Review on Massdrop x Koss Porta Pro X On-Ear Headphones: 🎧 Noise-Cancelling Mic, Voice Assistant, Track Skip | Collapsible Midnight Blue by Wiktor Pozna ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I am amazed at how well made the product is, just magical!

When listening through headphones, the listener is treated to a sound that is as close to the original as money can buy. For headphones in this price range, a THD of up to 0.2% is impressively low. Furthermore, the stated range of 15-25000 Hz "by ear" is 100 percent off the mark. It's hard to make a call on the skewed frequency response in this region because. The maker doesn't give any details about this. Taking it "by ear" once more, you can rest assured that everything is straightforward. For well over a year, I've relied on it. The music sounds great to me. We have adequate bass (up to 15 Hz - it's true, don't look at the size) and treble, and the midrange is unclouded. Totally harmonious tones. I was skeptical of their durability at first, but they've held up for over a year and a half now. The logos and paint on the temples have faded off completely, the foam pads have degraded and been thrown away, but the ear cushions are still in good shape. The jack's cord is sturdy, having survived the cold and repeated bending. They were used in the cold (on a hat) and held up well, with no change in volume. The unusual feature of these headphones is that they provide zero isolation from outside noise. Give this some thought before making any purchases. Personally, I find that my ears feel less fatigued after listening to it. You need decent player gear, of course. When playing a CD-DA disc on a Panasonic music center, for example, the sound quality is noticeably lower than when playing the same disc on a computer with an E-MU 0202USB card.

Pros
  • The primary benefit is the sound quality, which is improved by a factor of two hundred (relative to other headphones in its price range); the convenience of use, the adaptability; the fact that the pads do not cause discomfort to the ears even after prolonged use (six months to a year); and, strangely enough, their dependability and durability. Although they appear to be made of paper, I have used them for over a year with only moderate accuracy.
Cons
  • I can't seem to locate it yet.
