Earlier this month, my headphones broke. I thought this would be a good time to get some really good headphones. I went on Amazon and looked around. I finally narrowed it down to the Skullcandy Skullcrushers. Was it worth the fifty dollars I payed for them? Let' find out.
The first thing you'll realize about these headphones is the headphones themselves. They're a little snug for me, being around-ear headphones, but it's still comfortable. The top of them is rigid, which is good, but the headphones themselves are very flexible. These make the headphones seem a little uneven in durability. The flexible phones are good for putting them in the travel bag, which helps a little, but they're still sort of a pain to carry abound easily.
Headphones aren't just for wearing. You buy them for the sound. The Skullcrushers are pretty quiet. I have to turn up almost everything to hear out of them, and I can hear really well. The headphones' main driver is only 30mm. That is a normal-sized driver for headphones, and you can get ones with that driver for only fifteen dollars. However, they do have built-in sub-woofers with a separate 30mm driver and powered by a AA battery. Once you turn on the bass boost, you get a much better sound. I can hear everything in the song with the bass boost. It also has a volume control built-in, so you can level out the bass if needed, which it usually does.
Overall, if you're just a casual listener, you don't really need headphones this expensive. If you are an avid music listener, and enjoy your bass, I would consider these headphones. They are great for listening to music and watching movies with headphones, but they are pretty bulky, and the AA battery is almost required for good sound, but the fifty dollar price tag, with some headphones running over three hundred, doesn't sound too bad for high-end headphones.
