another solid Koss phone Feb 21, 2005
By dinosauract
"dinosauract"
The KSC-75 is the latest edition of the popular and good-performing Koss KSC series. All of these models, the 35, 50, 55 and now 75 are based on the same 60-ohm drivers (also used in the Porta-Pro and KTX-Pro phones). The original model, the 35, is regarded as the standard by which all cheap, portable headphones are compared. The original 35 was a black, clip-on model, built to be very shallow and to fit closely on the ears. It was a fairly nasty-looking, uncomfortable piece, and frequently had problems with its thin foam padding tearing. It was updated to the 50 and 55 models, more "modern" looking silver clip-ons and behind-the-head models. The problem with these was they were significantly heavier, and didn't fit so snugly to the ears. Thus, even though the drivers were the same, the sound suffered a bit because of the loose fit.
The 75 moves a bit closer to the original 35. It is a shallower phone, although still not quite as much so as the 35. It does tend to fit snugly to the ear, which helps make the sound a bit fuller. They are nice and light and are very comfortable. The clip is a different design, it doesn't snap into place like the orignal 35 or hinge like the 50. It simply bends around the ear, leading to two problems with this design. The durability of the thin guage wire could be a problem. Secondly, the headphone cup tends to snap off of the clip when fitting the headphone to the ear. It simply snaps back into place again, but its a nuisance. Once properly placed, which takes a little practice, the sound is typical Koss KSC. The sound is pleasant and full, reasonably detailed and transparent. There is roll-off at both frequency extremes, although this can easily be corrected if your player has an equalizer. Even without equalization, though, the sound is quite good. Despite the 60-ohm rating, the 75's are reasonably easy for low power portables to drive. On an absolute scale or compared to the better $50 phones, such as the Sennheiser HD-497, the Koss KSC-75's don't stand out, but for a price of less than $15, these are outstanding. They easily trump any of the included phones or buds with portable players and are easy to transport, due to their light weight and small size. Another excellent, cheap Koss phone.
Update: With more use, I've become more favorably impressed with this phone. Its sound seems to have opened up with more break in. It now is very transparent with a rich, deailed sound - unbelievable for this price range. After a few uses, one gets the earclips adjusted properly to where they go on almost instantly and stay put and are very comforatble. This should minimize the amount of adjustment needed and prolong the life of the clip. Still, the headphone cups occasionally snap off of the clips even during normal handling. But in all, these are an incredible bargain. I would now rate these a five star phone.

 Legendary headphone value doesn't disappoint Jul 08, 2006
By tomjonesrocks
Others have hailed these headphones' "bang for buck" value, and they are not wrong. Inexplicably, 90% of the headphones on amazon.com seem to have 4-star ratings (which can make it difficult to choose, and is hard to understand as the lions' share of consumer-grade headphones are *terrible*), but these are actually the real deal. These literally famous headphones are unquestionably the best sounding thing you can buy for this money. In truth, they are not *quite* as good as the KSC-35s they replaced (which had a bit more bass and were slightly more expensive), but KSC-75s really sound *incredibly* good for the money. Seriously.
You can pick the looks apart or the clip mechanism if this type of headphone isn't your cup of tea--but if you're evaluating raw sound it's *amazing* how good these sound for the price. So for what these cost, stop shopping and just buy these right now.
KSC-75 is the budget headphone king.

A no brainer for the price. Get them. Jun 16, 2005
By Birru
Getting an iPod is what finally made me look into spending money on decent earphones. I first tried the Sony EX71 because friends said good things, and well, they were white. And they definitely sounded better than the stock Apple earbuds. More (but not necessarily better bass), better midrange, and the nice bonus of some sound insulation. I was satisfied.
As a consequence, I ended up doing more headphone listening at home too (apartment+subwoofer+late night=eviction), so I did some research looking for entry level performance headphones for home use. I ended up getting Alessandro Music Series One headphones (basically a Grado SR125 with mellower highs - also great headphones). The Alessandros were a revelation, as my first serious headphones. The Sony EX71 suddenly became a joke.
Well, after much research, one name kept coming up when it came to nice, cheap portable headphones: Koss. Many models were recommended: KSC35, KSC50, KSC75, PortaPro. I settled on the KSC75 as they're small clip-ons, and they were supposed to have a nice adjustable fit, in addition to fitting securely. I was skeptical though, as they were less than one third what I paid for my Sonys.
The KSC75 looks cheap. I wasn't impressed. But I have an open mind, so I gave them a listen. These suckers can rock! They deliver a really full sound, surprising for the size and price. They absolutely trounce the Apple earbuds and my old Sonys. And not by a narrow margin. The bass is impressive, and commendably tight. The midrange has real body to it. And the highs sound pleasing too. They also improve with a headphone amp, so they even have a little room to grow. I can't imagine anything under $50 sounding better. They don't really have any serious sonic faults in the $50 and under range. Considering the ludicrously low price Amazon is selling them for, nobody in their right mind should have any issue with the way the KSC75 performs. They are a noble backup to my Alessandros.
The KSC75 passed my running test. They fit well, they're easily adjusted, and they're secure. They're also quite comfortable. I also can hear enough around me that I'm aware of traffic.
Negatives: These headphones do not offer any isolation, so if you need that, consider Shure or Etymotic. If you're concerned about style, these also may not suit you. It's like you have little, silver UFOs clipped to your ears. Personally, I'm glad they're not available in "mug me white."

 Great Sound for the cost but not well-designed for the long haul Dec 06, 2006
By Jason E. Luba
The Koss KSC75 are a comfortable and versatile set of portable supra-aural (on the ear) headphones (or "cans" as audiophiles call them). They use the same transceivers, have the same Ohm impedence level and some of the other features that the Koss PortaPro offers but they are lighter weight and seem to be designed for the "on the go" lifestyle. (I have reviewed the PortaPro cans; you might want to check out my review of them as I gave them five stars. They are still going strong.) At first listen, the KSC75 sound as good as their five star cousins, the PortaPros BUT BEWARE. I have two sets now that I have to send back to Koss for replacement. Thankfully Koss does offer a lifetime warranty on these headphones but you must submit payment for shipping the replacements back to you from Koss as well as writing them a letter detailing problems, all to be included with the defective product, which you ship at your own expense.
It should be noted that I do not listen to bass heavy music but rather my primary musical choices are what I call the "three C's and one B," which is Christian, Classical, Country and audioBooks. I do not use loud volumes or sub-par products with whatever set of cans I use. But with both sets of the Koss KSC75, at least one transceiver (Left on both sets and Right on one set) began to produce distortions such as warbling, reverb and echo within a week! It would seem that using the superior quality transceivers of the PortaPro model in a set of clip-ons with a lot of plastic is not a well-thought out design.
I've noticed that these headphones have decreased in price since I purchased them. I believe people are starting to catch on to their draw backs. If you have found yourself in the sad position of getting a defective set as I did and can return it for a full refund, I encourage you strongly to do so. If you liked the sound quality (and I do), I would suggest purchasing the Koss PortaPro model. They are compact, fit in a small pouch (included) and you can literally fall asleep in them. They don't slip off during workouts either. Both sets are "Open" which simply means that if the volume is up to high, there will be sound leakage. But the PortaPro actually leaks significantly less than some other portable cans I use but are sturdy, reliable and comfortable. If you have a pair of the Koss KSC75 headphones and there hasn't been a defect, I honestly can say that you are a lucky one! I like the feel, the sound and that I can even wear these with my glasses though the ear pieces are fixed but they keep breaking down. I was lucky that they broke down while Amazon guaranteed them so I could get replacements but those have broken down as well.
In conclusion, I recommend them to you with a warning that you may find yourself having to replace them (perhaps more than once as I have done) through Amazon or wherever you purchase them during their free replacement/refund time frame or you might just have to pay more money to Koss to send you another pair that might have the same problems. The KSC75 is a "fair" buy for the cost but if you want to stick with Koss and like the sound, the PortaPro is better and you are very unlikely to have any difficulties with them. If you really need a pair of clip-on portable headphones, I highly recommend the Sony MDR-Q22LP headphones. (Please feel free to check out my review of these portable headphones as well.) Thanks and good listening!

Good sound on the cheap! Nov 30, 2005
By J. Thomas
"jimmyjames8"
These clip ons, which they aren't, don't sound anything like the Porta Pros or Sporta Pros to these ears. Those fart cannons have way too much bass emphasis for me. These little wonders slip on over the ear with the "clips" acting like the ear pieces on a pair of eye glasses. They have a "bright" crisp sound and do well with rock and guitar oriented music. They sound closer to the Sennheiser PX100's but the KSC75's are much brighter and crisper sounding. The PX100's are more neutral and balanced sounding but cost $40-$50 and have recently undergone a face lift with possible subsequent changes to the sound. The KSC75's are a no brainer for $15 to $20. You cannot do better!
