Koss's innovative stereophones are designed to reduce outside noise so that you can enjoy full sounding music at a lower volume. These earphones make use of an ear-cusioning material that slowly expands in your ear canal to provide a custom fit and isolate your music from outside sound. Low impedance operation makes "the Plug" easy to drive from portable playeres, and they boast an impressive frequency responce at a rock bottom price. These are quite simply the best deal available in noise reducing, low cost earphones! 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...

Koss ?The Plug? Earphones: A Tragedic Saga of Failures, Part 3

Pros Good sound isolation- but this can be dangerous in some situations.
Cons Extremely difficult to position correctly, uncomfortable, won't stay in place, sound...
Recommended it? No

I have small ears set close to my head, and I've had a devil of a time finding the right earphones to wear with my MP3 player. You can't beat an earbud's ability to deliver soundwaves directly to your eardrum, but most earbud speakers are uncomfortably large for me, and many of them have inferior... Read full review »

Mini but Mighty

16 Helpfuls 17 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Small, Loud, Great Bass, Short Cord
Cons Annoying Mute Button, Overly Bright Treble
Recommended it? Yes

My introduction to The Plug came by way of a web page about The Boosteroo, an in-line headphone amplifier. The author of the web page amended the page to say that he switched over to The Plug and did not need the amplifier anymore.

Given my nit about the Aiwa XD-DW1's low maximum volume,... Read full review »
