It goes very deep. And it is not like mid-bass bump so it feels clean yet feeling of strong impact.

I listened to these headphones for a while now.

Only flaw of these headphones on sonic is that there is some kind of dip/coloration on midrange somewhere that makes vocal sounds slightly distant.


Other than that, the headphones are really good... Very neutral sounding with presence of low-bass without bleeding into other ranges (and of course, it is not as resolving as other high-end headphones, but again it's only 150 bucks closed headphones.)

Biggest problem of the headphones is cable... I hate coiled cable, and due to the fact that there is no locking mechanism, the cable detaches off very easily. Definitely not for studio-use in this regard.

I am certain that cable used on ProDJ200 will also work on Pro4S. Will contact Koss to see if I can buy it separately for my headphones tomorrow.

It turns out they do not sell the KTC cable separately... doh, it would be wonderful since from looks of it, it could be used on a lot of headphones that use 3.5mm.

Tyll, did you measure these headphones yet?

I see. Too bad I have little interest in on-ear headphones thesedays.

That actually looks good and better than I imagined except maybe distortion. Well, do you like it, Tyll?

Well... That is suspiciously similar to what I hear from my 1970's 4AA/4AAA. Perhaps Koss DID fix the new 4AA, or rather, re-release the old one...

Mmmm....haven't really listened long enough for a serious comment, but they're perfectly tolerable and the average consumer would probably be quite happy with their purchase.
