    A sound that has not changed ... in thirty years:)

    How long have you use it?
    More than 20 years (I renewed my purchase one time after 10 years)

    Have you tried many other models before buying it?
    No ... or so headphones available to me as a bundle with other products ... Brief nothing to do with the Porta Pro in terms of quality.

    What is so special that you love the most, least?
    + Ease of use due to its lightness. (No pain in the ears)
    + The frequency response is linear. Note, two small bumps in the bass and treble. Is negligible.
    + The price
    + The strength
    + Legend

    There are no less ... in 20 years of use (the legend)

    This headphone is awesome in every way!
    Friends of the low, you will not be disappointed. The midrange and treble are excellent.
    The look 80 years is surprising at first, but since listening comfort and usability provided by this jewel, we start to appreciate faster!
    One minor snag, if you have long hair, the control system with two metal hoops can pull the hair if you do not blunder in removing ...
    If you hesitate to invest tell yourself that in addition it is guaranteed for life!

    - How long have you use it?
    I've had two weeks

    - What is so special that you like most and least?
    Comfortable
    Very good music reproduction
    The bass is superb

    - Have you tried many other models before buying it?
    Compared to the Sennheiser PX200 (highly rated on this site), the Koss PortaPro is more comfortable, we feel less on the bay windows, the bass is better, more musical, less transparency in the treble. I prefer the Koss to listen to music and PX200 for decision ambience sounds.

    - How would you rate the quality / price?
    Super price / quality ratio

    A choose first.

    I use these headphones for a month now and not much to complain about.

    It is lightweight, can be a bit too much which may suggest that it is a little cheap bill. Like other reviews I'm not very confident about its longevity. Although I think we can trust Koss who also plays on his reputation for advertising. The sound is very well rendered, real serious (I'm bass player) the highs are good. As for the serious media can be a bit feeble but again nothing nasty for headphones at this price point. It was soon surprised by the 80's headphone, to the point where I thought I had a toy, a walkman headphones of the 80s (you know those headphones with orange ...) but we are also surprised by the q…

It was soon surprised by the 80's headphone, to the point where I thought I had a toy, a walkman headphones of the 80s (you know those headphones with orange ...) but we are also surprised by the quality of sound . The connectors are gold-plated. A small thing to say about the length of the wire (a bit short in my opinion) but again nothing too serious. Note that this headphone is guaranteed for life!

    I have not tried 36 models and I especially relied on the advice of other users Audiofanzine. I needed a headphone quickly enregisrer mini studio and now, an internet search, a command and that's it. Two days after I received it at home.

    The price / quality ratio is probably the best that can be found on the market. No complaints.

    With the little experience I have with this material, I would do the same choice again.

    Nice and lightweight headset purchased new (without cover) to less than € 40.00 in France! So I'm not going to complain to the value prix.Paraît fragile.Sons rather pleasant without being aggressive bass present, good mids and highs (they are not worth the bass), good presence générale.J have had many gold headphones it's worth it.

    It's been two days dj I use with my Creative Zen Touch.
    Superb bass at last! Balance in the other frequencies.
    I have tried many, it's a bit better than the PX-100, and MUCH better than PX-200 ... Although the PX-200 has great clean sounds.
    For 30 via the Amazon excluding shipping, is a case in 79 Virgin Flac & Cie is a scam pure and simple! I'm still shocked!
    I find it comfortable, it's an open headphone so that does not isolate, but isolated enough for the street, the RER in tronons not too noisy.

    I use it for 2 years.
    I use it as mobile headset for my laptop: I also had a small bose, but I prefer the PortaPro.
    For the price, I can not complain about this headset: it is precise enough, strong enough, comfortable enough for anything less than € 30!
    It folds, takes up little space and with the mini-mouse in the laptop bag, it was a busy place great value / quality.
    To be clear, this is not a stereo headset is a headset troubleshoot. And gender, should be fine.

    The dynamics are impressive. Low power and are well kept, with an unusual level on a headphone View Categories of this, the medium rather is natural, treble is not specific on aggressiveness. Each instrument detaches with precision. This headset reproduces music alive. The cost is never tiring.

    Associations
    This headset features a noise like a magnifying glass. He resents the mediocre sources which will obviousness the defects. Branchs on my laptop, which sound card is not a model that has the quality of results are very bad, but in fact the height of the source. Same with MP3 encoded poorly, or a bad MP3 player.
    I test iPad nano is already very good. You can even occasionally marry this headphone hi-fi quality. This is not an aberration.
    As it is a semi-open headphones, you continue to hear noises outside. This can be an advantage or inconvnient as usual as we a. In addition other hear hissing loud enough. Gnant is for example for use in transportation.

    In use
    : Mechanical comfort of this headset is questionable. It does not warm the ears, is trslger, but I have a little trouble even stand for several hours.
    These headphones are foldable and fits in a pocket provided.
    The headset connector is a mini-jack, but it comes with an adapter jack.

    Robustness
    He accompanies me throughout my five years has been moving. The foam pads provide some signs of weakness, but there are easily replaced. But mostly I dont no false contact dplorer. So I would call excellent robustness.

    In conclusion
    It is a product with great qualities endearing, but not in NUD default.
    Most are its sound quality, robustness, a report qualitprix unbeatable.
    The least, these are some intransigence on the quality of sources, its questionable aesthetic and relative discomfort.
