Porta Pro I Prolite Wired On Ear Headphone without Mic (Black)

Audio quality is really good even though the pair first came out in the 80s. A bit bass heavy so people who are into hiphop or other genres with emphasis on the lower frequencies would totally love this pair. Although there are some "iems" that are cheaper and offer a better sound quality theres one thing the porta pros have that they dont, and thats peak 80s looks. The headphones themselves are so comfortable you WILL forget that they are even on. Cons: Audio will leak while listening in higher volume levels as they are open back headphones (listening in and around 65%-70% seems like a sweet spot where audio is clear and also very minimal leaks) As they are open back, not quite suitable for listening to inside a bus or say public as sound leaks both outside and also comes inside. Really good pair for listening to indoors could even compete with well known headphones audiophiles love that are way more expensive than this pair. 10/10

Really cool headphones, doesn't have any mic or play paise button, the blue plastic is a little bit faded than the one in the image. But because of the sound and the comfortness it's worth every penny, definitely would recommend to the audiophiles

I love my koss headphones, they have a vintage feel to them. Great for when you want to take a break from bluetooth earphones or headphones. The music quality is not the best. There is a lot of sound spillage since the ear pads are very tiny but either ways great for regular use.

Really quality product with respect to sound. I have Sennheiser PX-80, and used it for last 3 years - i can certainly say this sounds better that that. Amazing clarity, performance. Bass heads may not like much, but i prefer clarity over just bass boost. I got it for 3,490...Now I see it is nearly double, then think again. You can go for Sennheiser HD599 SE instead.

Excellent sound quality

It stands up to the expectations of being comfortable. It seems fragile but it is durable as well. The one is recieved is with mic, when I order without mic so thats a plus.

It's Sound Quality is one of the best . It's wearing comfortable is also good due to very light in weight. Super product. Must Try

Writing this review after using this for months. I'm satisfied with its quality and light weight design. It is sturdy and provides very good quality of sound. A very good product from a good company.

Alright so I got them on a pretty neat discount. Back then I wasn't willing to pay the full price, and now that I have one I'm still not convinced on the 50+ cad price. Yeah sure it's wonderful pricing for such a great sounding headphone, but did you ever consider the consequence of taking such a plunge? I mean go on the internet and you'll either find raving reviews saying these are the best in class, or immeasurable disappointment who foolishly set too high of an expectation to get what they expected: Not good enough. When you buy one of these as a hobbyist, you look back at your audio, wondering where you've gone wrong. It's not quite audiophile enough to replace my more expensive, albeit larger sets of headphones, but it's not quite bassy enough to satisfy my basshead beast that's leaching off my life essence (curse you Sony Extrabass and your extra-bassyness that not even the bass the fish can sate my evergrowing lust for extra bass). I'd compare the bass level to what sony throws out on their non-Xtra-Bass lines of headphones. There's enough width to sound to almost pretend I'm in the place of recording... almost. It just lacks that little bit of something that ruins the immersion. Yeah sure it's wide, but what's the point if you're fully aware that what you're listening to is only a sample of what the audiophile world has in store for you? The audio listening hobby quickly shifts from a minor purchase here and there to irresponsible spending in a blink of an eye... and before you know it you've created a black hole in your wallet where your hund-o's used to live. That's what this is, unsatisfying in any way you look at it, if you've gotten a glimpse of what it could've been with a few more tens, hund-o's, or grandies to spend. Build quality is competent, but I wish the clamping force wasn't so hard, and the foam that's supposed to sit on the head to alleviate the problem doesn't reach my big, dumb head. Comfort is there, but not enough. The furthest settings for the "comfortZone" (which adjusts how much pressure the earpads assert on your poor ears) is just not light enough for my sensitive ears. I don't think I can spend a whole day wearing these without my ears getting sore. Good news for glasses wearers though (at least some of them), the pressure is put on the antitragus and the tragus, so though you'll get discomfort (or at least itchiness) in those middle outer parts of your ears, your glasses frame will likely not dig into your skull! But of course your mileage may vary. The cable is not noisy at all, though I don't think that matters much considering that these are open back, and you'll definitely hear the cable whack around furniture due to careless usage. The audio quality, though really good for the price, short of a miracle that everyone claims it to be, and a bit too bassy for ex-bassheads (and not bassy enough for the bassheads). It's a pretty warm sound, but the mids and highs are present enough to make it seem like it just has that extra bass on top of a balanced sound. Sure the driver units can be popped off and attached to other attachments (I've actually gone and put them on a KSC75 earhook), and the foam pad can be replaced with the much more comfortable and better sounding YAXI earpads... however I'm reviewing the product as it's own... and without any accessories (except a "protein leather" egg bag), this product is not good enough for all the praise everyone's screaming out... But that's what it is. Disappointment if and ONLY IF you set your expectations stupidly high based on reviews bowing down before its presence. If you ignore all the fans (somehow) and just buy the product expecting nothing but a 50$-sounding headphones, prepare to have your socks blown off to next sunday cuz this set of headphones is the best retro-style good-sounding headphones for the money! When you buy this, don't expect a giant-killer; Be humble, and you'll get more than you've bargained for. If not, at least these do well as conversation starters and/or room decoration.

A great product that is still going strong. Easy to drive and good comfort.

After discovering my sister and her family were totally without tunes recently, I couldn't stand it, so my wife and I gifted her a small stereo system and a fair number of CD's for her birthday, as well a set of these Koss headphones to replace the cheap earbuds she'd been using for ages. She loved the stereo, but incredibly, it's been the headphones over which she totally lost it! ;-) Absolutely loves them! Turns out she wasn't buying the cheap earbuds because she preferred the type or style, but because that's what she could afford. She had only her iPhone and Samsung tablet, but while they weren't too bad in a pinch for videos or movies, their on board 'speaker' systems just weren't capable of reproducing the sort of clean, clear, accurate, full-range and high fidelity stereo sound necessary for music! For that, external speakers or headphones are necessary, and the better the headphones or speakers, the better the music sounds! While nowhere near ideal, the dirt cheap earplugs were better than nothing, not to mention the best she could afford and still pay the bills and feed the family! Now though, not only can she once again enjoy clean, clear, high fidelity music on demand and rock the house with other music lovers, she can instead plug in her new Koss headphones and enjoy music sounding every bit as good or better when all alone or if she just doesn't want to disturb anyone else. The headphones also turned her phone and tablet into the wonderfully portable, full range, high-fi music devices they were designed to be -- great sounding music anywhere! Obviously, my sister is enjoying having great tunes again, but the thing she raves about the most is how much better the new headphones sound than the cheap earbuds to which she'd grown accustomed! She goes on about it so much and so often that eventually, I decided to try a set myself. Why not? The headphones I have honestly sound pretty mediocre, my sister is crazy about 'em, they're ssuper affordable, they sell very well online, they have an overwhelmingly positive history of 4 star and higher reviews and Amazon customer service has my back if I don't like them. I can't lose. ;-) I'm very glad I bought a set for myself. The sound quality is great: clean, clear and uncolored, with accurate, tight bass and a high end that won't grate on your last nerve. If it was recorded, that's what you'll hear. They easily ⁷knock the socks off the more than twice as expensive headset I was using, and the light weight makes them much more comfortable as well. You can just about forget you have them on when you're communing with your muse. ;-) At this price, you can't go wrong! Based on other headsets I've tried over the years, I seriously doubt you could find anything as good for less than a hundred bucks, and that probably is pushing it. Buying them was a no-brainer! ;-) I've never been a huge fan of headphones, but it's a piece of kit that is needed occasionally. So while these Koss headphones accurately and adequately reproduce the music I enjoy, I'm sure they're not perfect. Certainly they are going to come nowhere near the performance level of the best and most expensive headphones out there, whatever those might be, but they're nowhere near the cost either. I happen to be very picky about what the music I love sounds like when it reaches my ears. It took more than five decades of progressively better and yes, more expensive, equipment to finally make my stereo sound "right," but I am completely happy with my fifty dollar Koss Porta vPro headphones. If you have any complaints at all about the headset you're now using, but don't have three hundred plus dollars handy to replace them, this might just be the best fifty bucks you'll ever spend. Great uncolored sound, comfort and affordability makes recommending these easy. Excellent product!

Excellent sound & good quality materials workmanship

kultowe słuchawki oferują rewelacyjną jakość dźwięku ,Kossy docenią też osoby noszące okulary, znajduje się dużo miejsca na oprawki ,brzmienie jest takie, jakiego oczekiwałem po słuchawkach w tym stylu – mocne, z wycofanym górnym skrajem pasma i ogromną ilością basu polecam :]
