Great introduction to in-ear monitors [Posted on 2008-09-07]
I've been using Koss headphones for decades and the Plug continues to deliver that traditional "Koss" sound. The Plug is an inexpensive way to try get into the "in-ear" monitor area of headphones. They are comfortable to wear and deliver killer bass along with great mids and highs. I bought these for my son because he won't use anything else, including a pair of $400 Shure monitors I offered him. Give 'em a try. For $10, you can't go wrong.
One complaint though. Koss products are almost impossible to buy in Canada. Sure would like to see them establish a retail presence here again.
This is my second pair and the left ear plug goes out. Beware! [Posted on 2008-09-14]
I have bought these before and had the left ear plug go out after 5 months. Koss has a lifetime replacement guarantee so i returned them and after 7 months with my new ones the same thing happened. For the price its not bad but be warned you get what you pay for.
quality review [Posted on 2008-09-20]
First off the product was not very expensive so i knew what i was paying for. The sound quality was just fine for what i am using them for, but they are not very comfortable. other than that i have no complaints.
Best for the money, and then some. [Posted on 2008-10-09]
I've compared these ear buds to Shure e2c's, ($50-60), and Creative Zen Auravana's, ($60-100), and found them better than the Shure's and almost as good as the Auravana's in certain ways, and better in other ways, (the bass on the Auravana's is too thumping, and cable noise is worse than the Koss). They're just plain astounding - especially for the money. If you want to buy something that beats all three, get the Creative EP-830's. Incredible sound that just barely beats these little Koss buds - but they're $50. For the money, the Koss can't be beat, period.
Good sound quality, very comfortable, very affordable... what more do you want? [Posted on 2008-10-11]
If you can get past the Frankenstein look when you have these things plugged into your ears, you will love these. They're actually very comfortable when you put them in because of the memory foam style pads. If you have a smaller earhole like mine that don't hold the typical hard plastic style earplugs all that well, these are the ones you want to get. I've fallen asleep with these on plenty of times they were so comfortable, & not once did I have the soreness that I get in my ear that I get with some other style earplugs. Sound quality is nice, especially the bass which is not too thumping but nice & crisp, which is the way I like it. Don't expect audiophile quality sound but for the price you will be more than happy with these.
