Proof the iPod's White Earbuds Don't Suck...That Much

We had a plan. After years of bitching and moaning about crappy, stock Apple earbuds, we were going to put Apple in their place, and once and for all, prove what a lousy product they were packaging with their iPods—the one kink in their plan of global music player dominance. Obviously, the $30 stock earphones in the iPod would get destroyed versus more expensive competitors like those from Shure, Ultimate Ears or V-Moda. So we ordered a bunch of earbud-style headphones all under $20 for "testing". We use those quotes because we really meant "slaughter". Who would have thought that the disrespected Apple earbuds would hold their own? More »

The Clef Earbuds from Koss

Koss is on a headphone-releasing roll, introducing a slew of cans such as those schweet Pro4AAAs we told you about yesterday, but today let's look at The Clef, earbuds that you might be tempted to carry with you all the time. These babies have a retractable cord and are configured around a keychain, something that might be a good idea to have in your pocket when you go out. And then the designers thoughtfully placed an LED flashlight on the keychain holder as well. More »

The Plug from Koss Seals Off Your Ear Canal

When you're using in-ear phones, the seal is everything, and Koss is attempting to capitalize on that phenomenon with The Plug, earbuds with shape-shifting hydrophillic urethane tips that conform to the shape of your ear canal. At just $14.95, it seems impossible that these earphones will sound very good, but the idea of a form-fitting seal is certainly on the right track. More »

Thump-No-More with Koss MP3 Tgo

No longer do you have to wear horribly ugly Thumps in order to carry around a self-contained MP3 listening system. Koss, the company that's been making headphones for the past few hundred years, offers MP3 T go, self-contained MP3 headphones that do away with wires by placing everything you need right there on your head. Transport controls and volume are conveniently built into the earcups, but too bad the thing packs a paltry 512 MB of storage. You transfer music from your computer to the T go via a mini-USB jack. These cans fold flat, are fairly light, and are equipped with a lithium-ion battery which can be recharged from your computer in about three hours, according to the company. Yours for $300. More »
