Koss's innovative stereophones are designed to reduce outside noise so that you can enjoy full sounding music at a lower volume. These earphones make use of an ear-cusioning material that slowly expands in your ear canal to provide a custom fit and isolate your music from outside sound. Low impedance operation makes "the Plug" easy to drive from portable playeres, and they boast an impressive frequency responce at a rock bottom price. These are quite simply the best deal available in noise reducing, low cost earphones! Less

Koss ?The Plug? Earphones: A Tragedic Saga of Failures, Part 3

by tesseract , Jun 17, 2003
Pros: Good sound isolation- but this can be dangerous in some situations.
Cons: Extremely difficult to position correctly, uncomfortable, won't stay in place, sound is too bass-heavy, muffled.
The Bottom Line: Make sure you're comfortable wearing foam earplugs for hours on end before purchasing. For extreme bass lovers only (with the mod). Tinny and weak without the mod.

Review: I have small ears set close to my head, and I've had a devil of a time finding the right earphones to wear with my MP3 player. You can't beat an earbud's ability to deliver soundwaves directly to your eardrum, but most earbud speakers are...

Mini but Mighty

by timdunn , Jun 8, 2001
Pros: Small, Loud, Great Bass, Short Cord
Cons: Annoying Mute Button, Overly Bright Treble
The Bottom Line: If you like earbuds, these are a great pair. I told at least half a dozen of my friends and co-workers about these.
This reviewer recommends this product.
Review: My introduction to The Plug came by way of a web page about The Boosteroo, an in-line headphone amplifier. The author of the web page amended the page to say that he switched over to The Plug and did not need the amplifier anymore.
