The PortaPros are collapsible and come with a carrying case, so it's still easy to take them with you even when you're not wearing them. A 0.25-inch adapter is included to ensure they will fit with any system.

Koss offers a lifetime warranty on its PortaPro stereophones.

Product Description
For nearly 25 years, the Kos Portapro has been a folding headset designed for professional listening performance with portable audio devices. With new MP3 player and iPod use, the Port-a-Pro is even more popular for those seeking a comfortable alternative to earphones. Elevate your listening with Portapro. First introduced in 1984, this high quality portable stereophone set performance and comfort standards for personal listening worldwide. Over the years, much to the delight of devout Porta Pro enthusiasts, we've preserved the original design and performance that made the Porta Pro a portable music icon. Today the Porta Pro remains the headphone of choice for the discriminating listener. Designed for those with refined musical acuity, the Porta Pro continues to be the most user admired portable headphone for discriminating listeners who prefer a light headrest over earplugs.

The Porta Pro features dynamic elements that deliver exceptionally rich, deep bass and a remarkably wide frequency response from 15-25,000 Hz to capture every nuance in your favorite movie or musical performance. Constructed from mylar, the elements are extremely rigid, minimizing mechanical distortion and ensuring exceedingly accurate sound reproduction. Neodymium iron boron rare earth magnet structures enable the Porta Pro to deliver greater volume so you can hear every note, even when competing against the sounds of a commuter train with a low-voltage MP3 or disc player. Oxygen free copper voice coils improve signal transmission and conduction for cleaner, clearer sound. Foam earcushions provide an open, hear-through sound that lets you keep in touch with your surroundings perfect to wear while running, at work, or while traveling. 4 Feet Long wire with miniplug

Koss PortaPro Headphones Excel at their job November 23, 2008
StuPenndus (Woodbridge, CT United States)
We first experienced these headphones in the 90's when visiting the Science museum in Chicago and were blown away by their frequency response and accuracy. My daughter has been using ear-bud type phones - you know, the type furnished with the iPod. She began complaining about ear pains when listening via this type of headphone over a two year period, yet would not use my huge ear-cup type that I find comfortable. Not only were ear-cup phones inconvenient to lug around, friends were going to really make fun of her - she stated to me. We bought and tried 3 different types of on-ear headphones at various stores before recalling that I had seen the Koss phones on-line. I took yet another plunge and ordered them from Amazon. My daughter was skeptical at first, but once she had evaluated the sound quality, lack of weight, high level of comfort, low size form factor, ability to fold in to a compact form, and intelligent design, they became a hit. We bought them for approximately $32.00 and I ended up buying a second pair for myself from J&R. Strongly recommended for those who insist on minimizing hearing loss into old age and like listening to non-distorted, true-to-life music.

I just got these headphones a few minutes ago and plugged them into my computer and I can say that these are the best headphones I have ever used! They are light weight and sometimes you might even forget you have them on there so comfortable. I have owned a pair of Skullcandy Smokin' Ear buds that broke and these are way better. There is NO uncomfortable feeling wearing these. Earbuds are a bit picky when it comes to getting good quality and comfort. These however have had the best quality from a headset or ear buds ever! Sound quality is AMAZING!

The bass and treble is EXCELLENTLY mixed. Never before could I hear high trebles in the presence of heavy bass. You hear everything with these.

Buying these is completely worth it!
Forget high cost headphones or earbuds, get these and you will never want to buy any other headphone/earbud set.

Hell Yea! November 17, 2008
Konrad Grossman (whereever I want to be)
These headphones are pretty sweet. The sound quality is great, and they really do look sexy. A few girls actually asked me out just because they thought they looked cool. The only complaint I have is that they hurt my ears a bit after using them for more than 30 minutes straight, but I think that's because I wear my glasses while using them. Just a thought. These have a lifetime warranty though and are super cool. YEEEEEEAAAAAAAAA BOOOOOOOYYYYYYYYIIIIIIIEEEEEE!
