Bought for the wife, she loves headphones. especially the noise cancelling. I've never figured out why she doesn't want to listen to me.....

$14 each at Amazon.

I just get knockoffs on EBay for $1/each and hope I don't
get sick.

I bet the snazzy volume control impresses the ladies at the
Gym.

Koss was a great name, back in the audiophile days of 50's 60's and 70's. Now they are just a name being slapped on products that are less than the best.

I remember it happening a few years ago. They had (I believe) 4 bags of crap in 1 wootoff.

Though I think that if they normally gave away 2000 Bag of Coal (As an example) a wootoff, then in this past one they just gave away 500 4 times.

Koss has a fantastic warranty on their headphones. Ship them off with $6 (for return shipping), your address and a description of the problem and they'll fix/replace them with no questions asked.

I'm seeing $22.00 for one pair at Walmart.com, and $6.99 for one pair (free ship) on Buy.com

Considering this is a two-pack for $7.99, I'd say this is a good deal-- in for two two-packs :D

These look like the same ones going for $15 on Amazon:

And if I am reading the description on Woot correctly, we get 2 sets for $7.99. So this looks likea great deal!

I'm in for 3 (6 sets) - great stocking stuffers for my nieces, teenagers always need an extra pair of headphones.

I got some a couple of weeks ago, and they have a little bit of good quality, but they're super big and are very difficult to fit in your ears.

Picked up a couple of these in the last Woot Off. Sound quality is fine, but "noise isolating" is a far cry from "noise cancelling." I use these on the loud and creaky NYC subway, and they do no better than any other variety of earbud I've ever tried. Also, the buds are on uneven-length cords, such that the volume control piece hangs very close to the left ear - bizarre.

One cord goes behind the neck.... hence the different lengths.


My typing today is soo spot on..

I bought a couple from Woot last year and I LOVE them. They fit great, have great sound quality, and the volume adjustment is so convenient. Well worth the money IMO.

I bought these about a month ago. They're red, but with a pink hue. I don't care for pink, but they're in my ears when in use - so they could be polka dotted orange and green for all I care. The cords are black (with a small volume limiter that is also red/pink) but what stranger is really going to look at these things and care?

The sound is good for the price, although small noises on the cords carries to the ears. The best feature - smaller replaceable pads - With small ears, I have ear trouble with most ear buds.

6.99 free shipping = $14 for two pairs

7.99 +$5 for shipping = $13

that's 5:30 pm EST - you know when we here on the east coast are sitting in traffic trying to get home, prevented by law from using our phones while driving (even though usually we're not moving).
