Hey folks,
Just trying to find a place that sells transformers for the piece of garbage KOSS unit that I bought in Toronto...Doesn't even have a model # on it but worked well till the 10v .3 amp transformer decided to leave this world for electronic purgatory...Any ideas?? I've gone to Maddisons and got the "ahhhh, nope"

Koss makes lots of stuff, should have came with whatever doodads it would have required including a wall-wart. Contact the store where you bought it.

Since you can't find the model number, try taking a photo and posting it.

Electronics stores often sell universal replacement transformers. They tend to be pricey though. You might want to try local surplus stores or eBay for a cheaper option.

Thanks for the info guys,
might be better off going new unit.
After all, only paid $40 for the POS...Any suggestions on what to buy?
Don't need a Rolls Royce, but not a Lada either!!
