I need me somes kph30i 🤤

[@OkieDokieSmokie]

I've got 10 pairs of headphones. All the way up to HD650's. But my kph30i's are genuinely my favorite. I've never had so much fun for the cost of a nice meal.

[@truthorhappiness]

The only headphone even close to the KPH30 is the discontinued original white Sennheiser PX100. I cried for a week when I broke mine. They were my favourite headphone…and the KPH30i fills the void of the px100 completely! I will be buying 10 of these so I’ll always have a working pair until I croak.

Making a big deal about the 'unboxing experience' and saying 'uhh yeah I'm probably going to throw away the box' is the dumbest shit I've heard today

[@jpmac1324]

Dude. Subbed! I ordered this as I am watching your video.

[@MichaelSidneyTimpson]

Funny, my two favorite headphones that I can wear all day long are my 6xxs and these, which I've always felt were like 6xx "light".

I was going to comment on the G-Pads but you've covered them well. I can't wait to hear your opinion on the KPH with the pads as I've got plans to order the very same at a later date when these don't cost £60 a pair to get to Europe.

[@vitaminzeth3742]

I'm super happy to hear! I for sure will do a sound test recording for the KPH30i's with the H.E.A.R.S when I get around to it. Cause I really do want it to be online even if it is;t the best recording rig xD

[@bladecup]

You have cheaper gpads for 2e or less,they arent foam but they are from sponge pretty decent,i regret i took expensive one from amazon,try aliexpress...

[@jpeg3933]

Love the reaction

[@allanrico021]

I don't recommend them with the grado pads. They become sibilant and lose the fun Koss sound profile. My recommendation is to better purchase the KPH30i clears and stay with the stock pads as the clamping force is also less than the grey / or this ones from the video.

[@Criiies]

Good stuff

[@herb601]

Loved your reaction. Truly though, don't you think you needed to break them in a bit and perhaps list to more than 16 bars of music? Koss has been in business since 1958. I was 12. I own several different pairs of the KPH30i's. Also, KSC75 and Porta Pro Ltd. Edition. I did put different pads on the 30i's and I also removed the padding that comes with the 30i's. Big difference. I also changed the original pads on my others to Yaxi pads. Gives a bit more cushioning.

[@vitaminzeth3742]

Oh I have been Laurie, ever since I've used them for travel, before bed time and also for other stuff like listening to a final mix. I really have been enjoying the 30is. I appreciate you sharing your experiences!

[@herb601]

@@vitaminzeth3742 Glad you are enjoying them. Sometimes 'cheap' can be good. :-)

[@JohnSmith-zl8rz]

the Schitt combo makes any difference with this headphones?

[@ashuri599]

Hello! a bit late, but have you tried the Koss KSC75s? they are arguably the most neutral sounding of Koss's holy trinity (Porta Pro, KPH30i, KSC75). They're also considerably sparkly bright-neutral in terms of sound signature so I figured you would really like them (they're called Baby Grados back in the day)

[@Verociity]

I have the ksc75 and kph40, where does the kph30i sit? I like the clarity of the ksc75, it feels more muffled on the kph40. I'm thinking the kph30 is the middleground between them.

[@ashuri599]

@@Verociity It's KPH40 ➡️ KPH30i ➡️ KSC75 in terms of detail, tuning, and signature. KSC75 is arguably the best sounding out of Koss's Holy Trinity and Utility Series's KPH40. A lot does not like KPH40's because of its similarity to Porta Pros. (Same drivers, bloated muddy bass)

[@Verociity]

@@ashuri599 Does the kph30 have more bass than the ksc75? I like the bass of the kph40 but it is a bit muddy.

[@ashuri599]

@@Verociity Sort of, not as prevalent as Porta Pro's, but KPH30i's do have a slightly longer mid-bass extension than KSC75, but also suffers the same sub roll off.

[@Elegiac7]

Try the Clear version. More clarity, more treble, no mods necessary. The 30i's come close to the k240 studios (I mean... ya know... sort of), but the DF's are in another league entirely.

[@wrusst]

The ksc75 is supposed to be brighter, lower base and cheaper

[@adamr7720]

20$ on drop rn

[@johngordon1175]

They are not expensive!

Why does her microphone look like a potato?

[@pierresternegard6951]

Who cares about the boxing? Well not a real audiophile.. an real audiophile couldn't care about cable either.. if it suits well and sounds good it's all that matters So clearly this is noobs review.. a fashion persons review
