5.0 out of 5 stars Best for the money., May 13, 2005
This review is from: Koss SPARKPLUG - Stereo In Ear Ear Plugs (Electronics)
Being somewhat of an audiophile, I went researching for a good pair of headphones. I was looking at the product lines from Sennheiser, Beyerdynamic, Grado, Shure, and Etymotic.

I considered what I wanted these headphones for and it was to study in places like starbucks or barnes and nobles. So naturally, I decided on sound isolating headphones. This left me with either closed full-size over the ear headphones or earbuds. If you haven't seen them, full-size headphones are huge! They pretty much cover the entire sides of your head, we're talking Princess Leah hair buns (star wars). Besides that, the higher quality headphones require an additional portable amplifier to sound good because most portable devices aren't powerful enough to drive them.

Now I focused on earbuds. After reading review upon review about Shure and Etymotic, I would always come across reference to Koss "The Plug" and Sony's isolating earbuds (forgot the model) from an audio forum...Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Very happy with these in-ear phones, February 3, 2006

This review is from: Koss SPARKPLUG - Stereo In Ear Ear Plugs (Electronics)
The ear buds that come with the iPod won't stay in my ears and those little foam slip covers always come off and they just generally drive me crazy. So I normally use good over-the-ear headphones. But I needed some in-ear phones to wear at certain times. These Koss ear phones have been great, and you could buy 10 pairs or more for the price of some others!

I'm not an extreme audiophile, but I do demand good clean sound. I like medium-strong bass (but not as much as many people), but it has to be clean and not muddy and not overpower the rest of the frequencies. The bass in these Koss plugs might be just a bit too much, but certainly not enough that I'm going to bother trying to modify them with straws, duct tape, WD-40, and whatever. You can adjust the position of the phones in your ear to reduce the bass, too. Overall, the sound is quite good, but not as clear and bright as I would expect from very expensive phones.

Someone said they look funny in...Read more

3.0 out of 5 stars Good enough for $12, May 11, 2007

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Koss SPARKPLUG - Stereo In Ear Ear Plugs (Electronics)
I don't demand the utmost in sound fidelity, but like so many others have commented I also found the bass on these earplugs to be so overwhelming that it drowns out all other frequencies. I put tape over the back of the plugs, and that helped muffle the bass enough that I can now hear the higher frequencies.

Still, these are cheap earplugs, so don't expect top sound quality. I find that the foam tips on these earplugs fit my ears better than a pair of more expensive Sony earplugs that take those replaceable foam covers. Granted, the sound quality is less than those higher-priced earplugs, but I can wear these Koss earplugs for far longer in comfort.
