Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Koss KTXPRO1 Titanium Portable Headphones with Volume Control
Customer Review: Great Sound For The Money!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is my second pair of Koss KTXPRO1 Titanium Portable Headphones and I love them! I destroyed my first pair of seven years as I was getting off of my stationary bike and ripped the right sound cord out of the speaker!
The Titanium-coated diaphragm creates wonderful highs without sounding "tinny" and pretty decent bass. My only complaint is the ear cushion. If you use your headphones like I do (listening while walking the neighborhood or exercising at home)you should probably buy the extra three-set pack of foam cushions because you'll wear out the original cushions with regular, daily use.
I paid $13.86 here at Amazon for this latest pair and thought I was getting a good deal when I bought my original pair at $24.99!
They're also very lightweight and (in my opinion) have a much better sound range than most of those expensive, so-called "pro" earbuds.
Customer Review: Wow !!
Summary: 5 Stars
These are absolutely amazing headphones for the money. I listen to all types of music from classical opera to the old blues masters. Others have already commented on the accuracy of their bass reproduction, and throughout the audio range. I will agree and also comment on the transparency and clarity of their sound. The last thing that impressed me this much was a pair of the old AR-3ax speakers of the sixties when I first listened to them. The accuracy of their sound reproduction and clarity is amazing, and is most likely due to their use of titanium coating on the diaphrams...but whatever,it works. These are one of the great buys in the Audio World right now for the money. Just ask any manager of a Radio Shack store (which carries these)...most of them have at least two pairs of these for their personal use at home. One of them was who convinced me to try a pair....Thanx!!Customer Review: Koss improved upon Radio Shack model

The titanium headphones that let you hear maximum bass and treble was originally a Radio Shack exclusive product in the late 90's. Now Koss seems to have brought the rights, because Radio Shack doesn't sell them anymore.
I myself have been using them for quit sometime and was a little skeptical when I found out Koss was the new holder of the headphones.
Much to my surprise, not only does the headphones should good, they even sound better then the Radio Shack model. Cleaner bass, and treble equal almost perfect sound. The freq response is 15-25,000Hz. 15 means real deep bass, and 25000 means real high(but clear) treble.
These Headphones are ideal for computer use. Like many of other reviews said, the design is still 1990's and would look pretty silly on you today.
A great buy for a great price, if you plan on using it indoors.
Customer Review: Killer heaphones!

Im 15 and am extremely picky about my audio equiptment. these headphones just outdo everything else in thier price range by far... GREAT bass and well everything else. did i mention the fact that radio shack sell the exact same thing ( just in different colors) for 40 bucks!? i saw them myself. these headphones still amaze me with thier quality and power!i have a pair of 200 dollar headphones and i still use these headphones. they do really loud( as in blow your ears out) and still hold quality without distorting whatsoever. ive had them a while and have had no problems AT ALL.they are a great size and dont stick out anywhere so i can put my hat on over them without people thinking i have some sort of tumor on my head or something. take the deal! if your looking for the best headphones ever ( especialy for the extremely low cost) this is BY FAR the way to go!Customer Review: Best value by far for full highs & lows with clarity
Summary: 5 Stars
I had purchased this item from a national well known dealer under their name (made by Koss) and have used it for the last 4-5 years. After accidently breaking one of the wire connections I returned to the store who unfortunaly did not carry that model anymore. Some investigative work and browsing through Amazon & lo & behold there were the exact headphones I have lovingly used in the past.
I am a professional musician having recorded 5 CDs and very familiar with sound.
These headphones are light in weight but heavy in quality. You can crank up the volume with practically no distortion. The volumn control feature is a biggie.
Proof of my satisfaction? I purchased 2 of them in case I accidently break the wires on one of them.
I rate them 6 stars (one for good measure)
