These over-the-head headphones have a dynamic element design for deep bass performance and a frequency response of 15 to 25,000 Hz to ensure the music comes through clear and bright.

Also designed for comfort, these headphones have two adjustable temporal-comfort zone pads to shift the pressure and perfectly balance the ear plates on your ear. The open-earphone ear plates are multipivoting and, together with the adjustable headband, allow for maximum comfort.

The PortaPros are collapsible and come with a carrying case, so it's still easy to take them with you even when you're not wearing them. A 0.25-inch adapter is included to ensure they will fit with any system.

3 out of 5 stars Blown Driver?   September 7, 2008
Similar to jed clampett "ramsell"'s review, my right driver sounds like it is vibrating and I suspect it is blown. I've had these for about a year, and never play them loud. If it wasn't for this, I'd give them a great review. Yea, they do pull your hair out if you're not carefull.


5 out of 5 stars Great Sound and Value   September 2, 2008
These Koss headphones have an excellent dynamic range and will support full, rich sound in spite of their light weight. Its easy to forget that you're wearing these because they're comfortable and adjust well. They don't squeeze on the ears and head like a lot of headphones do but they stay put comfortably. I also like the way the headphones fold into such a small size, they fit in a coat pocket or computer case pocket. While they look like they might be a little frail, they seem to be pretty rugged. I have a few different sets of headphones and these became my instant favorite.


5 out of 5 stars There Just Fine   September 2, 2008
Works Great if you're not planning on getting sweaty, Sounds fine for the money compared to the price of the XtremeMac class of Ear/Headsets on the market.


5 out of 5 stars Koss Portapros the name says it all   August 30, 2008
These are the best portable headphones i have ever owned . They have the sound of Professional headphones in a portable package. And they wont break as easy as other brands do, the bass is great and its different with every recording;as it is faithful to the bass on the recording. There solid design is why i went with these instead of other brands because i don't see them breaking on me any time soon. They may look strange but at least they wont break ya know. Koss quality is in the name.


5 out of 5 stars Fantastic performance for the price   August 17, 2008
As most who are considering a purchase of these headphones know, Koss has sold this model unchanged for over 20 years. The reason for this is simple - you don't mess with success. While for some the appearance may be controversial, there is an undeniable steampunk-retro appeal to the angular, stainless-steel industrial styling.

Functionally, the Koss Porta-Pro shines. The earpads can be adjusted to be as light or as tight as you prefer. The sound quality and frequency response belies the current notion that one must have in-ear buds to really enjoy crisp highs and strong bass. You will spend 100.00 or more to get better sound, period.

Where these headphones really come in handy, is environments that might have distracting background noise, but do not allow for total isolation. I like to be able to work in my office without distraction of conversations down the hall, but I do wan to hear the phone ring or my name called by nearby colleagues. The Porta-Pros fit the bill to a tee.

Highly recommended.
