friend Posted March 12, 2001 Share Posted March 12, 2001 Hi everyone, please help me out here. Being a college student, I cannot afford expensive headphones, so I found these two at my local TARGET store: #1: KOSS UR20 Frequency Response: 30-20,000Hz Impedance: 32 ohms Sensitivity: 97 dB SPL/1mW Cord Length: 8ft Price: $20 #2: KOSS TD61 Frequency Respone: 25-15,000Hz Impedance: 32 ohms Sensitivity: 93.5 dB SPL/1mW Cord Length: 8ft Price: $20 Which one do you think is a better buy? Is there any other headphones better than these at the same price range or (+ or - $10)? Please help me out!!! Thank you!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rol1 Posted March 12, 2001 Share Posted March 12, 2001 Keep up with Radio Shack, every few months they sell their $39 headphones for $19. These are titanium dome, neomybsumthin magnets, ect... They have very good volume and strong bass even off my notebook's weak signal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rol1 Posted March 13, 2001 Share Posted March 13, 2001 I thought you wanted info on Koss headphones? Read on, "BTW, if you cannot find Koss headphones where you live, you can always go to Radio Shack. The Pro-45s are the SportaPros, the Pro-35 are the titanium-coated model... actually, most of the Radio Shack headphones are made by Koss. You can check this by looking at the 1/8 plug in them; it will read "Koss"." http://www.3dsoundsurge.com/ubb/Forum4/HTML/000578.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gluegun Posted March 13, 2001 Share Posted March 13, 2001 Okay, the only good, low-end headphones that I can honestly suggest are: The Koss Sportapros The Koss KSC-35's The Sennheiser MX500 (these are $20 earbuds) Okay? ------------------ "Feh."

Torin Posted March 14, 2001 Share Posted March 14, 2001 Sure thing dude...well, for a computer they kick butt because i can crank the bass up full and they dont distort, just solid bass. I dont like them on portable cd players because bass boost is a crappy crappy way to get bass and it trys to shoot too much for little headphones, but on my home stereo system they rock! I got an equalizer so the bass is tweaked properly, so they kick butt there too. You need to just hear them, i dont think you will be dissapointed. I've never heard anything come close to them for the price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
