Not worth a write up, but the Koss KSC 35 Bluetooth isn't half bad for what it is. Non offensive sound, decent battery life. Jan 10, 2021

  Has anyone tried the Koss KSC 35 Bluetooth? It's on sale for BF, and seems like it would be a great option for an open workout headphone...

    Makes sense. Their classic bike appeals mainly to an aging demographic and they won't increase sales without changing.

    I don't believe so but cattle are pretty dumb so who knows. But when it comes to cats (especially large cats), they are hard wired opportunist. So different kind of instinct than what is going through a horny bull's mind. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=axcPoS2sF0E
