The old Koss Pro-4's are very isolating too due to pure design, especially of the
ear cushion. There's a Chinese Company (Oritech ?) making a copy of the Mk2
version, I saw some when I was there. I asked for a sample but I never got
one. :-(

They're so good, the BBC even got them to make a genuine 600 ohm version.

They also reproduce bass like no other headphone. Turn it up too high and it'll
blow the cans off your ears ! Heavy to wear though and tight on the ears, so
extended use may be uncomfortable. I think Radio Shack may sell them.

PA can STFU.


Yea but the Koss Pro's are like wearing rocks on your ears.
Uncomfortable is an understatement


I appreciate that but they're tolerable for an hour or so. PLUS they do *exactly* what
the OP wants.

I'm tempted to get a new pair (my old ones are nearly 40 yrs old and falling apart)
actually even though I rate my Beyer DT331s for casual use (open back).
