Shames higher-end, higher-cost competition,

Let me just start by saying that as an audiophile, I'm biased to Koss. I bought a pair of higher-end Koss back in the early 90's (which for the time, "high-end", non-profesional meant $60), figuring that if I ever wore them out, their "lifetime warranty" would cover any problems.
Needless to say, some 19 years later, I now own at least four pair of Koss headphones because I have never ever been let down. Case in point-- I needed a pair of comfortable earbuds for an upcoming trip. I ran to the local store, picked up a pair of competitor's brands based on their "simulated surround" capability. Needless to say, I was thoroughly disappointed. In desperation, I hunted around at stores looking for a pair of Koss earbuds. This wasn't originally the pair I sought (I was looking for Keb24's), but I knew as a second choice, the Keb20DVD was more than adequate-- at least so I hoped.
Why I ever doubted this is beyond me. For a cheaper alternative, the Keb20 offer incredible...Read more

very comfortable, decent sound for the very low cost. Helps if you can apply an equalization curve. Very good low end. Good value for $25, delivered!
LOVE these earbuds. Sound is amazing after 3 years of heavy use :D,

I usually hate using earbuds because, for whatever reason, they would never stay in my ears. Thankfully, I found the Koss earbuds at an FYE store. They are that amazing that I felt I had to write a review on here about them :P. And I'm very critical of any product I use. These type of buds are made to fit comfortably in your ear. My earphones came with 3 different size rubber... fitter... things. Idk what else to call them, lol. Anyway- they are VERY comfortable in my ear and the sound is incredible for the price. I bought them over 3 years ago too and have used them heavily every day since. The sound is STILL crisp and perfect to this day. I'm actually using them as we speak :). But yeah, basically, IF and when these headphones need to be replaced, I'll be buying a Koss product again. Love it!
