| msavad's Full Review: Koss TD-80 Consumer Headphones |
I bought this product as a better headphone for my Mptrip. Mainly I got it through the reviews from this place. A few people said it pinched their ears, but I got it anyway.
The sound is pretty good. The bass is pretty rich. I found that wind instruments and drums sound best on this unit. I work in a noisy shop, and alot of the sound was hard to hear. Plus the sound wasn't as "full" as it could be. It doesn't have enough sound range and alot of my songs didn't have the emphasis, that I wanted. It also has trouble with low rumbling base, (duel of the fates, star wars, beginning part), you just don't hear it.
It comes with a gold plated 1/8" plus, and a 1/4" plug. The cord is the springy type, which makes it a pretty good a walk man headset.
Comfort level: This device will only be comfortable with people who have a real small head or little ears. I wore these things for a total of a week, and had to return them. Every 15 minutes I was adjusting them, it just cut off the circulation to my ears. Though I do wear glasses, which helped worsen the problem. and they also distort the outside sound, you won't even reconize your own voice!
