Piece of Junk!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Koss HR110Y Digital AM/FM Headphone Radio (Electronics)
I ordered two of these; one for myself, one for my boyfriend. At our gym the audio for the televisions is broadcast over a few select radio frequencies, so we needed an inexpensive way to listen while on the cardio machines. Within a matter of days the first set started going out. At first there was a low hum in the background. It got steadily louder until it was impossible to hear anything over it. The second pair's problem is with the tuner. When switched on, the tuner automatically jumps to 106 fm. It takes five or so minutes of constantly pressing the preset buttons to get it to change. Most of the time, as soon as I tune in the station I want, it instantly jumps back to 106 fm. If I am fast enough, I can switch the station lock toggle and begin my workout. It usually take five or six tries to get a station set. Obviously I am very disappointed with this product and will never buy anything of this brand again.

Works Fine,
By A Customer
This review is from: Koss HR110Y Digital AM/FM Headphone Radio (Electronics)
An earlier Koss, a similar model, preselection of several stations never did work, but otherwise the sound was good (for years). For the replacement Koss we just received from you, the preselected stations work. It is still the good sound of Koss.

One worked, one didn't,
By A Customer
This review is from: Koss HR110Y Digital AM/FM Headphone Radio (Electronics)
I had a KOSS HR 110Y earphone radio for almost two years, and I thought it was great. I took it with me to the YMCA to exercise three times a week. I liked it because: (1) it was completely on top of my head, with no cord down to my arm or belt to interfere with exercising; and (2) it has five buttons for pre-set stations, so I could change stations quickly. It worked very well, and it held up to quite a bit of getting banged around as I took it back and forth to the Y in my gym bag. Finally, after almost two years of regular use, it got broken. I had another identical one, unopened in the original package, that I had gotten many months before for someone else, who decided she didn't want it. I tried that one, and it broke for no reason the first time I used it. Then, when I was trying to see why it stopped working, I dropped it a few feet onto a carpeted floor, and the door to the battery compartment broke off, so it was totally junk. Because I had already owned it for eight months, I didn't try to return it. I would be willing to take a chance and buy a third one, hoping it would be good like the first one, rather than bad like the second. But I can't find them for sale in any physical store, and even on-line, I can't find them offered for sale by any company, although there is one individual offering them for sale in the new/used category. I wonder if KOSS still makes them, and if not, why?
