Koss R 80

Pros: sound, value, bass response, eliminates surrounding noises

Cons: maybe too big for some people

The Bottom Line: BEST PHONES I HAVE EVER HEARD- and for the money, why argue?

Review: Koss is probably one of the best manufacturers for headphones. The general trend is the bigger the better, pretty much... and these are pretty big. I can't recommend anything smaller than these because of the fantastic sound quality and price of these...

Pros: Price, Comfort, Sound Quality

Cons: None

Review: I'd been looking for a decent set of headphones ever since my old ones started deteriorating and leaving black dust on my ears. Then there was a half price sale at Radioshack and my friend Steve got the last pair. I believe those were $100.00 (CDN)...

Pros: THE SOUND!! better than others costing 3-4 times More.

Cons: None so far, but I have not had these long..

The Bottom Line: SOUND SOUND SOUND. These are the great. Who needs to spend 200 dollars on headphones? No one if they hear the R-80s first!

Review: The sound is REALLY good, as good as phones in the 200 dollar range, in my opinion. The bass is deep, and tight, with presence. And the highs are really clear with no tinny sound. Everyone that hears them comments on how clear they sound. They go plenty...

Pros: Studio Quality, Comfortable, Inexpensive

Cons: None

The Bottom Line: if you don't care about having sleek in-ear headphones, get these.

Review: these are the best headphones that i have ever owned. i believe that they are at the bottom of Koss's studio line of headphones.

one good feature of this unit is the detachable cord, which can probably be replaced by a longer one or one with a...

Pros: Great Sound and Very Comfortable!

Cons: None

The Bottom Line: A great pair of headphones for the excelent price!!!!

Review: I live in a small house, and there is not alot of room for speakers. The only solution for me was to get headphones. I have tried several lower end sony pairs as well as some from cheap :) Senheiser headphones, but when I first put on the Koss R/80s I...

Pros: Coiled, 3-D DSP, comfortable

Cons: Cant wear for long periods of time

Review: I got the R-100 and at first glance were blown away. The packaging seemed professional and the cans were very appealing. The model I received had two cords, both with coiled wiring. One coiled wire had a 3-d DSP on it that was very neat to play with....

Pros: Excellent sound, bass, and comfort!!!

Cons: No on-cable volume control

The Bottom Line: These are the headphones for you. They are comfortable, they sound incredible, they are incredible headphones!

Review: I was searching for the perfect set of headphones. The only problem, I was a little strapped for cash. I actually came across this little gem on eBay. The price was right, but knew it was a gamble because I wasn't able to hear them or try them on...

Pros: Soft pads enclose your ears. Great sound!!

Cons: Where would I get a replacement cord?

The Bottom Line: A great mix of near-audiophile quality and consumer price. If you finally want to ditch those of walkman-style headphones for something good, get these.

Review: UPDATE: I am rewriting my previous review since it was lousy. I hope the new version is more helpful ...

Pros: Comfortable all day. Good fidelity. Strong bass.

Cons: I hoped for even better isolation.

The Bottom Line: These are an excellent value for their balance of isolation, comfort, and fidelity.

Review: These headphones are comfortable to wear all day. I'm no audiophile, just an amateur musician who expects fidelity. To my ear the sound is outstanding. I listen to jazz, classical, and vocals. I like the deep bass that comes through.

As for...

Pros: High quality, low price, comfortable

Cons: Size adjustment tabs are fairly loose and cheaply made; In-cord volume would have been nice

The Bottom Line: These headphones provide more than enough quality for the average audiophile at a much lower price than the competition.

Review: When a professional A/V technician bought a co-worker of mine some Koss R 80 headphones, I took that as a pretty strong endorsement. For about $30, these headphones have more than enough sound for the casual audiophile.

These closed-ear...
