Wow! I'm so glad to know that Koss is still going strong

My stepfather introduced me to Koss over 20 years ago when I was a teenager. My first pair of Koss Porta Pros introduced me to a whole new world of sound and gave me subtle and deep new insights into the music I already loved and enjoyed. Now in my 40's I was looking for a new pair of headphones and was so happy to stumble upon these limited edition Porta Pros. I'll quickly list the pros and cons: Pros: The SOUND is amazing! It's all about the sound, and if you want a nice way to hear the music you already love, you should get it. I've always loved these headphones for how comfortable they are. I just put them on my head and they're so comfortable I kinda forget they're there. I don't run or train with them but I've been on a leisurely walk and they are great. Cons: They're not wireless. If you need WiFi, I understand and understand, so you can skip it. Deep super bass isn't always there. Don't get me wrong, the bass on these is awesome, but I know there are super boom basses out there that might want more from their EDM or hip hop. If you're specifically a bassist, this may not be enough. I love powerful bass sound and that's enough for me. Overall: I think you'll be happy as long as you don't need wireless devices and aren't looking for heavy workout headphones.

Pros
  • Enjoyable
Cons
  • Good but not great
