I know a lot of you have been waiting for A/550 to become available on Amazon Prime, today is that day.
Still working on getting our Amazon EU storefront up and running, but it is now available in the US on Amazon Prime.
A bunch of you ask for an update on when the Koss Factory Store will be re-opening so wanted to let you guys know we are doing a soft opening starting today/this week!
We haven't been open since the pandemic and we didn't want to overwhelm our small Customer Service staff with a lot of pomp and circumstance, but you are ABSOLUTELY more than welcome to stop in and check out the new store and little museum with the world's first SP/3 Stereophone, HV/1A, Oculus Rift Display and short The Birth of the Stereophone documentary. (and preferably buy some headphones if you need headphones..lol)
Of course i'm there to help our incredible Customer Service girls so please feel free to ask for me and if I'm not in a meeting or occupied I'll come up front, answer any questions, or if you're a content creator I can setup private tour for you to snag content!
It's not a massive space, but I think we've done an incredible job of making it feel unique, stunning with some really cool history that was never publicly available.
And I truly apologize to the person who left a 2-star review on Google this past Friday who tried to visit the store, we've been trying to re-claim our Google, Yelp and TripAdvisor listings, I've had to spend an obscene amount of time, testing, and work getting them updated with content/hours/info.
Hey Martin from Koss Headphones here!
Wanted to give everyone an update on the upcoming Outlet Store remodel. We’re getting close. Very close. Like a couple weeks close to opening back up. Hoping mid August!
We’ve done a complete remodel and it’s stunning! This week displays go up to try on and explore all of our headphones including the all new A/550 https://www.koss.com/a550, the history wall is done complete with an original SP/3 from 1958 and an HV/1A you can see, a short documentary on the TV and all of our products available at the new store.
Very excited to finally re-open and for everyone to see what we’ve been cooking for you! Cheers!
*peek, it won’t let me change the title
This design/color combo was one of the first projects I got to work on when I started getting involved with product development and I'm gonna toot my own horn a little and say this is one of the slickest looking colorways we've released in a while.
The white is just enough of an off-white, and paired with the red/blue accents, it just feel very NASA/Punk and almost has a future/space vibe to it.
I've always loved the KPH30 Wireless, but it feels like a completely different headphone in this colorway and just so excited to finally release it!
We've been releasing two new cushion colors with the Spring/Fall seasons, most recently this past spring with Pink and Teal Standard and Oversized Cushions.
Wanted to give you guys a sneak peak at what's dropping this fall... Slate and Brown Standard and Oversized Cushions.
The both genuinely looks sick, but I gotta say the Slate looks extra sick on Porta Pro Wireless Arctic White and KPH40/Retro, and Brown looks super sick on any Rhythm Beige Porta Pro!
You guys are the first to know!
The legendary sound, comfort and wireless freedom of KPH30 Wireless is here with an all-new breathtaking Orbital White colorway.
Reimagined from the inside out, the Koss KPH30 Wireless features breathtaking high-fidelity audio from 15-25,000 Hz. Built on an all-new, sophisticated design that stays true to the original KPH30i aesthetic, KPH30 Wireless introduces a redesigned headband and Patent Pending suspension built for increased strength, durability, and all-day comfort.
Integrated audio controls and a built-in microphone make it easy to take calls, control your music, or activate your device’s voice assistant and for even more flexibility, KPH30 Wireless features a Hybrid Headphone design with Analog Audio Pass Through when paired with the additional KUSB-50 cord (sold separately/available at a later date), giving you the freedom to switch between wireless and wired listening with ease.
With up to 20+ hours of battery life and USB-C charging, KPH30 Wireless is built to keep up with your day from morning to night, delivering The Sound of Koss® anywhere you go.

I’ve started posting on here letting you guys know when we push our genuinely ridiculous deals because I’ve realized a lot of people never even know they happened.
We've got a new deal right now on our flagship In-Ear Headphone that a lot of people don't even realize we make, the KEB90 Utility. It's on Amazon right now for just $24.99 (down from $69.99) which is hands down the lowest price we have EVER dropped it to. Cheers!
The Koss KEB90 Utility combines premium craftsmanship with legendary Koss sound in a sleek in-ear design built for serious listening. Precision-tuned 16 Ohm dynamic drivers deliver unmatched, high-fidelity audio with exceptional clarity, balanced detail, and deep bass with an ultra-wide frequency response of 10-25,000 Hz.
Crafted from precision-machined aluminum, KEB90 Utility offers a refined look and feel that’s as durable as it is stylish. Its detachable cord system provides added versatility to connect to 3.5mm, USB-C and Bluetooth devices. Designed for listeners who demand both performance and flexibility, the KEB90 Utility delivers premium sound and premium design in one package.
We have been so thrilled that A/550 has been such a massive success in the US! Even I wasn't prepared for how well it would be received by our customers, so thank you to everyone who joined the A/550 family and for all the DM's and reviews and emails sharing your photo's, enjoyment and enthusiasm!
As we expand availability for A/550 into the EU and beyond I wanted to give a quick update as to where and when you can get A/550 in your country.

Got a new insane deal on Porta Pro Wireless on Amazon, just $79.99 for the next few weeks on Arctic White, Rhythm Beige and Black!
https://www.amazon.com/Koss-Porta-Pro-Wireless-2-0/dp/B0FGG5XLYW
Just an FYI, we're doing an insane deal on KPH30 Wireless right now on Amazon for just $39.99. It's only for a couple weeks so thought I'd share here!
Gratuitous Thursday Porta Pro glam shot.
Really digging the official Koss Orange standard size cushions with Porta Pro Wireless.
Thought it would be fun to share some very old A/550 renders.
It’s always such an amazing process watching one of our headphones transform from concept to creation.
A/550 went through so many acoustic and design refinements to get it to the headphone that it is today, and especially on a project of this magnitude it’s always fun to look back and see where it started, and not something people often get to see.
Cheers!
A/550 has been one of our most successful launches in years, and we can't thank our customers enough not only for ordering, but for the overwhelming amount of emails, DMs, messages and photo's of your setup, letting us know how much you love this headphone!
As you know, A/550 ships with a Mini XLR to 3.5mm 6.5ft cord. A/550 supports balanced audio connections and we have received a sizable amount of requests for an OEM 4.4 Balanced cable.
Our engineers immediately got to prototyping a solution that will be just beautiful as the OEM cord, and will be unmatched in aesthetic, durability, reliability and most importantly, price.
Will keep you guys updated but we are looking to get this new A/550 Balanced Cord done for you ASAP!
Currently out of town, but my email and DMs are flooded with messages from everyone who ordered A/550 and enjoying them, and promise I will get back to EVERYONE!
But in the mean time would love to see everyone’s A/550 setup and glam shots if you’ve taken any and can share!

They're just starting to roll in, but put together a little list of some of the early unboxing/reactions below I've seen for anyone interested. More unboxings vids will be rolling in with full reviews in the coming weeks. I believe we sent out a bout 30 review samples. We send samples to a full array of reviewers from casual listeners to audiophiles who will measure and go over every last detail.
