Title: Exceeded expectations
Review: My songs broke and I needed a pair to wear at work. I didn't have the money for new sonys but these were on sale for $150 so I figured I'd use these until I could get new sonys. So far the experience has been great with them so far. I work 10 hrs a night and wearing these hasn't been an issue in terms of comfort. The sonys were more comfortable but these are still up there l. The build quality feels sturdy and don't feel as if they will snap the moment you put them on your head. The noise cancelation is good but could be better as I work in a factory. It's not terrible just not the best. The Audio is great though clarity is slightly lacking as the headphones are very bass heavy though that is the selling point which is fun to listen to music that makes it feel like you have subwoofers against your head. Battery life is great, I normally wait about three days before I feel like I might need to charge them though I haven't tried to go longer with them. Fit wise they seem a bit bulky compared to some other brands that are slimmer but I think it can be overlooked.

Title: From Airport budget brand to AAA Consumer Quality
Review: I was searching around for a decent Bluetooth Music/Gaming headset. Mostly for music while i travel. I have some Sony C700 Ear Buds, they are great but I dont want to risk losing them on travel. Almost happened a few times. I was going to opt for the Sony WH-1000XM4. I know they are really good, but didnt want to drop $350 on them and I dont need the mic input. These Skullcandy Crusher ANC 2 happened to go on sale twice, luckily the 2nd time on a payday for once!!! YAY!!! Got them for around $120 instead of the $230. I have been skeptic about Skullcandy products for a long time because I kept seeing them only as the budget brand at Airports and some local stores. To my surprise they came out of that niche area and made a big name for themselves.I was a little worried as some reported the case was missing and the headset seemed used. I made sure to verify before making the purchase that it was straight from Amazon. When they arrived I was happy everyone was sealed and CIB.The headset fits comfortably and I often forget that im wearing them. Its been about 3 days since ive had them. The pictures make them seem a bit larger than they actually are in person. I have medium sized ears and these fit perfectly over them. This current session at the time of writing this, ive had these on for about 10 hours straight, jumping around between listing to music, watching a show and playing video games. My ears and my head do not hurt from long term use like most headsets tend to do. The padding is very comfortable.Audio quality is a lot better than I ever expected it to be. For Bluetooth, you usually have an above average quality compared to most RF receiver headsets. Im simply blown away with how clear, strong and deep the audio comes through.Crusher - Deep Bass feature. You want Deep Bass ACTION in your audio. This is the headset for you. The Crusher control is beyond insanity, its like having twice or 3 times the bass of Dolby Atmos in a movie theatre but wrapped around your ears. Crank it just 1/3 of the way, youll literally feel the ear cups vibrating from the bass, and its not even uncomfortable. At 1/2 way its practically an ear massager if youre watching an action movie or playing an action video game. Though at 100% Crusher, I think its a bit much as it drowns out the rest of the audio, but it may be good for something I have yet to listen to.ANC 2 - (Audio Noise Cancelling) kills about 90% of the ambient sound around you. You can barely hear your own inner vocals as you talk, thats how good it is.Battery - It came in charged at 50%. Didnt take long to charge to 100%. So using this from a full charge for 10 hours straight, ive consumed 20% battery life. So this is very accurate to the 50 Hour Capacity from a full charge.Skull-IQ App - Just like any other bluetooth companion app, it does what it needs to do. Allows for adjusting settings and updating the firmware.Bluetooth - I had issues off the bat at first when connecting to my Laptop. Nothing was found to identify the Connecting, disconnected, connected, disconnected, repeating issue. What I found was that this headset doesnt like any other Audio accessories that also use Bluetooth. So they both fight for who is in charge. I had my Turtlebeach 6000 Gen 2 receiver in my USB so they were fighting each other. Removed the receiver and resynced the SC Crushers to the bluetooth. Once i figured that out, no issues from that. However my one annoyance that I never encountered with any other Bluetooth headset is that this headset will cut all audio from the source thats primarily active (i.e. the game on my laptop) and play the notification or audio from my phone only. Once thats done, there is like 3-4 seconds of dead air before it swaps back to my games audio. Ive not experienced that with my Sony C700's. It just quiets the audio on one source temporarily.Overall these will be great for (still good for other categories but might hinder the experiences for something like Country Music wouldnt go well with this headset) -Music - Dance, Hip-Hop, R&B, RAP, Rock, Metal, POP.Movies - Action, Ambient / Atmospheric, HorrorGaming - Action, Ambient / Atmospheric, Horror, Music based, Fighting.I highly recommend the Skullcandy Crusher ANC 2.9.2/10

Title: This the review your lookin for
Review: I’ve tried the Sonys xm4s, the Bose quiet comforts, and I’ve also had the opportunity to try the 500 dollar Apple AirPod max headphones since I live with someone who uses them. These headphones for being a hundred dollars less, outperform them in every way, the only thing I will give the Bose is that the clarity of sound is good but level of volume and bass is not as prevelant or enjoyable as these headphones. From factor is great, the EQ is good, they come with transparency and ANC , have a customized sound profile . And alot of other great features, I don’t know how they will hold up and their longevity. These are the best bang for your buck headphones , my friends who have them have said they are durable and hold up well. Best headphones on the market in all ways of comparison in my opinion. Plus they come with three cables for charging which is really nice compared to Apple giving you like one USBc to usb c cable. And a carrying a case which is quite nice.

Title: WORKOUT DREAM
Review: I purchased this headset specifically with the intent to use it while working out. I mainly lift weights and am laying on a bench a lot. The bass in this headset is strong enough that if you wear it normally with the strap on the top of your head, it can vibrate off your head while in a horizontal laying position. Just rotate it a little so the strap is on to your forehead and you’re good to go. There’s still a seal for ANC and it sounds great. I’ve been using it for about a month now with no issues and I’ve not had any issues with sound quality, battery life, or anything else. It looks good, feels good and is easy to use. I got this for about 40% off but I would’ve paid full price for SURE. Great for bassheads and great for working out!

Title: Sound quality just as good as the bass
Review: The noise canceling is great, the bass adjustability is very customizable, they fit great around the head, even for us big headed people, voice controls are very quick too. The charging is crazy, only took about 10 minutes for them to go from 30 to 100, and as for the battery life.. this thing could be used on and off for about a week depending on how you use them. Only negatives I have with it is the gradual creaking from the headphone swiveling, the ai voice that tells battery percentage and all that, and the fact that you can’t have the voice controls on without the app open in the background (doesn’t happen if you’re on android). Other than that, they’re a very nice, basey pair of headphones.

Review: J’ai acheté tellements de casques et dernièrement le Sony xm5 qui ne m’a pas du tout plus..J'ai souvent étais déçu mais là j’en prend pleins les oreilles j’ai la tête qui vibre totalement et sans distorsion!! Le son est clair et très puissant au niveau des basses et elles sont très percutante!! Pour les amoureux de la musique électro,hardstyle,hardcore etc et surtout des basses puissante qui arrache la tête foncer vous ne serez pas déçus !Je porte des lunettes et ça ne gêne absolument pas 😉

Review: Also die Crusher sind der ober Hammer. Geiler Sound, die Vibrationen sind mega und geben ein absolutes top Gefühl was den Bass betrifft. Dabei keine Verzerrung oder ähnliches.In Sachen Haptik sind sie ebenfalls echt genial zu bewerten. Der Tragekomfort ist auch gegeben.Das ANC steht noch aus, wir aber am Wochenende bei einer 4 ständigen Bahnfahrt, ausgiebig getestet.In Summe: Ich kann sie nur empfehlen!

Review: Los auriculares están estupendos, en cuanto a construcción son de muy buena calidad, respecto al sonido mejoro notablemente a la versión anterior que son los Crushers EVO, el bajo es mucho más profundo, los agudos equilibrados, medios presentes en cada canción, Ojalá en un futuro sigan mejorando cada vez más el sonido ya sea con nuevas versiones o atreves de actualizaciones de software, genial!!

Review: Please buy the skullcandy crusher evo’s instead of this one! The noise canceling is terrible and with the bass of the evo’s I hear just as little. The bass is also way worse, I almost can’t feel it and the maximum bass on this one is like 20% of the evo’s. The stay aware mode doesn’t do much either. Not to mention the evo’s are also way cheaper, especially second-hand.If you really want the noise canceling and stay aware mode I recommend the AirPods Max. I haven’t had many headphones but the noise canceling and stay aware mode on them is a 10/10 for me.
