Overall, I'm pleased with the headphones: foldable design and excellent sound. But a very small cord. Maybe it's worth buying an extension cord for them. Very good sound for such little money. Lightweight, put them on and just forget that they are on your head. Pleasant, unloaded bass, high frequencies are generally gorgeous. They add up in no time. Overall the sound quality is very decent and worth the money. Very flimsy cord. You can just see by eye that the UR 20 is much more reliable. And the paint is rather weak, it peels off over time. Koss, as always, saves on materials. The cord is still too small. They have a 1.2 meter cord - very short! My previous ones were twice as large (2.4 m).  Skorney: use Koss UR40 few months |
I REALLY wanted to buy these headphones and finally I got them. The headphones are very light, do not press on the head. Good surround, non-overloaded bass, all effects are heard very well, and overall the sound quality is excellent. When you listen to music in them, you feel comfortable, you simply forget that they are on your head. Weight, portability, sound quality and build quality. Very comfortable headphones. The cord is a bit short, and the diameter of the cord is somewhere around 2 - 3mm, but I would like it to be larger. Metalfan: use Koss UR40 week |
I’ve been using it for almost 10 years now, and no problems, despite the thin (but high-quality) wire. Very comfortable and lightweight headphones with high-quality sound Noted Andrey Kalinichenko: use Koss UR40 more than year i recommend it should buy |
Lightweight and comfortable headphones
The Koss UR40 is a full-cup open style headphone. The feature of the headphones lies in the folding design: the headband arms fold together with the cup mounts, and the overall size of the headphones is reduced by half. Together with a light weight of 175 g, this makes them very easy to carry. And thanks to the comfortable headboard mesh and high-quality leatherette ear cushions from Koss UR40, your head does not get tired. Unless, of course, you try to listen to the discography of Gucci Mane in one sitting. The only complaint we have is the cord — for this class of headphones, it is quite thin and short.
Atypical Koss sound
The sound of the UR40 is quite original and somewhat unusual for Koss. Usually, the company is famous for its driving and assertive sound with an emphasis on bass. Here, the sound is somehow lighter and more airy, with unexpectedly soft and low frequencies, thanks to which the overall picture sounds more balanced. But the high frequencies are recouped a little strange, they are in abundance, but they sound somehow blurred. But the sound has excellent positioning in space, so that each instrument can be easily distinguished in the overall ensemble.
listen in silence
However, it is important to remember that thanks to the open cups, external sounds easily mix with the music, which makes you want to turn it up louder. However, at a volume close to 90%, the membrane begins to choke, and almost nothing remains of the former beauty of the sound. Therefore, the perfect place to operate the Koss UR40 will be where there is not a lot of external noise. Otherwise, these are excellent and relatively inexpensive headphones that win back every penny. And they cost just under $50.
