These headphones are cheap in price but have a sound quality that rivals some of the most expensive headphones. If you are on a budget, I definitely recommend buying these!

I was looking for some headphones on a budget and these really offer some good quality for the price. Using them to monitor the mic on a video camera. Does great at blocking the outside noise.

Quality set on a budget!

Let's start by saying these headphones are amazingly comfortable. As soon as you put them on, you feel the foam adjust to your head and it sounds like your in a studio. The audio quality...Just wow. I can't get the speakers to clip or even distort. Music and sounds that used to make audio fuzzy and distorted now come in crystal clear. These headphones make even 44.1k audio sound like a beast. Construction...no complaints. You are wearing these for the audio, not the fashion. It is indeed plastic and not the thickest or strongest, so don't expect them to take the abuse some people put headphones through when they travel. Finally, the overall wow factor. You just don't need to spend more on headphones than these right here. I have used headphones from the $10 budget to the $700 budget and these are all you need. If you want the alloy coating and steel construction, then sure. Spend more. But if you plan to keep your headphones in a studio or somewhere else safe, these will make your setup feel perfect.

For this low of a price, I have not found a better sounding headphone---it destroys some headphones at 3 to 4 times its price. I play music ( hobby) and my tastes are varied--will listen to anything--love jazz/fusion/ rock/classical/electronic/world/gospel/acoustic/new age / DCI drum corps. I am running a standard laptop and an old Audioquest Dragonfly v1.0 DAC--poor man's budget stuff, nothing fancy. With this combo, depth, soundstage, instrument timbres and tonal balance are amazing at this price. CONS: semi-fragile construction--take care of them ( ! ), presently a goofy look ( consumers may want to get out the Krylon !-- my opinion--sorry, Koss ! What happened to the-- more attractive IMHO-- all black KTXPRO design?). Very satisfying sound; I continue to be impressed every time I listen. Personally, I think this is a budget audiophile classic, and I have been a fan of it for decades through its various incarnations ( even back to the Optimus Pro 35 Radio Shack days !) A MUST buy on a budget---you will not be disappointed at this price. Despite the present look ( ! ), well done, Koss !

Great studio headphones for the price. Sound is great. If your looking for a great headphones & you're on a budget. Get this headphones. You can't go wrong!! Tascam quality.

I purchased 2 sets of these headphones and was very pleased at the sound and clarity of the sound. I was on a budget so wasn't able to purchase high-end headphones but these will do the job nicely! Very happy with my purchase.

My daughter wanted wireless headphones for Christmas. I’m picky- use Bose or Apple earbuds only, but I didn’t have the budget for those this time. Well, I read reviews and settled on these, and am completely thrilled!! They are brand new so I can only speak to sound quality right now, but they are phenomenal. I asked her to let me listen and can I just say…SCORE! Great price and the sound is excellent, leaving me feeling that she is missing out on nothing with the smaller budget. I have reviewed exactly one other product in my life, but I am so thrilled! Way to go JBL! While I’m at it, I converted from other wireless speakers to jbl, because their speakers are totally superior! Gave my son one of those for Christmas this year!

Excellent headphones! Sounds are clear and crisp. Would recommend to someone that's on a budget and cannot afford high end headphones.
