## Description

Koss "Porta Pro" On Ear Headphones: desertcart.co.uk: Electronics & Photo

Review: WOW!!! Amazing sound and very comfortable. - Finally, I have found headphones that sound great and feel comfortable. I've bought many different headphones over the past two years, trying to find a pair that don't feel uncomfortable after 30 minutes of continuous listening. Below are two recently purchased headphones I own: Sennheiser PX200: They didn't give their full potential because they sit too light on my ear. They do sound great if you push them close to your ear though. Sony MDR-V300: Sound good with lots of bass, but sometimes I feel like I'm listening to music through a wall and they feel uncomfortable after a 30 mins. For the cheap price they're good. The Koss Porta Pro Stereophones are mind blowing. I really can't express enough in words how good these are and they sound even better now I've run them in. The sound is outstanding with superb clarity and bass. I personally don't think the bass is over done at all, it sounds well balanced. I mainly listen to Progressive, Uplifting, Melodic Trance, for example: Puma White - Copenhagen (Original mix) & Mike Foyle vs. Signalrunners - Love Theme Dusk. These headphones sound great with other genres too and really bring the music alive. The Porta Pro's sound magnificent when used with a computer installed with a decent sound card, but they also sound great with MP3 players. I use these with my Creative Zen Touch and they are far better than the supplied in-ear headphones. These headphones look very retro cool and in my opinion they are very cool indeed. They are the most comfortable headphones I have ever worn (I've had them on for 3 hours and I'm feeling no ear discomfort at all) and I guess thats why the design has never changed since 1984. They look quite fragile at first but they are actually pretty sturdy. The Porta Pro's fold to fit in a small pouch embossed with KOSS which looks rather nice along with a 6.3mm Gold Plated Adapter which is a handy extra. Overall, If your looking for awesome quality and great value portable headphones that sound absolutely fantastic and feel great whether you're travelling, at work or chillin' at home then look no further than the Koss Porta Pro Stereophones. ★ UPDATE August 2013 ★ I've been meaning to update my review for the last few years and finally here it is. I must have about 5 pairs of these floating around now, along with my preciously preserved KOSS Porta Pro 25th Anniversary edition set stored safely in a secret underground bomb proof safe. I've accumulated quite a large collection of different headphones over the years and have reviewed a few here on desertcart. I no longer use the PortaPro everyday as my main home listening headphone, but they still accompany me on trips abroad, because they're great for the beach, as the unique comfort setting helps alleviate any ear pressure and discomfort caused by sand and seawater, and also allowing me to wear sunglasses comfortably. These are not great for commuting because of their open backed design. For home listening, I decided it was time to move up to some Sennheiser HD650's powered by a Graham Slee SOLO SRGII amp, which is quite a big jump, but they are the perfect headphone for home listening, offering superior quality sound matched with supreme comfort. Obviously, the Porta Pro can't compete with the HD650's, but they have a similar balanced and neutral sound signature which I always desire in headphones. My other recommended headphones, are the well reviewed and great sounding Audio Technica ATH-M50, which I mostly use for travelling. UPDATE Oct 2013: I'm now using the superb sounding Noontec Zoro as my portable headphone of choice, as the M50's are a little bulky for travelling. UPDATE August 2014: I'm now using the superb V-MODA XS. These are amazing! One important omission from my original review is the eventual occurrence of rattling emitting from the drivers (know as Grattle). This is caused by hair becoming trapped in the driver, which then produces annoying rattling sounds. To fix this, you'll need to take off the ear pad, then pop off the plastic driver cover (this is quite hard to do, but be persistent, as the PortaPro are very robust) and then use a rocket blower to remove the hair, you can also use a cloth or soft brush (like a Lenspen brush) if necessary, but be careful not to damage the driver. Even after seven years, the KOSS Porta Pro sit graciously on my headphone wall of fame and I can continue to highly recommend them for those looking for the best sounding, most comfortable and great value ultra-portable headphone money can buy.
Review: Superb sound at a great price - Not really sure why I bought these,except to say I'm glad I did...My reason for saying this is because I have several pairs of phones of one sort or another..My main ones being the over the ear AKG 702's...and my in ear ones the SoundMagic E10's....So now I had a reference to listen and compare..and let me tell you..these Koss are a dream to listen to.Never mind those that say they have no Bass..(all I can say is their source must be poor)..and those that say they have no detail (Rubbish)...These will let you hear notes you never heard before..The sound is crisp and clear..the bass, authoritive without being over powering and the soundstaging incredible...I was hoping they would be good and they didn't disappoint..I can see now why Audiophiles have fell in love with them over the years..I missed these back in the 80's and wish I'd knew about them back then...I will add one other point...Running them in for around 20/30 hours will open them up even more from new,so bear this in mind...I would also like to point out,that to get the best from these (as with most,if not all headphones)you need a good sound source,and use an Amp of some sorts...just plugging them into a phone or tablet Will play good...but even better with a portable amp such as Fiio or an amp in general of a home source....then they Will sing like you wouldn't believe...they really are astonishing. I would like to point out that there are fakes out there so be careful especially from Ebay where there seems to be a Flood of them...I could name at least a dozen ..These will be ok from this seller...plus.. these particular ones do not come as boxed as many might have seen...they come in the Black box and are called the Porta Pro Classic...the White box version is supplied with the different cable intended for the Ipad/phone in mind..They no longer come in the Plastic Bowl packaging...if they do I would suggest you look at them VERY carefully and they will be older stock if genuine.These newer versions do not come with the 3.5 to 6.5 plug adapter either,so take note..I think as time has gone on these have reduced in price also due to having a few cut backs such as the adapter,but this is a minor issue for me,but thought I would mention this for others. We buy phones for the sound primarily and the looks and build second...and I do have a few things to say about these topics...The build for sub £30 are very good and of course the looks are straight from the 80's...but you can clearly see this before you buy...so don't moan when you get them in your hands..Despite feeling a little flimsy in the hands there's something that tells you they will stand the test of time,that's why they haven't been changed all this time ..and should something happen anyway,you have that lifetime warranty for the sake of the cost of postage.The temple adjustment does take some getting used to and they reset everytime you put them on and off...firm being the default...this to me seems to be the best setting,but everyones ears are different...They fold away to a really tiny ball...Very tiny...and I treated myself to the hard case to protect them although the pouch (which comes supplied) is well made but offers no real protection if stowed in a suitcase or hold all., so for another £7.50 get one from MOTA,it's a perfect fit...As with all phones,treating them with respect should give you years of usage...and YES I know accidents happen and faults can too. Some have mentioned sound leakage...this is true...but it's no where near as some have said...all I can say is they must have them extremely loud...Normal listening levels will not upset your daily comuter's around you..they are after all//Open back so you will have some leakage,but certainly nothing to hurt. I've heard people keep saying..''These cheap headphones''...YES..they are cheap (although the retail is supposed to be £45 and I don't see that as cheap)..why on earth would they not expect a great sound from cheap headphones anyway..You Don't have to pay top dollar to get amazing sound, and these just prove that..to better these you will have to pay some serious money...cost doesn't make them better. SO...If your still pondering about getting these and have just introduced yourself to the world of Hi-Fi ( Yes I consider them to be worthy under the heading of Hi-Fi) and music these will not disappoint.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: In the box is says Lifetime warrenty, is that correct?**
A: In the UK the lifetime warranty is honoured by Hama UK. You need to return the item at your own cost and pay £5 for return postage and handling. I just returned my headphones for the second time in 9 years - first time the plug became temperamental and this time one of the units stopped working. They don't repair,  they send replacement.

**Q: Are these headphones suitable for heavy metal music (thrash/progressive metal in particular)?**
A: Hi ElvenLord : Sorry, I'm too old to give a specific answer for that genre. I can report on excellent results with old school such as Dark Side of the Moon and Tangerine Dream "The Sorcerer" but make sure your playback has a graphic equaliser app or feature. Also be aware that the range of size headband adjustment is ok but not marvellous.

**Q: Do I get the Koss lifetime warranty, if i buy these from you as oppose to the home site?**
A: Hama offer repairs in the UK and will do it under the lifetime warranty... I think you just need proof of purchase and a £5 handling charge

**Q: are these suitable for a kindle fire?**
A: Yes they work fine with my own kindle fire hd (2nd generation) as they both use 3.5mm stereo jack. This also means they will support most devices such as MP3 players and mobile phones.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by F***T on 15 February 2019*

Seit langem benutze ich bereits die reine "Kopfhörer" Version des Koss Porta Pro und war bislang vollauf begeistert. Für unterwegs eine sehr gute alternative zu den manchmal nervigen und Trittschall übertragenden In-Ear Headsets. Die Offenheit ist Gewöhnungssache. D. h. ich empfinde es angenehm etwas von der Umwelt mitzubekommen. Allerdings empfindet es die "Umgebung" nicht immer angenehm etwas von meiner Mucke mitzubekommen ;) Aber in diesem Falle packt man eben das In-Ear Headset aus. Tragekomfort - aus meiner Sicht sehr gut, Klang sehr gut. Ich entschloss mich nun die Headset Version des Koss Klassikers anzuschaffen und es war- dies vorab - eine sehr gute Investition. Klang wie gewohnt sehr gut - starker Bass, ausgewogene Mitten und ggf. etwas zu starke Höhen. Ebenso hat sich der angenehme Tragekomfort gegenüber der klassischen Version ohne Mikrofon nicht verschlechtert. Die Telefonfunktion leistet gute Dienste. Meine Stimme wird als angenehm empfunden und klar von den Gegenüber verstanden. Ich selbst kann meine Telefongesprächspartner sehr gut und angenehm verstehen. Die Qualität und Haltbarkeit scheint ähnlich unverwüstlich zu sein als bei der alten Version. Dies, obwohl der Kopfhörer ein wenig zerbrechlich wirkt - isser aber nicht - Langjährige Erfahrung. Was im Dauerbetrieb verschlissen war, waren die Schaumstoff Ohrpolster und die bekommt man für recht wenig Geld wieder nachgekauft. Der Austausch ist sogar für mich - mit meinen beiden linken Händen - kein unlösbares Problem gewesen. Einziger Kritikpunkt meinerseits sind die recht dünnen Kabel vom Hauptkabel zu den beiden Hörern. Wie haltbar diese sein werden, wird sich zeigen. In jedem Falle eine gute Kaufentscheidung.
