5.0 out of 5 stars Best headphones for iPhone, May 28, 2009

These headphones are the 4th pair I have owned from Koss and the 1st pair I have owned made to work for the iPhone. The plug is not the standard audio jack but has an extra connection for the built in microphone. The picture showing the earphones also shows the small oval part that contains the microphone and also the phone answer/end button. When you are listening to music and receive a call, you can just press the little button on the headphone cord to answer the call and begin talking without removing the headphones from your ear. You will hear the person in both ear pieces! When done with the call, you can just press the little button again to end. The soft foam ear piece is very comfortable and blocks out most of the outside noise. I even use them as noise blockers when I want to take a nap. The cord is very thin and weighs nothing at all. It even comes with a little pouch to hold everything neatly. There are extra foam ear cushions in the box when the first ones wear out. I have only replaced mine once in over a year. They are much easier to insert than the hard iPhone ear pieces or the headphones that hook over the ear. If you accidentally pull them out, it doesn't hurt as much either.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great for shutting out background noise, August 12, 2009

I don't consider myself an audiophile, but I was having trouble listening to my iPhone on the subway and in other noisy environments. These phones are cheap and isolate your audio very well. They are basically simple earbud speakers wrapped in foam earplugs with a hollow center, so outside noise is almost completely shut out. Even at low volume you'll get a crystal-clear sound with little interference from outside. Especially good for listening to spoken word, jazz and other "quieter" tracks. If ordinary earplugs do not "get along" with your ears, though, these will also be uncomfortable.

Great buds for iPhone. They have everything I was looking for: in ear; noise isolation; microphone with control button. I am a former Koss customer. They are great.
