Koss Stereophones x Richer Sounds UK
Richer Sounds and Koss announce an exclusive UK distribution partnership.
Koss Corporation, which created the World's First SP/3 Stereophone in 1958, continues to be an attractive proposition for music on the go thanks to its retro-tinged, affordable headphones.
One of the brand's most notable products, the Koss Porta Pro headphones, has been praised by numerous reviewers for their low cost but warm and natural sound. They have picked up accolades since their release in 1984.
A new version of the Porta Pro, the Porta Pro Wireless 2.0 (above), was recently released. It is designed to serve the needs of today's customers with wireless Bluetooth, a built-in mic, and onboard controls while keeping the retro styling Koss is known for.
Dylan Squire, Purchasing Director at Richer Sounds, told StereoNET:
We're so happy to be bringing the iconic Koss headphone brand back to the UK. The superb sound quality, lightweight frame and retro looks make Koss headphones a fantastic option for our customers, who appreciate performance at a wallet-friendly price.
Michael J. Koss, Jr., Vice President Marketing & Product at Koss, added:
Richer Sounds is the perfect retail environment for Koss headphones. We have a long and proud heritage of delivering excellent audio quality on the go and invite customers to visit their local branch to try them out for themselves. Whether clients are looking for headphones for music on the move, work calls, or home listening, we're confident that we have their needs covered.
Koss headphones can be auditioned at any of Richer Sounds' fifty UK stores.

applause awards
Each time StereoNET reviews a product, it is considered for an Applause Award. Winning one marks it out as a design of great quality and distinction – a special product in its class, on the grounds of either performance, value for money, or usually both.
Applause Awards are personally issued by StereoNET’s global Editor-in-Chief, David Price – who has over three decades of experience reviewing hi-fi products at the highest level – after consulting with our senior editorial team. They are not automatically given with all reviews, nor can manufacturers purchase them.
The StereoNET editorial team includes some of the world’s most experienced and respected hi-fi journalists with a vast wealth of knowledge. Some have edited popular English language hi-fi magazines, and others have been senior contributors to famous audio journals stretching back to the late 1970s. And we also employ professional IT and home theatre specialists who work at the cutting edge of today’s technology.
We believe that no other online hi-fi and home cinema resource offers such expert knowledge, so when StereoNET gives an Applause Award, it is a trustworthy hallmark of quality. Receiving such an award is the prerequisite to becoming eligible for our annual Product of the Year awards, awarded only to the finest designs in their respective categories. Buyers of hi-fi, home cinema, and headphones can be sure that a StereoNET Applause Award winner is worthy of your most serious attention.
