agreed

No offence, but the "ksc-75" hype here is even worse than head-fi...

well, look at it this way, compared to my old seinheisser PMX-60's which i spent 120 on, these are MUCH better, I haven't had the opportunity to play around with other headphones so I can't really say much about how headphones X is better than Headphones Y. You call it hype, I call it a revealtion

dino,
well, it doesnt mean its mono when i said it has zero soundstage...
since you haf listen to HP890, I tot u would haf the same impression...
when u listen to 890, it sound like a hall or something... sounds doesnt play inside your head... but ksc75 is playing directly between the ears... ouch....

seta,
it depends on what you are comparing to...
if you had a full headphone b4, then u will have difference opinion...

kapitan, now i got what u mean ...wif the Hall sound stage description.

And maybe u are just introducing into bright sound?!

Surely over-hype oso got lar before most of us get this Koss.
Let's say this is the best budget bright phone u r not gonna miss then..
hee...

Dun get what u mean... are u trying to say this is my first bright headphone? Dont u think HP890 is bright too?

Anyway, BRIGHT, THIN, HARSH are different....
HP890 is somewhat bright... but KSC75 is harsh esp with the volume crank up... if moderate level, consider okay la but sounds the same, thin.....

I agree that it's over-hyped
But i'll have to disagree if you're saying that purely based on the fact that u dont like them that much
Try all the good headphones out there, there's bound to be some that u dont like
That doesnt mean that those other ppl who told u they're good were over-hyping them, just that it isnt your cup of tea

you are comparing a 70 dollar phone to a 180dollar phone and call it rubbish I can always take my more superior phones and compare it to the 890/497 and call it $h!t

the phone is not overhyped if you take into consideration of the amount of true rubbish phones in the market at around or higher than its price. IF the ksc75 is rubbish, I'd have to say that the ex71, she9500, xd200, and many othes phones are the deepest sh1t in the rubbish dump.

If you listen to very loud volumes on the god, I'd recommend the senn px100 instead. as a matter of fact, I can't use the PX100 at low volumes and I also can't use the ksc75 at the same volume as px100.

I said it's a crap IF I've bought one for RM110... why? I bought HP890 for RM109... GOT it?? Thats why I said its still okay when you buy one for RM70...

you cannot rule out something just because YOU bought the 890 at a good price. GOT it?

If u got something even better, say a HD650 @ RM100, dont go around telling ppl all other RM100 phones are crap la
If u were buying them now, how much would they cost u?

I think the EX71 & 9500 is hyped simply cause they're the cheapest canalphones available locally and from a "famous" brand
Ppl would think "It's a Sony/Philips, it's gotta be good!"
Plus lack of experience with other stuff of course

MMhmm...THe she 9500 is indeed overhyped. It's only good coz it's canalphones...and its cheap And it's slightly more portable coz form factor-wise, it's an earphone After being used to bass-heavy headphones, I don't understand the hyped bass of the she9500 But then I'm comparing a headphone to a canalphone

For the price, the ksc75 definitely owns the she9500. Using both now.

It also can b the other way around...
Less critical about it bcos you bought it cheap...

Anyway, most important aspect still remain with user la...
If he's happy with it, its already worth it...
I still use it when I need mobility... just that I wont use it at home lor...
Not good enough to satisfy me...

as for why I rate it this or that, just my own preference ma...
mayb i read too blardy good to believe reviews here that make my expectation too high... some said 5X better ABC, some said better clarity n vocal than ABC..

None i found is true... except for the BASS level... *sigh*
And on top of that, I just cant take its harsh sound bcos im using it with my santa cruz soundcard... santa cruz are known to have mellow sound and yet its still quite harsh... if use with AV710, dont want to imagine...

haih , to think this was a FAN CLUB .....

anyways , dont like it ? what you want us to do ? fix it for you ? you are whining about it as if your life is going to end

since you dontl ike it , go ahead and sell it , then get something that suits your tastes , why bother suffering with something that hurts your ears ?

Like you can do anything about it....

Cheers up guys. He is just sharing thoughts.
(HP890 sounds nicer than Grado SR60. And it is cheaper, *again*.)

see this Fan base had registered this "Koss Happy Face" logo liao.

^ _ ^ ---->happy user!

>_< ---->unhappy user!

Kapitan can start a new base.. i oso see quite a few dun like Koss kcs75.
U r not the only one.
Can sell me koss kcs 75 at RM7.50 ?!

i would be glad to buy from u!.hehe

You obviously didnt understand what was trying to be told to u

5X better than ABC, so have u tried that ABC that was talked about by those users?
And again as i've said, just cause u didnt like it doesnt make it bad
They're too harsh for you?
I bet there are many over-RM1000 phones that are even more harsh
Would u go around telling ppl "My RM109 HP890 is better than your RM1000++ SR325!"

FINE!!

My expectation is too high... OK?
*sigh*

if those who had read too much review about them and had too high of an expectation and now feels disappointed about it, I'm really sorry for you. I hope you guys take reviews with a grain of salt, if you buy things mainly becasue of reviews...you're gonna end up with lots of disappointment because different people have different ears. This was not meant to be a "must buy" item, it is you guys yourself who wanted to jump onto the band wagon, nobody forced you...as for why...perhaps you guys read too much review? I bought it becasue I thought it sounded very good when I tried it and it was dirt cheap..so why not?

If you don't like the phone, sell it off, there'd be lots of people willing to grab it off your hands....after all, there are only a minority of people who dislike them and I found them to be those who prefer warmer sound. If I don't like something, I'd just sell it off...complaining about how bad it sounds to you when there are much more worst things out there is imho...fruitless.

btw kapitan, attitude like that is not called for. I presume you are still a high schooler.

Ouch.

Well a word about reviews since we're at it. I find it better to read all the bad reviews first. At least that way, you'll know what shit to expect. Like before I got my zen micro. And before I got my 20gig 4th Gen. I knew what to expect that way. And I also knew how good it could be. Reading only the postive review is perhaps the fastest way to burn a hole in your pocket. You'll be lucky if you got the same taste as the reviewer...Or if you got a the same good set. But if not...Then you'd be left with not only an empty pocket, but also a broken heart...
