The Koss PortaPro collapsible stereophone combines high-quality sound reproduction with a unique design for the ultimate in convenience and comfort.

Also designed for comfort, these headphones have two adjustable temporal-comfort zone pads to shift the pressure and perfectly balance the ear plates on your ear. The open-earphone ear plates are multipivoting and, together with the adjustable headband, allow for maximum comfort. 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. |

the best use of $30 ever |
although the portapro has been around forever, and many reviews have bashed its classic design, i've actually been recieving compliments for it.i think the design for the portapro is soo old that the younger generation think of it as something modern.
hmm, as many people pointed out, the portapro will pull your hair out. but this problem can be simply solved by placing a piece of tape over that area.
the sound is amazing, everything is so clear and bass is strong.
as far as potability, the portapro CAN be rolled up into a ball an placed into a pouch, but i dont even bother to do that. instead, i just wear it on my neck all day. it is definitely stylish :)
the portapro IS comfortable. it has cushions above the ear piece that clings onto your head. this really helps keep the headphone on the ear even if you are actively moving and removes the pressure your ear may receive as with other headphones. hmm, it does not have behind the head option, so a visible headband mark on your hair will appear.
there is a comfort zone option, that i never use.
overall, the portapro is a great product and definitely worth the price. it comes with a lifetime warranty. it is definitely a must have for people who enjoy hi quality sounds and make the perfect gift |

Koss has a winner |

These are on my my favorite headphones. It has a retro look about it. The sound quality is great, especially for the price range. Much better than the default ipod headphones. |

I am VERY impressed .... |
Recently the pads on my Sony Noise-Canceling headphones had become very badly worn, and since they weren't terribly comfortable WITH the pads, I decided it was time to get some replacements. After asking around for suggestions from my Audiophile friends, and looking around on the web, I found a list on [...] of their picks for the 5 BEST headphones for use with portable music players. These were on there along with a lot of other headphones that costs LOTS more (Specifically the Bose QC2 & QC3.) And they listed the retail of these at around $50.00. Since that was about what my Sony's cost - I started looking around & found them on Orderitdiscount for just about $30.00 ! So I figured it was a pretty clear "can't lose" situation, and ordered them. Oh, how right I was ...
First off, even though the delivery estimate was 6-10 days, I got them 3 days after placing my order. They were smaller than I expected, but I very anxiously brought them down to where my laptop was (since that is where they will be used the most,) started up my favorite Internet Radio Station ([...]) plugged them in & put them on. All I can say is WOW ! They sounded SO much better than my Sony's the difference was startling. The bass response was HUGE & the fullness of the mid range & highs created an almost surround-sound environment. And no matter how loud I cranked the volume, I couldn't detect ANY distortion. I can honestly say they are far & away the best sounding headphones I have ever had - and to get that kind of sound from a pair of $30.00 portables is astounding !
My only complaints about the phones has to do with their folding form-factor. They are designed to fold in towards the headband with the ends clipping together to form a loop. Trouble is, they still just BARELY fit in the leatherette bag provided to carry them in. And most of the time while putting them away, they have a tendency to spring back open, which complicates extraction. But this is a small detail I can definitely live with.
One other note, I thought I'd pass along. The drivers these headphones use are also used by several of Koss' less expensive headphones as well. So it is very likely that you could find a $15-20 pair of Koss headphones at your local WalMart on a rack with all the low-end Sony, Skull Candy, & Memorex headphones, and STILL get the same sound quality that you can have with the PortaPros. I can't vouch for the headphones construction though.
Bottom line is, for the price I cannot imagine finding a BETTER pair of headphones than these. If you're in the market I would definitely recommend these above anything else. You will NOT be disappointed |

An absolute steal for the price |
|
These headphones are fantastic. I bought them because I had only used earbuds prior and felt that listening to music on serious headphones would be a good idea. When I got them I was blown away. They are not the best headphones ever, but for 35 bucks the quality is sky high. The fold-up apparatus is nifty and useful, so I seriously recommend them to anyone in the market for great headphones. |

Great Headphones |
|
You'll have to spend over 150-200$ to find better sounding than these. The design is okay but lets be honest if you want great sound this is it. Hats off to Koss. |
