Koss UR-40 Headphones

 

Available for less than a measly £30, the Koss UR-40 headphones provide a reasonably-priced alternative to the frankly awful headphones you are normally presented with when you buy a new mobile phone or music player.

Improve the quality of sound coming from your iPod, with a full-size set of headphones. We take a look at six of the best models on the market.

Light weight Heavy sound.

 

Over all this product is design for the commuter in mind. I would recomend these . the Price,light weight design and sound quality make this a great buy. The open headphone design is great to have when there is an emergency. This way you can hear whats...

The Weight and size for this type of over the ear head phones are perfect for commuting. they fold in and the open webbing on top keeps your head from sweating. I compared the Sennheiser HD 555 to this model on the same mp3 player and this koss was...

Best value for money I've found.

 

I've used them for 14 hours straight without any discomfort at all.

Excellent sound quality for the price, Extremely light weight, they have a lifetime warranty so if they ever break Koss will replace them for free minus the cost of shipping

The build quality isn't the best but that's the price you pay for having them weigh just over 6 ounces ; They aren't sound canceling at all because of the open air design

Great value headphones

 

These Koss entry level headphones are great for everyday use. They are very light and provide decent sound. The sounds isn't as crisp and the bass isn't as deep as more expensive headphones, but for this price it is definitely good. The headphones are...

Not quite perfect ”

 

These headphone are okay for your regular mp3 player or your ipod for a nice connection at a low level sound, but when it comes to hooking them up to your computer for a video game or song or whatnot they are not very good. I have been using these for...
