Head Fi

A stylistic and fantastic sounding set of Headphones. Crispy and detailed with a tight bass.

Great as an all purpose, listenable set of cans. In a train, on a plane, working from home or in the office.

Big chunky wireless Headphones. Some people will love these because of the way they fit over the ears, others will find them too cumbersome and awkward. If that's you, you should look at the YH-L700A. 

But no doubt these are a fantastic sounding Headphone for the price. And of course having the Bluetooth, wireless, active noise-cancellation is very welcome.

This is a quality unit. A metallic chassis houses a beefy headphone amp and DAC but still in a neat portable, battery operated form. 

Nice touches are the ability to run the 3.5 and the 1/4 inch outputs simultaneously.

There's nothing clunky or cheap feeling on this unit. The volume knob feels solid and smooth and sturdy. No cheap bits of plastic attached to the unit at all.

Meze is very clear on who they want to buy the 99 Neo as opposed to the wood finished 99 Classic. This is a “darker, edgier” finish aimed squarely at the hipster metro dudes who want something a bit more ‘timeless’ but still highly fashionable.

It is the same core 40mm driver supra-aural design but the materials and finish have been changed as well as the pads. This is now designed for better comfort but less ostentatious in its aesthetics and something that could sit casually by the side of a laptop in Starbucks. The phrase ‘contemporary styling’ has been used and it is that and then some, yet it’s still unmistakably Meze.

Another pair of $500ish Earbuds to come onto the market. Clearer in sound than the Klipsches the emphasis is on good sound quality with the noise cancelling turned on. 

We love the little design touches and the simple sliding case that doubles as the charger.

For an inexpensive set of Headphones, these have a lot of useful features for everyday life. 

Adjustable controls means you can make sure you don't miss sounds from the real world that might be important.

Active noise cancellation means you can choose to cut out the real world completely. And don't we all need that sometimes!

Koss were the very first company to manufacture Headphones or Stereophones as they were then known for personal audio use. Prior to their SP/3 model release in 1958, Headphones were used purely for communication purposes. Think 1940s war time Telephone switch boards. 

In any case, Koss has been manufacturing Headphones since 1958 in Milwaukee Wisconsin and is still owned my the Son and family of John C. Kloss who started the business. A real family tradition.

Whether you're a musician after a set of decent studio monitors or an audiophile wanting a pair of Headphones that'll give you that extra bit of detail and precision, these are the ones.

They look clunky but are light weight and therefore feel super comfortable on.

The Pro4S Headphones on the Koss official website

A wireless set of comfortable over ear headphones with a decent 12 hour battery life. Koss have been making Headphones for decades and have stayed around because their gear is much loved certainly by Carlton Audio Visual staff anyway. 

On a side note I was amused to read that little Koss Headphone company was caught up in the Reddit wallstreetbets fiasco that saw Reddit users rally to Koss stocks and greatly inflate its stock price. This was because people in offices on Wall Street were betting that Koss was going to lose money. Instead Koss made a huge amount of money (albeit not because of the inherent value of the company going up). Koss will keep making Headphones we all enjoy and people in the Koss family made a rather large amount of money inadvertently!

I've personally had Koss Porta Pro Headphones for a number of years now and I added a pair of the Koss Porta Pro wireless version to the stable after going through a couple of pairs of Earbuds that were incompatible with me...I'm still not sure whether that's because I get unusually sweaty ears or tiny ears or a combination of both but they would never stay in my ears.

These are super comfortable though and sound massively better than the Earbuds. The Bluetooth receiver does jiggle a little but that's an easy trade-off for me for not having to worry about an Earbud falling out of my ear onto the pavement.

A set of wireless earbuds by the experts at Yamaha. Sounding better than the apple earbuds but not going to break the bank. These are a nice option to make your ears feel loved.

Super easy to use with voice activation, gaming mode, double device bluetooth connection and dual on each earbud for clearer calls.

These come in a range of colours generally we keep the black, grey and beige in stock but we can get the others. Please call us to check specific colour availability.

These are the same as the classic Koss Porta Pro Headphones just with an inline microphone and volume control for added convenience.

Actually there is no better icon of headphone than this .. their unique spring headclamp system is as unique in cocept as a Ducati's Desmodromic Valve gear ... The Bass response is simply magnificent with a perfect balance of pressure and comfort ...

These are ridiculously undervalued headphones. I find my self often recommending them to instagrammed millennials who are seeking the latest review nurtured piece of head-fi fashion for up to a $1000 because they are a simply excellent and unique audio transducer for wearing on one's ears.

"The headphones every design lover should wear" 

Koss Headphones were actually the very first company to make Headphones for personal stereo listening. Founded in 1958 by John C Koss, the business is still run by the same family. In fact it's John C Koss's son and grandson who are at the helm. 

Take a look at their Koss History page on their website and you'll get a sense of the seriously cool products they've made and the musicians they've collaborated with. They decked out the Airforce One Jet with Koss Headphones in 1969.
