3 of 5 Nice sound...but there are better options Thursday, February 04, 2010
ciscokid1970 from Dallas, tx
When I wear headphones I have them on for hours. I needed a pair of headphones to replace a pair of old sony MDR 20s...similar to sony v100s.
Ok the speaker diaphrams on the Koss Porta Pros are very good.
The problems I have with the Koss porta pros is the comfort. The ear pads are smaller than most peoples ears. So the ear pads rest on the inner ridges of your ears, combine this with a spring headband that naturally wants to curl up will provide just enough tension to irritate your ears within 2 hours.
The position locks on the sides of the headband do not LOCK in any way, you pick up the headphones with one hand and the earpieces flip to the inside of the headband.
Summary...sound good but not too comfortable.
BETTER Choice Sennheiser HD 201...full cup, great sound $20

5 of 5 Somethin else about Koss Portapro? Saturday, August 29, 2009
Carl Virgilio from Miami, FL
I am going to continue to recommend the Portapro because they sound great.And they’re durable and comfortable. I had a Portapro for over 9 years that withstood the test of time so I know first hand the Portapro is very durable.The Portapro is an audiophile favorite for portable headphones!

These headphones are amazing. I do not like the "ear bud style". These offer great sound quality and are light weight, but the no hassle lifetime warranty is where it is at. Was this review helpful?
4 of 5 Light weight but not sturdy. Tuesday, March 10, 2009
A Customer from Charlottesville, VA
The headphones are compact, light weight and comfortable. The lock for the positioning of the headphones is very flimsy and do not work. That would be my only compliant. Given that there is no reason to have to lock the position, I would so that it is not much of a compliant. Sound quality is very good, especially for the money. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Great headphones Wednesday, January 14, 2009
A Customer from Portland, OR
I bought a pair of these 3 or 4 years ago. I've used them a lot listening to music at work and while traveling. They get thrown into my backpack along with everything else and have survived without any issues. After a couple of years the ear pieces were wearing out but I was able to buy a couple of new sets directly from Koss for a few dollars.
As advertised, they are comfortable and the sound is excellent. I found out about these from the www.goodcans.com headphone review site.
Since I've had mine, I've purchased additional headphones for my wife and daughter. Was this review helpful?

Greg from Helena, Montana
I am very pleased with this product. As advertised: they are comfortable to wear for long periods and produce exceptional sound. I can easily wear them while engaged in activities around the house, or actively listen to all the subtle musical nuances that other headphones eliminate. Overall a great product!
