 very good and short of excellent December 25, 2008
Sound of Koss portapros is truly remarkable. Great sound for any price! My one complaint is that they are a little heavy and not quite as comfortable as I would like. Works best when clips on side of each headphone are pushed back for loosest fit. Also, wish the headphones were a little more portable. They don't really fold up as small as I would like. Lest I sound like too great a critic, I would purchase them again. In fact, I sent my son-in-law a pair for Christmas.
 Uncomfortable!! December 22, 2008

Though the sound quality of these headphones is not bad at all, the comfort factor leaves a lot to be desired. The buttons for adjusting the headphones to your head size do not work. The headband is extremely flimsy and catches on hair. And I ended my first day using these with a massive headache because they were just too tight and could not be adjusted for proper fitting. Koss - back to the drawing board.
 It's a "GO" December 22, 2008

The metal band has a "U" shaped bend on one end which was digging into my head. I used some pliers and straightened it to look like the other side of the band and the problem was solved. I use the headphones primarily for jogging, but also to do chores around the house. I forget I have them on. I'm hearing sounds come out of my running music that I didn't know existed after hearing these tunes so often. The sound is magnificent! If I were to make a redesign change, I would use an "L" shaped mini-plug vs. the straight plug so I can close the cover on my waist pack. I would also like to see a single cable coming from one earpiece instead of the "Y" configuration. Otherwise, I love this product for its comfort and great sound.

i bought my porta pros in 1993.
6 years before the first amazon review.
they have over 1.5 million miles in my 18 wheeler.
listening to am/fm, xm and mp3 sources.
the right driver finally blew this week.
i've bought senheisers, grados, and akgs and they sound better and are twice as rugged as the others.
only shortfall is they need an inline volume control.
i have a spare pair i'll be using while mine are back for warranty.
Very Good December 21, 2008

Incredible sound with incredible bass.
The only problem is that you can`t wear it for a long period, because you start to feel it on you head or ears.
