Is the Koss KSC 75 still a good throwaway to get?

It is one of the best value-for-money keepers and gifts.

Absolutely. Bought one for a friend as a gift. He likes them better than his Carbo Tenore IEM's. Make sure you get one for yourself.

For those of you who use the Geekout 450 as a portable, does it need a separate battery pack to run out of a phone (I use Galaxy S4)?

My Moto G doesn't support USB OTG, but it powers up the 450 easily bright lights and all.

I'd probably go for a Sportapro since they have KSC35 drivers, and a parts express headband. But yeah KSC75 is still a good buy.

the sportapro is better IMO as well. more balanced without being bloated like the portapro. The sound sits perfectly in between the portapro and the ksc-75 in tonality.

I got 450 to work with the latest Android Lollipop.  However using UAPP the music would stutter and glitch at times.  What UAPP settings would make it run smoothly?

Shoot zerodeefex a pm if he doesn't see this. He's our phone guru. I'm not even on Lollipop yet.

As far as I could tell from browsing HF and LHlabs forums, no one has gotten the GO to work on the Galaxy S4. I have a Micro USB OTG cable coming in the mail tomorrow so I can try my GO 450 with my S4. I can post my results here if you like.

UPDATE:
My S4 will powered the GO 450 without a separate battery (but it will drain your phone battery pretty quickly). However, I had to use the USB Audio Player Pro (trial) app in order to get anything to play through the GO. I'm running Lollipop if that helps anything.

Did you have any stuttering with the GO450 on S4 and UAPP?  My GO runs on that combo too, but it doesn't run smoothly all the time which is why I'm probably going to sell it.  If you could share your UAPP settings that would be appreciated.  I suspect it could be it's getting inconsistent power from the S4.  I'm crossing my fingers that the v2+ works well with Android as it's advertised.
