Home and portable audio take on fresh life with quality headphones, and Koss's lightweight, closed-ear UR40 is designed to keep outside noises out and headphone sound in--perfect for use in busses and libraries alike. With its extended frequency range of 15 to 22,000 Hz, you'll never miss a single bass note or want for high-frequency splash or shimmer.\nThe UR40's titanium driver elements ensure taut low end and clear treble, while its collapsible headband design further lends it to portable applications and protects the headphone when not in use. The headphone comes with a four-foot, dual-entry cord and a .25-inch stereo adapter for use with hi-fi components. Less

Great light weigh headphones

bydreammaker182 Jan 16, 2007
9 Helpfuls 10 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros light weight, comfortability, dynamic range and trebble
Cons short thin cord, lacks the bass of other headphones of this catagory.
Recommended it? Yes

These headphones are really lightweight and have a really good dynamic range. You will not miss any trebble tone with these headphones. The bass is a bit weak but the UR-40's make up for this with comfort and low noise inside or out of the earcups. The only thing that I would change about these... Read full review »

Great value headphones

Pros Lightweight, Comfortable
Cons Weak Bass
Recommended it? Yes

These Koss entry level headphones are great for everyday use. They are very light and provide decent sound. The sounds isn't as crisp and the bass isn't as deep as more expensive headphones, but for this price it is definitely good. The headphones are comfortable and fit nicely, but will be felt if...

Best Sounding, Best Looking, Most Expensive Earphones Ever!

bybobby1digital Feb 4, 2006
18 Helpfuls 19 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Exceptionally clear mids, and highs. Extended bass response. VERY comfortable.
Cons Expensive, Bass could be better for price range.
Recommended it? Yes

Let me first start off by saying that I am not the type of person that would normally pay $300 for a set of headphones. As it turned out I had a large store credit burning a hole in my pocket, so I ended up paying $269 for these babies at Ultimate Electronics. All I can say is that these are... Read full review »

Best ear buds I've owned

bydouglw Mar 18, 2006
14 Helpfuls 15 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros High quality, great sound, variety of ear pieces, the cord.
Cons Price.
Recommended it? Yes

I once heard something on a commercial that really sticks in my mind: "You'll remember the quality long after forgetting about the price". Yes, I saved the $299 and it hurt spending it on these my Shure e4c's, but they're well worth it. I chose not to save money by buying online because I wanted to... Read full review »
