Product Description
Earclip Design / Rich, well-defined wide-range sound / For all portable players including MP3 / Titanium Sport Finish

Amazon.com Product Description
Enjoy rich, accurate sound through your portable CD or MP3 player using the Koss KSC75 on-the-go headphones. Designed for people who want a lightweight listening solution without sacrificing audio quality, the phones employ a pair of sport clips to fit neatly around each ear, thus eliminating the constraints of conventional headbands. As a result, listeners can wear the phones--which weigh a mere 1.5 ounces--without disturbing their carefully coifed hairdos. When not in use, the headphones store compactly in a backpack or purse without taking up unnecessary space. Meanwhile, the phones produce terrific sound through their titanium-coated high-polymer drivers, which are built for maximum precision, as are the bass-boosting neodymium iron boron magnets. Their combined efforts generate a noteworthy 15 Hz to 25 kHz frequency response. Additional features include oxygen-free copper voice coils within the cord that protect the signal clarity; a straight, dual-entry 4-foot cable; and a 3.5 mm plug.

What's in the Box
KSC75 headphones, 4-foot cable, user's manual.

5 out of 5 stars Extremely good!   November 18, 2008
S. Moraru (NC, US)
First - the price. Got them for $5, which is an exceptional price anyhow. Then, the quality. One word to describe - EXTRAVAGANZA! LOVE THEM!!! If you'll be lucky enough to get them for $5 - don't think any longer, grab 'em and RUN, RUN!!! :)


4 out of 5 stars good sound, interesting clip design   November 15, 2008
book reader (Seattle)
I bought these headphones because of all the hype on the forums and the raving reviews. They ARE pretty nice.

Pros
Good sound
Tweak-able clips can result in great fit

Cons
Clips can fall off with just a little force
Fit takes a little getting used to

Clips & fit
These clips are on a flexible joint to fit different ears. They're also bendable and so you can tweak them until they fit your ears well (never perfect). But many times while I was tweaking my clip (the left one especially) it falls off. They're easy to put back on though.



5 out of 5 stars great headphones   October 31, 2008

I use these for my GPS on my motercycle and other sets where not loud enought and these work great i have not missed a turn yet!


1 out of 5 stars These Earphones Crackle!!   October 30, 2008
Moshe Medalie
This is my second pair of KSC65 Koss Stereophones. My first pair started to buzz/crackle in the right earphone. I decided to make use of the Koss lifetime warranty and send them to get replaced/repaired. In the meantime I bought another pair so as not to wait for the first to get fixed. Within one week I have the same issue as the first pair!! They have started to crackle/buzz when the heavier bass comes through. This is unacceptable.




5 out of 5 stars May very well be the best headphones in its class.   October 30, 2008

I have bought three pairs of these headphones to mod and play around with, and a few more as gifts. By far the best headphones in its price range. Much better than my stock iPod buds. Slightly open design does let a little sound leak out at higher volumes but has never been an issue for me. Couldn't be happier with my purchase. If you are an iPod owner (or any mp3 player) do yourself a favor and spend the little extra cash for much better earphones, you won't regret it.
