Do you think that's excessive? (*blush*) The Porta Pro also sucks. ;)

I usually either skip these, or insert a snarky comment along. Regarding Koss, I think I agree. The only successful model I can think of quickly right now is the Porta Pro, and this is a low-budget phone. Which pair of Sennheisers do you own?

Mylar diaphragms for a frequency response of up to 25,000? Sure, why not. I'll let my bats have a go at these cans. I used to have a Koss in the 70s and 80s which was great - and I wore it out until it literally fell apart - but I haven't had one single more than decent one on my ears since. I wish they would stop coming up with cool stuff and actually produce something that can really compete with Beyer, Sennheiser and the like. Early opinions I heard around the shops here were just negative, across the board. Also, I've heard that they are not supposed to be suitable for longer listening sessions because of the (closed) concept ... too tight. Not that I'm lookin g for a new pair. My Sennheisers will do for another decade or two. Looks cool.
