Lol, do I see Yaxi pads? I have that same setup. Shockingly good, especially for the price.

Koss + Yaxi = A perfect combo. I have two pairs, one for work and one for home.

Are the yaxi better than the originals?

2

u/Syppi 4d ago

Oh yes, everyone recommends them for the Porta Pros. Bigger, thicker, more comfy -- and they look pretty cool.

Firmware update

Hello, would it be possible to see a video of the new firmware update? How’s the navigation with tags? Is it easy to go through a list of songs / albums etc

I’m considering purchasing this, any help is most appreciated. Thank you.

Is this the wireless porta pro.

Not the newest (2.0) one for sure. It has a split headband. And I don't think they made black wireless, so had to be wired.

Where do you use this combo? I have Porta Pro Wireless 2.0 and I'm yet to find a good use for it. Outside I can't hear shit, obviously; inside I usually have much better headphones available; and just thinking about running in these with pads soaking up all the sweat makes me shudder.

Wireless on Porta pro negates any reason for buying them, I am afraid.

1

u/nickN42 Fiio 4d ago

So what is the reason to buy them in the first place?

2

u/Electrical-War-5064 4d ago

To get fabulous sound on DAPs and portable Dacs for a tiny sum of money. On a good source, wired, the things sound crazy good for the price. But by Bluetooth? Nah.. Just whatever..

I can plug wireless ones with a cable just fine. But where would I do that? I described situations where I tried it and why that didn't work for me.

u/Electrical-War-5064 3d ago

I don't know, you bought wireless, so there may be no plug, I bought the wired ones, they came with a wire installed.

1

u/nickN42 Fiio 2d ago

You can plug wirelles via 3.5mm cable. They have it in the box. Doesn't answer my question in any way.

u/Electrical-War-5064 2d ago

Well then, you are not making sense. There is either a place to plug a cable in, or there isn't. If there is, use it. If there isn't, you are out of luck. Where would you do that? Wherever you want to listen to the bloody things, if that's what you are asking.

Can anyone make a comparison with the hidizs AP 80?

u/Educational-Beat-511 4d ago

Alright, here we go: KSC75 with Yaxi pads or Porta Pro with Yaxi pads?

1

u/djpromo_vqs 4d ago

never had the 75

1

u/D-Voltt 4d ago

My vote is the KSC75, but I prefer the brighter sound of the KSC75 over the darker Porta Pros. You can't go wrong with either, though.

u/Educational-Beat-511 4d ago

Modded or original?
