Reviews of the Koss KEB/79

    CNET Review

    July 20, 2007

    The Good: The Koss KEB/79 offers a handy modular cable that allows the user to select length, and Koss includes a carrying pouch. The headphones offer warm mids and decent clarity, causing certain types of music to shine. Bass response is good, but only if you can get a good fit.

    The Bad: The cable of the Koss KEB/79 is tangle-prone and thin, causing concern for durability, and the weight of the inline mute button and modular connection tends to pull the left earbud out. Some users will have issues getting an effective seal with the ear, making it difficult to achieve adequate isolation and hear the low end.

    The Bottom Line: There are better earbud options in the $100 price range, but the Koss KEB/79 offers a couple of interesting features that may appeal to some users. Plus, they offer good sound--if you can get a proper fit.
