Koss unveils Porta Pro KTC headphones, and in-ear stereophones with interlocking design

Fans of retro might remember Koss and their Porta Pro headphone series back in the day. Well looking to stay relevant, the company has decided to reissue the headphones by revamping it with an inclusion of an iDevice certified inline remote/mic. The revamped headphones has since been dubbed the Porta Pro KTC (Koss Touch Control), and as far as its hardware specifications are concerned, the company revealed that it will essentially feature the same “standard setting sound performance” of the original Porta Pro that was released more than 25 years ago.

Koss will also be launching a pair of in-ear stereophones that features an interlocking design, which supposedly will allow easier on-the-go storage. The in-ear stereophones will feature 9mm drivers and will be made out aluminum and will come in two flavors – the IL100 which will be the standard in-ear stereophones, and the IL200 KTC which will be the stereophones plus an iDevice certified inline remote/mic similar to that on the Porta Pro KTC. Pricing has yet to be revealed, but Koss plans to start shipping both the Porta Pro KTC and the IL100/200 KTC in the Spring of 2012. [Company website]
