Pros: Great sound, compact size, actually stay in your ear, even when running.
Cons: Take a little getting used to, but once you do you'll love them.
Review: Great little earbuds. Sound better than anything you can get for less than $50, bar none. Highly recommended for anyone who wants great sound without spending a small ...
Pros: No outside noise to deal with and inexpensive
Cons: Can't hear voices either and static discharge-prone
The Bottom Line: Not too expensive, gets rid of all outside noise, solid sound. Could use more thoughtful construction. Not a good option if you are often pulling your headphones on and off
Review: I have owned two pair of these headphones over the last three years. As a subway train rider in Chicago, I found them excellent for blocking out all that train noise. Of course, in less noisy settings, they do too good of a job, as you often cannot hear ...
Cons: Uncomfortable for long wear, pads aren't that robust.
The Bottom Line: These are a great choice if you are getting earbuds, the sound and isolation is unmatched in that category.
Review: These are fantastic headphones for the price. They are the only ear buds I have ever gotten good bass from. The Koss Sparkplugs are in-ear earbuds: a malleable foam pad sits inside your ear like an ear plug. The cone sits just outside the pad and is ...
Pros: Good sound quality, in-ear type, inexpensive for the model
Cons: Problems with the expanding foam
The Bottom Line: Suggested if you are listening to music in noisy places or have usability issues with standard hearphones. Sometimes the ear canal gets sore.
Review: I am the owner of a iPod Nano. In more than one occasion I felt like the headphones were far from perfection. Their quality is good but the shape makes them fall out of the ear far too often. Also it is impossibile to position them correctly while ...
Review: I had better defend these ear plugs. Giving them a terrible rating is not fair to Koss. These are definetly worth the money. Koss headphones have always been a bargain. I find no problem with these. If I had paid $35.00 or so for these then I ...
Pros: Muffles outside noise, doesn't let sound leak out
Cons: Foam slow to expand in cold weather
Review: My dad gave me these when I was complaining about being able to hear other noise over my music. I don't like to be one of those people who shares their music with everyone else, so I tried these out. The foam works really well in muffling outside noise ...
Review: I bought my first pair about two years ago and I love them so much that I'm buying another pair as I use them just about every day. I commute to work and on the days I don't drive I am listening to my audio books. I recommend them to all who need or ...
Pros: Great sound, with Etymotic or Shure tips.
Great company warranty
Good value
Cons: Thin wiring.
Easily tangeled.
Review: I saw on Ebay that several companies sell these earbud headphones with Etymotic tips. I work in industrial safety and am familiar with hearing protection. The tips that come with the Spark Plugs, dense foam, are the type that are very effective at ...
Pros: Cheap, light, loook stylish, good noise insulation, good sound with ports covered, efficient
Cons: Cumbersome to put on, need ports covered to sound better, my ears get tired quick
The Bottom Line: I highly recommend the Koss SparkPlug as a cost-effective alternative to noise-cancelling headphones. Make sure you are ready to do minimal DIY with clear...
Review: The headphones that come with various MP3 players, generally speaking, are pretty poor. Some are very poor, some are borderline acceptable. The headphones that ship with various i
Pods
are generally acceptable, but you ...
Cons: You have to stick them IN your ears. Treble is lacking. Cheap foam around canula
The Bottom Line: They're not too expensive, and they're above average. Though their sound leaves some to be desired. Cheap, fashionable(ish) noise filtering make these worth a buy for a low enough price.
Review: I wanted headphones that would drown out the oceans of noise I run into in the hallways, subways, storeways and everywhere-elseways I walk through while trying to enjoy the music on my iPod. When youre surrounded by noise, a simple pair of headphones ...
