me. They are extremely fragile.

Great Product For The Price
by
on
October 12, 2004
Pros: Precision @ $60, wow. These sound sound like a million bucks. That's what counts. I bought these on a whim, and am loving it every moment.These fit me perfectly with my medium head.
Cons: No volume adjust, a bit bulky, and the only thing that i don't like is the low signal to noise ratio. But these do not outway everything else. I give it an 8.

Pros: Crystal clear sound. Tight accurate bass. Isolates sound so you don't have to listen to others and they don't have to listen to you.
Cons: Not the most comfotable phones to wear. After 8 hours my ears hurt.
