Big sound, little money

Date of Review:  Mar 20, 2001
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...

The things on your head

Date of Review:  Mar 18, 2001
The Bottom Line: If you want some headphones with good sound get them but they break fast.
Review: I own a pair of these koss headphones and im not complaining about the quality of the sound but the they just break. One day i brought my headphones to the club and put them in my gym bag. Like most people you have the little tiny headphones that...

The R-80s are wonderful headphones

Date of Review:  May 30, 2003
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...

Koss R-80

Date of Review:  Feb 19, 2003
The Bottom Line: Don't bother buying these headphones. They are a waste of money. Go for a higher-end pair of headphones.
Review: I bought these headphones a year ago and I am very disappointed. On a low volume they sound great. The music is very clear and pleasant sounding. If I turn them up loud they lose their quality. The reason they lose their quality is because the bass...

ok Do not know if this is covered by warrenty Hope so

Date of Review:  Dec 24, 2004
Review: The conection cord was not tight at the head set.
Keeps falling out and there is no stereo sound because of the bad conection. Would not recommend.

Clear, but uneven sound

Date of Review:  Sep 30, 2003
Review: I bought these online, and tried them as a result of opinions on epinions.com. At first the headphones were uncomfortable, but started to fit right after a few hours. The construction on these headphones seem good, but the coiled cord is a bit...

excellent value

Date of Review:  Jun 12, 2002
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...

amazing

Date of Review:  Feb 20, 2003
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...

Great sound for a great price.

Date of Review:  Jul 22, 2003
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. :-)


History:

- In use for two years
- Used with Sony and Aiwa mini-systems, a Sony minidisc player, an Apple PowerMac...

GREAT SOUND, GREAT VALUE

Date of Review:  Jul 27, 2001
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...
