Koss Porta Pro Bluetooth Headphones Review

I hate to write this negative review for a wonderful sounding pair of headphones. However, it gets a second star because it sounds so good, otherwise it would have been one star. The problem is the worst Bluetooth connection I've ever experienced. First, it won't connect to any of my Apple products (all my other wireless products do). I have tried several fixes to no avail and will not factory reset my iPhone 8 or iPad to try to connect my headphones! The headphones now connect to my Android…

I've been a longtime Koss fan since I found the set at my local RadioShack in the early 90's. Today I follow the release of their new products through their email marketing. Some Pros and Cons of PortaPro Wireless. + Compatible with other Koss 60 ohm headphones.

Considering the limited lifespan and other downsides mentioned below (regardless that they only have a one year warranty unlike the original PortaPros), I can't in good conscience recommend them to…

I've been a big fan of the Porta Pro line for almost a decade. With mobile phones ditching the traditional headphone jack lately, I've only had to use my Porta Pro headphones for home and work use. Headphone design. The sound quality is exactly what you would expect from the Porta Pro. The build quality is slightly higher than the wired version in my opinion. I can't prove it, I don't want to do experiments to prove it, but the wireless model seems a bit more solid than my wired Porta Pro…

In 1984 the Koss Porta Pro was designed simply as an improved portable telephone with exposed headphones to replace the relatively poor-sounding headphones that came with a Walkman or Walkman clone. In doing so, however, Koss created a legend. Not only were the Porta Pros incredibly comfortable, they sounded great too.
