Rating: Summary: Excellent headphones for the price. Review: I bought these headphones to use with my newly-acquired TDK Mojo mp3-CD player. The combination of the headphones and the player produces great sound. I'm not an audiophile, but I listen to all kinds of music and these headphones do a great job of thumping the bass when they're supposed to, and highlighting the background flute when they're supposed to. There's no volume control on the phones and the cords come out of both earpieces, not just one, but for 25 dollars, you're not going to get frill features like those. Koss is a well-known company that makes quality products. I've used these things almost daily since September and they're still going strong. The cord is long, the sound is extremely good, the cost is relatively low, and the earpieces are comfortable for hours-long listening. What more do you need?
Rating: Summary: Great 'Home' headphones Review: I got these as a gift and was surprised at the high quality sound and excellent noise isolation. I listen to music (and the radio) mostly while working on the computer.These may be a home product but you'd be hard pressed to find higher priced studio headphones which would provide better overall response with such clean bass. Check them out!
Rating: Summary: Okay for a cubicle dweller Review: I got this as a birthday gift last year to use at work and it does the job well. It eliminates background noise pretty well and audio quality is good. Ears do get hot after a while ( a couple of hours) and you'll need to relieve the heat every now and then by taking it off. Structurally the cable connects to the headset with the phone-jack like plastic connectors. These look quite flimsy. I have been careful about how I use treat the cable, but the plastic connector will probably get ripped sometime or the other. All in all, for the price it is a good buy.
Rating: Summary: Not Too Bad, Not Too Good Review: I got this item for a price that would have been a little over the top for a GOOD pair of headphones. The sound quality was good, and you can always expect that from a Koss quality headphone, but the only downside to this is that the durability is not too great. Mine started breaking after only 3 and a half months. However, i would highly recommend that everyone should buy the Koss TD - 61 because it is one of the greatest headphones that i have come across. Yes, it is on amazon and you can go to the headphone section and click on Average Customer Rating. What surprizes me is that it was actually less expensive than the Koss TD - 10, and it only has much better quality and durability. I wouldn't recommend this product to anyone who would take it for jogging or running, but what can i say, it is a STEREOPHONE. In conclusion, do not buy this product if you want the best in quality (there are better headphones and prices out there!).
Rating: Summary: Great sound, relatively cheap, lousy ergonomics Review: I had a pair of the Koss TD61 headphones (their low-end headphones) and really liked them. When I had to replace them, I went one step up in their product line. These headphones produce very finely detailed sound, even at very low volume, and provide excellent bass and treble response. My only problem with these headphones over the TD61's is that the TD61's earpieces fit comfortably over both ears, while these earpieces are noticeably smaller. The result is that these headphones press my ears down against my head while I'm listening to them. This may get uncomfortable after a while, especially if you wear eyeglasses. It also took me about 5 minutes to find the labels on which earpiece was stereo left and which was right.
Rating: Summary: Good quality for the price Review: I have been a loyal Koss fan for quite some time, and I must say that I am very impressed with the R10 headphones. They have a very 90s look to them and a good quality for a good price. Thumbs up for me!
Rating: Summary: I keep coming back!!! Review: I just purchased my third pair of these headphones because they keep breaking at a rate of about one pair per year after the rough treatment they get in my college dorm. Don't get the wrong idea though, they break because they get knocked off my desk and onto the hard floor at least once per day, and they still last a year or so! The sound quality can't be beat either. I used to buy nothing but Sony headphones, but they just sound hollow after listening to these. You will be hard pressed to find a pair of headphones with such great sound quality (and amazing bass!) at such a low price. They can be moderately uncomfortable at first, but give them a day or two and they stretch out to a nice fit.
Rating: Summary: incredible sound performance, bad producing quality Review: I once have KOSS R100. It is light, comfortable and provide both strong bass and crisp mid-frequency response. HOWEVER, you got to be careful when you put on and off it from your head because it has a fragile plastic connection at earpads and headband. Mine is broken already at both sides. :(
Rating: Summary: R-10's - Good sound, bad fit Review: I ordered these for both gaming and stereo listening; the sound is as good as can be expected from a [price] pair of headsets. The problem I have with them is that they crush my ears within 5-10 minutes. (My hat size is 7-1/4, so they might be comfortable with smaller heads). I thought of re-shaping the headband, but I'll keep looking instead.
Rating: Summary: Affordable, Quality phones. Couldn't be Happier Review: I ordered these headphones pretty much because I had a few bucks left on an ... gift certificate and figured since I had already ordered a portable mp3 player and spend so much time on the computer listening to music (while working, surfing the net, wasting away time, etc) I could always use a pair of quality headphones. I plugged them in and opened up my Winamp playlist the moment the headphones arrived and I took them out of the box. I couldn't be happier with them. You know how there are certain aspects of a song you can only hear when listening to it through headphones? Background music, instrumental, balance tracks, sound effects and certain sounds to a song you just can't hear when listening to them through speakers at a normal volume level? These phones really make every part of the songs I listen to stand out. Songs I've heard thousands of times through speakers or my previous pair of mediocre headphones are completely new pieces of music for me now. The bass is great, outside noise is effective blocked out and it just seems every song I listen to now has a completely new, fresh, better sound to it. Without exagerrating, I can say that listening to one of my favorite songs with these headphones for the first time actually gave me goosebumps because I heard parts to that song I had never heard before. For the price and the sound quality, these phones are an excellent buy.
