Koss KSC75 Portable On-Ear Clip Headphones, Retro Style, Ultra Lightweight, Silver and Black

Gamer here, these are god-tier. Had them 5 months now and they're amazing.Only issue I had was that it took a LOT of bending and messing around with the ear clips to find the sweet spot where they're perfectly comfortable. They were actually very painful to wear before I found the best bend. Also, I would not bring these out of an office setting; they seem too flimsy for fitness, travel, etc., and they have a little sound bleed, so people close to you may hear loud playback.That being said, the sound quality is unbelievably good for the dirt cheap price--They sound considerably better than all of my $50-$200 headsets. The ear clips are very comfortable (when bent correctly) & completely prevent headset dent. You can also take off the ear pads and hand wash them so they will never accumulate a scent.They're $20, but they're deceptively good. Give them a try, you will not regret it.!!! EDIT: January 18th, 2025, the wire to the left headphone has broke somewhere and there is now only audio in my right ear. I took them to the gym a few times but found that they'd fall off my ears if I am not upright, such as during the benchpress, but I was always generally very careful with them. I could probably fix them but I do not have a soldering gun. So they took 15 months to break. For $20, that's some respectable value. I will now buy another pair. 8)

I bought these earphones for working out only, so most of this review is based on my experience with them working out. Naturally i understand there are some really great earphones on the market that can make you think that your in the same room at the musician. Those earphones are not going to be the ones that your going to work out with. There are some people out there that pay a hundred dollars for earphones just to work out in! But why when you can spend less then 15$ on these nice little Koss earphones. For most people who dont have money to burn i recommend these little guys. Like i said they are less than 15$ and they have very impressive sound quality for such a good less expensive earphone. They are also comfortable as well with a nice semi soft rubber sleeve on the plastic loop that goes around the top of you ear. The earphones do a really good job of staying right were you put them no matter what you do as well. So comfort, sound quality, and price are the main focal point of these earphones. But there are some draw backs that are not deal breakers in any way but must be mentioned. First the earpads are your typical foam cushions. Those do get sweaty especially if you sweat alot. Ive seen some out in the market that are a type of really soft rubber that helps with the sweat but i dont know how weird that would feel having wet rubber on your ears. At the same time i know how wet foam feels on the ears and it feels a little wierd too. I guess i would rather have the foam though because it adds the comfort that is important to me and koss makes 3 packs of foam ear replacements for only about 3$ so its no big deal. I just worry that one day the sweat may ruin one of the earphones, but thats why 15$ is a better investment in earphones when you work out. Next, this is me kind of nit picking but sony has a 40$ pair of new earphones for working out that has what they call an extension for the earphones. In other words if you have you mp3 player in an armband and you put these earphones on...you can disconnect the extension which is in the middle of the cord connected to the earphones and you'll have another 3.5mm plug there that can go into your armband. While at the same time the cord is very short and perfect for working out with an armband. If these Koss had that i would never buy another pair for working out. But they do not and i have to wrap the cord about the mp3 player. If your really big on looks then i dont know how you will like these koss. They are not really stream line so when you put them on your ears they do come out a little. Looks like the top of a hamburger bun on the side of your ear just not as big. Dont get me wrong they are light so you wont feel them and really who is going to care what they look like when they are covered in sweat. One last thing...Koss offers a lifetime warranty on these little babies but i think that is standard on all there equipment. Just a little perk i wanted to add. So overall i really like these earphones after using now for about three weeks. So dont be worried about getting these, they will be great for everyday casual use and working out if that is what your looking for. But if you feel that you need the Best looking, sounding, smallest, and most expensive earphones on the market to work out in...then your not hitting the gym hard enough cupcake. Go back to your starbucks and enjoy!

I have bought so many headphone brand wired/wireless. Ranging from 20$ to 300$. From at least 20 headphones, this is the best one. Only if we are talking about the audio. They are not that comfortable, feel cheap, cable is short and they are easy to break. Also volume is kind of low on my pc. I use a external software to help with that.Audio. 10/10Comfortable. 6/10Durability. 3/10Price. 10/10My story with them...I have bought at least 5 pairs of them, they sound amazing. I enjoy listening to good audio on music and movies. Can't compete with the price, the only problem is that they just randomly die from 1 ear. They usually last me 4 months, I first thought I was the problem and I didn't take care of them well enough but I then bought another pair and the same thing happened then bought another pair as a gift for my brother and he also had the same problem. A few months later, I bought 2 more pairs and you guessed it. They just work from 1 side. I still have them, I was hoping to be able to fix them, but I found out that the cable was not the problem. It was the speaker that died, so I couldn't do anything. I have tried getting 2 speakers different cables and fixing them but failed. I gave up and bought the another model Porta pro which is 40$. They sound really good, and are still working. I also bought a bluetooth adapter, because the cable is really short in my opinion.
