Porta Pro On Ear Headphones with Case, Black/Silver | Collapsible Design, Soft Case Included, Audiophile

I’m in love with this headphone. I have other 5 headset this is one of my favourite. Looks cool as well. Recommended

My Koss Porta Pro stopped working before 1 year from the date of the purchase. But, Amazon.ae said it was not covered by a warranty in the UAE. That information (no warranty in UAE) is not mentioned on Amazon.ae's page of this product.

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.

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 :]

久々にリピート買い。ヘッドフォンは何十と使っているが、リピート買いしたのはこれだけかな。数年ぶりに買ったが今回も改めて良さを思い知った(笑)高音の伸びが無いのが唯一の欠点だがそれでも別に音が変なわけではなく僅かにくぐもった感じなだけ、ハイレゾ向きではないが、十分に音は良いというか、押出の強さには何というか独特の魅力がある。このサイズ感しかもオープンエアでの低音の出方は相変わらず俊逸。唯一自分で気になるのはコードが両出しな点。これが片出しだったらパーフェクト。
