Koss UR10i Lightweight Headphone, Black: Unparalleled Audio Experience Review

The sound quality is pretty bad, much worse than I expected and considering how little I paid I wasn't expecting much. Very hard with poor mids and very weak bass. I have several other Koss headphones that are larger but cost more and I was hoping they would at least be acceptable. I think the moral of this story is that you get what you pay for.

I wish I had seen this earlier. I bought a more expensive pair of headphones that didn't fit my youngest child well. However, this headset fits his head/ears well and is NOT so big that the earbud doesn't sit on his cheeks. They sound great and have a clean, simple design. You did very well with backpacking to and from school. Useful purchase.

The sound quality is a little worse than my older Koss but still good for the money. I first discovered Koss when I bought cheap $5 noise-cancelling headphones at Kohl's. I was surprised at how good they are for what I thought were disposable earbuds. Has served me for 4 years, I hope it stays that way. Tried the Walmarts Onn brand, they died a week after I bought them.

Excellent, durable and lightweight headphones. Very comfortable, good price. I mainly use my tablet for watching shows etc so the sound quality is good for that. For music I think it's ok but I'm not an audiophile and yes they aren't as good as significantly more expensive headphones but for the price I'm happy with them. Update January 2018 Also works for seniors who wear hearing aids. (in the ear), the ability to listen to an audio book on an Amazon tablet. Very durable, use them daily and…

EDIT: I've bought more headphones for this price and they are better than this one so I'm giving them one star. I love you, Coss, but that's not even decent. I have KPH30i, Porta Pro and KSC75. I love them and still use them even though I have $100-200 headphones. I ordered them, expecting them to sound as good as their siblings or even a little worse than them. I've had a pair for a good month and they don't even sound like they're made by the same company. I've hooked them up to the amp…

I bought these to keep on my bedside table if I wanted to hear or see something on my phone at night as I have a bad habit of reading the morning news at night before bed. It's an old habit, like I did when newspapers were in fashion, but they didn't emit blue light. Anyway, I wasn't looking for audiophile sound, but as a music lover and vintage vinyl dealer, I know what good sound is. I wanted something that I could silently stream music to if I wanted to listen to some tunes at night or if…

I confess I didn't have the highest expectations for these cheap headphones - what can you really expect for less than 15 euros? - but Koss was a brand that seemed to excel at making affordable, surprisingly great-sounding headphones that were built to last. I have used Koss UR-20 headphones before and these things have failed for almost two decades! Sure, they ended up getting pretty dirty and the earcup material steadily deteriorated, but I've never had any issues with the wiring or the…
