Our take on the Koss RUK30

by David Brown

Better sound is within your budget

Koss has long been known for making great-sounding portable headphones that won't break the bank. Their RUK30 in-ear headphones are a terrific way to upgrade those stock earbuds without spending a fortune. These sleek, comfortable headphones are a great option if you want to enjoy music on your mobile device with no hassles. The flat, tangle-resistant cord will help eliminate annoying knots, so you can keep these earbuds in your pocket or bag for on-the-go listening. Koss includes three pairs of ear tips to help you find the right fit for proper noise isolation as well as comfort.

    Easy on the ear for a great price

    Written By Namaste16, Silver Spring, MD on Sunday, March 10, 2013
    Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
     
    These little Koss headphones are great. I wanted an inexpensive pair of headphones for my mp3 player, and I definitely feel as though these were a steal. The sound is rich and full. The bass carries very nicely with no distortion. I do wish there was a bit more depth in the base, but I really only miss it when I'm listening to genres that favor heavy bass (R&B, Bossa Nova, etc). The red is fun. The construction is solid, and as a person with smaller ears, the customizable ear pieces are key. I'm not sure if the angle of the earbud in the ear is really beneficial, but it's an interesting concept. I would highly recommend the RUK30s. I am purchasing a pair for my 9 year old!
    Pros:
    Terrific sound quality Awesome price Fun colors
    Cons:
    Not a single thing

    Good value earphones

    Written By Bahn, New York on Wednesday, January 30, 2013
    Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
     
    I maxed all the attributes considering the price it was being sold at as it performed above my expectation. Bass and treble are balanced that I barely catch distortion unlike my iBeats earphones. My expectation of course is based on my Sony PLIIX and Dr. Beats earphones. I have quite a collection of close-ear headphones but for my workout and other non-desk activities I use earphones. I'm very satisfied with the rubber earplugs, doesn't slip as bad as my Sony & more conforming that iBeats.
    Pros:
    Cheap, comfortable, balanced sound, signal-to-noise ratio seems higher than iBeats and the nut head looks very cool and turns out to be a good push rod when installing the set into your ears. Uses the flat cable form so it doesn't tangle.
    Cons:
    None I can think of.
