Massdrop x Koss Porta Pro X On-Ear Headphones — Collapsible for Maximum Portability

ON-EAR HEADPHONES FROM AN AUDIO LEGEND: In the 1950s, when rock ‘n’ roll was sweeping the nation but headphones were still largely reserved for communication purposes, Koss came along and changed everything by making the first stereo headphones designed specifically for personal music consumption. Since then, the company has continued to bring listeners closer to the music they love, and among their most popular releases was 1984’s Porta Pro. An instant hit for its portable, on-ear design and warm, smooth, detailed sound, it’s still considered one of the best values in entry-level headphones to this day. And now, it’s getting an update in the Massdrop x Koss Porta Pro X: more modern and more durable, with the same light, take-me-anywhere build backed by Koss’s lifetime . LIGHT, LOCKABLE & SMARTPHONE FRIENDLY: Weighing in at just 2 ounces, these headphones are great for anyone who wants the convenience of earbuds but doesn’t like the feeling of wearing something in their ears. Plus, they can fold in several different configurations and lock for secure, compact carry in the included pouch. Engineered for durability, the Porta Pro X has a thicker cable with strain relief on the connector and a more robust “Y” split—common points of failure on the Porta Pro. And since this new model is meant to pair with a smartphone, something the original never was, it features a noise-cancelling inline microphone that won’t compromise the audio performance. The single-button control lets you skip tracks, make calls, and activate voice commands. Meanwhile, the sleek, subdued midnight-blue colorway lets you tune in without standing out. ADDITIONAL DETAILS: The Porta Pro X’s adjustable temporal pads relieve pressure on the ears to keep you comfortable, while its lightweight, open-air cushions allow you to stay aware of your surroundings without affecting sound quality. Finally, the oxygen-free copper voice coils and dynamic elements provide a wide frequency response with rich bass.

A MODERN UPDATE ON A KOSS CLASSIC – Koss rocked the music world in 1984 with the Porta Pro headphones. Now, over three decades later, we’ve brought this classic back with modern updates.
LIGHTWEIGHT & LOCKABLE – Part of what made the original Koss Porta so popular was its portable, locking design. We kept that design in the Porta Pro X to help you listen wherever you go. Impedance is 60 ohms
EXTRA DURABILITY – Designing our modern update for even more durability, we gave the Porta Pro X a thicker cable with strain relief on the connector and a more robust “Y” split than its predecessor.
SMARTPHONE READY, MICROPHONE EQUIPPED – Bringing the Porta Pro X into the 21st century, we made it smartphone-compatible (no amp required) and equipped it with a noise cancelling mic. We also added single-button control and midnight blue colorway.
