Koss ?The Plug? Earphones: A Tragedic Saga of Failures, Part 3

Date of Review:  Jun 17, 2003
The Bottom Line: Make sure you're comfortable wearing foam earplugs for hours on end before purchasing. For extreme bass lovers only (with the mod). Tinny and weak without the mod.
Review: I have small ears set close to my head, and I've had a devil of a time finding the right earphones to wear with my MP3 player. You can't beat an earbud's ability to deliver soundwaves directly to your eardrum, but most earbud speakers are...

Mini but Mighty

Date of Review:  Jun 8, 2001
The Bottom Line: If you like earbuds, these are a great pair. I told at least half a dozen of my friends and co-workers about these.
Review: My introduction to The Plug came by way of a web page about The Boosteroo, an in-line headphone amplifier. The author of the web page amended the page to say that he switched over to The Plug and did not need the amplifier anymore.

Given...

Bluesman NY: reviews the Plug and the Spark-Plug

Date of Review:  Apr 10, 2006
The Bottom Line: Low cost, excellent sound, great fit, blocks out noise, SUPER Bass
Review: I bought my first Koss Plug two years ago. It made my cheap little RCA Lyra Sound awesome - extra bass - I can play it on 'Flat' and still get good Bass. On 'Rock' and 'Jazz' EQ, it kicks butt.
I bought a second pair for me and one for my kid...

Awesome sound, but not what I was looking for

Date of Review:  Apr 26, 2004
The Bottom Line: If you are looking for a pair of headphones to use on a train, these would be a good choice, but these don't do well with exercise.
Review: While riding the train to my summer job every morning, and for working out, I liked to listen to music. I needed new headphones, and when I saw these headphones, I decided to give them a try. These headphones have pretty good sound, but there are a...

HORRID!

Date of Review:  Apr 24, 2001
The Bottom Line: Koss The Plug delivers the most boom - not bang - for the buck. Period. Run - don't walk - away from this product!
Review: A salesperson at Best Buy persuaded me to try Koss The Plugs. At first I was moderately satisfied, but the novelty quickly wore off. The Sony MDR-EX70LP is a much better choice. Much better.

The Plug produces lots of bass. But the quality...

THIS IS A NEW MODEL!!!! MUCH IMPROVED!!!

Date of Review:  Oct 17, 2001
The Bottom Line: Comfortable, decent sounding, lightweight, isolating ear buds for $20 with a lifetime replacement warranty.Make sure you are getting the newest model.
Review: Koss's original "Plug" headphones had many shortcomings listed in other reviews. If as if Koss read all these negative reviews and corrected all of them! Now there's service!

The hard plastic pipe has been replaced by a soft vinyl pipe...

Pretty Stinkin Cool For The Price

Date of Review:  Apr 13, 2004
The Bottom Line: Despite some vehemently negative reviews I've seen, I consider these to be the absolute best combination of features and price in this genre of earbuds
Review: I use mine in the gym exclusively, and have no problems either keeping them in, or with discomfort- I forget they are there and wonder why I can't hear what anyone is saying in between tunes.
The sound is as good as any set I have ever used,...

A good idea at least

Date of Review:  Aug 30, 2005
The Bottom Line: Unless you don't plan on moving much or have ears that will keep these headphones in, I wouldn't use these earbud headphones.
Review: I got these Koss earbud headphones for Christmas last year. I had been asked for them due to the fact that I often sit on regular headphones, smooshing them to beyond repair, and so I prefer earbuds or wireless headphones. My husband picked these...

The definitive review!

Date of Review:  Oct 25, 2002
The Bottom Line: Excellent for bass-addicts who can't listen to music without good bass! Be prepared to fiddle quite a lot to get them to stay comfortably in your ears!
Review: Before I start, don't be put off by the length of this review - it's all good stuff!

Having put up with some tinny little Sony earphones for ages, I desperately wanted some new earphones that would deliver great sound, but most importantly...

Plug What?

Date of Review:  Jul 13, 2001
The Bottom Line: If you require a small portable headphone then by all means try the Koss plug. But not before looking (and trying) at some alternatives.
Review: My wife got me a set of THE PLUGS in December for Christmas when I asked for some headphones for work. I wanted something discreet that would not scream "I'm NOT LISTENING TO YOU.... I DON'T WANT TO LISTEN TO YOU... etc.. etc..." When I saw them I...
