Beat To Death And Still Running.......2006-06-09

I've had mine for a few years now, and I have beaten mine to death...but it still sounds great. I've taken my TD-61 out camping, boating, on vacations, and even use it at work every work day (computer stuff). They're comfortable over my eye glasses even after hours of listening and escaping at my desk. I own a more expensive USB SENNHEISER PC165 headset for gaming, but the comfort doesnt compare and bang for the buck the TD-61 is really a nicer headset. I've had some mid-end Sony headphones before, but they just didn't feel comfortable with my eye glasses. I've destroyed my existing pair of TD-61's cosmetically (of my own doing) one way or another. One side of the headset is rigged with cable ties, and the other with velcro ties..heh. :) About a year ago, I accidentally got my cable caught up with my desk chair and ripped my left ear cable loose when I started walking off with them on. I forgot I had them on (um, duh!) It took 3 minutes to warm up the sodder gun and re-attach it. It disassembles without the need for tools. Though I love this pair, I guess its time to reorder a new set for work so that I don't remind people of eye glasses with tape in the middle...I suppose I'll use these in my garage,...(Side note, listening with them now, while righting this review)

Couldn't be more pleased.......2006-03-27

I believe I spent a relatively low amount for these, and they've been very good to me. I've never had a problem with them, even with the four or five years I've had them.

The sound is perfect and the ear padding is great.

I don't think anyone would regret buying these; I know I haven't.

worn out earpadding?.......2005-04-08

ive had my td61's for 3+ years now. the ear pads are starting to wear, but the sound is still there and it functions completely fine. if you have the same problem the koss website, koss.com, has replacement pads for 5 bucks. a good option rather than buying new ones.

Beautiful headphones with some kinks .......2004-12-27

i loved these headphones when i got them and i used them for about 7 months till natrually a kid kicked my backpack at school and severly damaged the "case" the speakers are held in. I found that these headphones have great speakers in them with great clarity in bass and treble. But the slight design flaw in them makes them easy to break the "case" when hit. One other thing that bothered me about these headphones is the wire is very slim and easy to damage especially because its 8 feet long. Personally yes i will buy a new pair of Koss headphones because of this great experience with their work but im still undecided wether it was just bad luck that made the case on mine break or it really was a design flaw and i was asking for it. They are made for home use so i probably had it coming to me using them as my regular headphones everywhere i went.

Worth 5 Times The Price!.......2004-10-12

I wanted a good, inexpensive pair of noise reducing headphones and came across these on Amazon. Some people reviews said they were good, but they broke easy. I have to say, they are perfect for me. I was just looking for something that I could use on the computer, while my girlfriend watched TV. These are better than I thought they would be. They have a very long cord, which is a big plus, and they block out almost all other sound in the room. The Koss TD-61 are well worth the $15 I paid for them!

good for so small.......2002-12-03

These are decent for their size and price. People complain about lack of bass capabilities, but there are limits when you have a speaker that small. Good, i recomend them, the case is nice, bit time consuming to constently put in and take out, but alaround good.

Cheap, Very Portable, But..........2002-11-09

I keep these in my computer bag for those days (1-2/week) that I am not in my primary office, where I have a decent pair of phones. First and foremost, they are extremely portable. The case is probably 3-4 inches in diameter, so they'll take up little space. The sound is decent. After 6-8 hours wearing them, though, and inserting/removing numerous times when moving about, the comfort level drops precipitously. Also, the cord is pretty short, so even pushing away from the desk can put you at the end of your tether. Still, for [X] or less, they are not much of an investment. I am searching reviews now for some 'phones that are going to be more comfortable. I can't imagine I'll find anything more portable.So, for infrequent use, these are fine. For more regular or prolonged use while on the road, I'm going to spend more and hopefully get something more comfortable.

Amazon.com Product Description

If you're using (or plan to use) a high-definition or HD-ready TV, you'll appreciate the system's progressive scanning, which is referred to as 480p for the number of horizontal lines that compose the video image. This feature creates a picture with twice the scan lines of a conventional DVD image, giving you sharper, higher resolution images while eliminating nearly all motion artifacts.

The system's 50-watts-per-channel receiver delivers a total of 600 watts of home-theater power, and the five speakers are acoustically designed to match the receiver's tonal characteristics. The front left, right, and center speakers are magnetically shielded to prevent interference with your TV's image. The tuner offers 40 FM/AM presets.

Connections include two analog-audio inputs and one analog-audio output, along with two digital-audio inputs (one each coaxial and optical). Three video outputs--composite-, component-, and S-video--accommodate most TVs and monitors.

What's in the Box
DVD/receiver combo, a remote control with two AA batteries, an AM loop antenna, an FM wire antenna, an analog audio interconnect (white/red tips), a composite-video interconnect (yellow tips), a component-video interconnect (red/blue/green tips), five satellite speakers, requisite speaker cables, a passive subwoofer, a subwoofer cable, a user's manual, and a Quick Use guide.

Does not play DVDs from Region "All".......2005-12-27

This DVD player advertised (incorrectly) that it can play DVDs from region "All". I purchased it because my wife has several Russian movie classics on DVD that use region "All". The Magnavox player failed to read these DVDs. I called customer service and the short version is that they do not care. I bought this on clearance, so I am stuck with no returns, no warranty, and no functional DVD player.

Trouble.......2005-05-12

I got this in Jan 2004 Started having some problems with it then it just quit messed the warranty by 3 months. They want even try to feel sorry about it.. I sure wish I had come here and read the reviews first. Since I was the only one using it and I did not use it that much it took a little longer to tear up.But it did the very same thing the other people were talking about. One of the people at Magnavox tole me the eye will get off that reads.LIke I went in there and gave it a black eye Huh, This is a DUD stay away.. O the remote was a pain from Day one any way.. I will never ever buy Magnavox again!!!

Absolutely lousy.......2004-11-18

I purchased this item in July. I hooked it up and it did not work. I called customer service twice and was put on hold both times. The second time the customer service fellow was pleasant but not helpful. I rewired the surround system while he waited(seemed like it took forever). In the end, it did not work at all. So it sits here as a $200 paperweight that my wife teases me about.

Thank You Magnavox and Target too.......2004-10-27

I found the Magnavox MRD210 at the closeout table in the electronic dept of our local Target. What a find!. I bought it and set it up. It easily performed as well as the Sony my son has. I have hooked it up directly to my cable box and the result is faux digital on all the movies that are shown in 5.1 digital. Put in a DVD disk and look out! It's mind blowing that these little speakers can sound so big. 300 watts is very suffient. For the money it was a steal. Can't thank Target enough for selling it to me at the ridiculous sale price.

Wheres the sound?.......2004-09-27

I received the MRD-210 as a gift. First the remote was tricky to get to work. When I finally got the sound to work it was wavy while watching television. I tried a dvd, the surrounding sounds were great, loud. The actual dialogue...I could see the lips move but could barely hear what they were saying. I know, turn up the volume. At maximum I could kind of hear them, the surrounding sounds were deafening. Would I recommend this to anyone, Im taking mine back and getting a Sony.
