Product Description
These clip-on headphones are great for those on the go: collapsible, lightweight and versatile.
The Koss KSC75 headphones will add extra musical depth to your portable player. The titanium-coated high-quality drivers deliver a great frequency response with excellent reproduction across the range from bass to treble to ensure a rich, accurate sound.
The clip round the ear design and sportclip will endear them to those who like to exercise while the sponge ear cushions and the fact that the headphones can be easily folded away when not in use will endear them to everyone else.

I have quite a few sets of headphones, ranging from the stock ipod buds through to a set of Bang & Olufsen Form 2s. Each gives a different sound and has its own advnatages and disadvantages in use, all relative to how much they cost.
These Koss headphones are amazing. They clip on really comfortably and securely behind each ear with a solicone-covered metal clip like glasses have, which is adjustable and comfortable.
The sound is really really good. Absolutely unbelievable for the price. We're talking about a clean and deep bass which really surprised me, rich and crisp midranges and clear treble that never turns to hiss - i couldn't believe my ears. Good and loud, too.
The cord is a sensible length for ipod use but an extension is available should you need them for home use.
All backed by a no-quibble lifetime warranty.! All in all, a revelation for this much money.
In many ways, they're better than my B&Os (they certainly give slightly more rolling bass lines and more defined lower-mid range) and they completely and utterly embarrass ipod buds (which, for the record. aren't nearly as bad as most OEM buds)
All in all, they can't be recommended highly enough - i'd have been happy if i'd paid more for them.

I bought these headphones to replace the earbuds that came with my iriver h10 (sennheiser mx400's).
The most obvious difference between the two is that the sennheisers, and all other stock phones that come with mp3 players, are ear buds, where as the koss ksc75's go over the ear. So, to compare
Sounds.
For the price you will struggle to beat the quality. In fact you will struggle to beat it if you pay 3 times as much. Excellent for anyone other than a true audiophile, and far and away better than the ear buds.
Looks.
I like how they look anywhere but when I am wearing them. There is no way to get around the fact that you look like a bit of prat with them on. Personaly I think they make you look a bit like shrek from behind.
Comfort.
Comfier than most bluetooth headsets, but not as comfy as a pair of glasses. They attach behind the ear just like a pair of glasses, but obviously weight a little more and so put slightly more pressure on your ear. Not enough to be uncomfortable, but you are aware you have them on. I have worn them for in excess of 3 hours without a break without feeling distressed.
Isolation.
Non existent. You can still hear everything going on around you, but it is dimmed down. Turn up the volume and everything else disappears. These headphones sit on your ear, they dont enclose it.
This works the other way also, everyone can hear what you are playing. Dont expect to play loud music with these headphones whilst on a plane and not get stared at by other passengers.
Misc.
Chord length is about perfect, plenty long enough to have the player in your jeans pocket, but not have the chord trailing on the floor.
Summary.
An excellent candidate for your money when replacing the stock earbuds that come with your mp3 player.

I bought these to replace a set of Panasonic aftermarket earclip phones I was using with my Creative Zen 20gb mp3 player. If memory serves, I spent more on the Panasonic 'phones than I did on thes, but the Koss phones eat my old ones for breakfast.
CDs mastered from analogue tape used to have a disclaimer on them about "revealing the limitations of the source material", and the same is true of a really good pair of headphones or speakers. Suddenly, you can hear all sorts of detail that just wasn't there before- from parts low in the mix that get obscured on lower-quality gear, down to the squeaky bass drum pedal on Pink Floyd's "Astronomy Domine"! Great bass response for what's still a fairly small set of headphones, and very controlled too- my old phones couldn't cope with The Roots' "Things Fall Apart", which is full of loud sub-bass, and would distort and "fart", but the Koss phones cope easily.
The phones stay clear and audible at lower volumes than my old ones when used on a bus or outdoors with background noise, but still allow you to "hear through" to what's happening in the real world, which might be important if you listen while you're riding a bike or walking.
For this price, this sort of quality shouldn't be allowed! Lifetime "no-questions" warranty and construction that looks pretty solid anyway give me no worries about longevity either. A purchase you won't regret.

Fantastic quality and value
I've tried a lot of earbuds and headphones around this price point and nothing has come close to the level of quality from the Koss KSC75s. Highly recommended.
