When a professional A/V technician bought a co-worker of mine some Koss R 80 headphones, I took that as a pretty strong endorsement. For about $30, these headphones have more than enough sound for the casual audiophile.

These closed-ear phones are quite comfortable. Some complain that... Read full review »

Pros The sound is quality.
Cons Wearing these makes you look like an idiot.
Recommended it? No

Some things are such of a cataclysmic failure, that they circle their way all the way back around to win. One example would be Buddy Holly's (and later, Elvis Costello's, and after him, Drew Carey's) glasses. Dorky though they were, the glasses were practically synonymous with the people...

Stylish Look, Great Bass, Clear Sound

Pros Great sound, great bass, comfortable fit.
Cons Can't lay your head back while wearing them... No sleeping while wearing!
Recommended it? Yes
