Fly Or Die: Skullcandy Crushers
Author: Mark Jeffries
Skullcandy ’ s Crusher headphones may not be John ’ s preferred, however I need to applaud the headphone maker for stepping outside the box and doing something four with the Crusher earphones.
The Crushers don ’ t try to artificial a lot of bass with digital signal processing, however rather install 2 Sensation55 motorists (one in each ear cup) to induce a vibration system that provides the feeling of head-rattling bass. Plus, there are two REX40 drivers built in to deliver highs and mids.
I was wrong in the video when I stated there was a sub in each ear cup, and John was wrong when he stated these are awful headphones, so there are our admissions.
Sure, the Crushers use a gimmick to obtain their message across, once you strap in that battery and get to paying attention, you ’ re sure to enjoy the same reaction that we had at CES.
To be clear, the Crushers wouldn ’ t get the same kind of recommendation for me if it wasn ’ t for the $ 100 price tag slapped on to these bad boys.
For less than you spend for Beats, Sennhesier, or Bose, you could have the feeling of true, club-style bass direct to your ear, with that exact same Skullcandy style the company has actually become understood for.
These aren ’ t meant for the audiophile, artist, or DJ. Nonetheless, anyone who appreciates over-the-ear audio at an affordable rate need to check these out. They ’ ll make you seem like your walk down the road belongs of a Nicki Minaj video, and who can put a rate on that?
The Crushers come in a number of colors and are readily available in April for $ 100 at different merchants and Skullcandy.com.

Skullcandy takes another shot at gaming headsets, quietly reveals SLYR, PLYR 2 and PLYR 1
Author: Melissa Shroeder
Giving you the choice to Modify your very own Aviator headphones isn’t really the only news the trendy people at Skullcandy had up their sleeve for the end of 2012; with a bit of support from Astro Games (a just recently acquired asset), it’s also taking one more stab at games headsets. The business’s promoting 3 new designs: SLYR, PLYR 1 and PLYR 2, all of which were quietly detailed on its site within the last week. While Astro provides its full-on gaming audio systems (A30, A40 and A50) above the $ 200 mark, these Skullcandy-branded headsets essentially bring the values of those styles to more wallet-friendly prices point of $ 80 to $ 180– not to mention in closer competition with the likes of Turtle Beach and Tritton. Many particularly, Astro was fast to highlight to us that Skullcandy’s new batch of gaming-focused earblasters have actually been produced from the ground-up, unlike its designs passed which were simply tweaks to its existing– and less than well-received– headsets. Curious for the initial information on these most recent gaming audio assistances? Fortunate for you, we have actually got it all noted simply past the break.

Fly Or Die: Skullcandy Hesh Headphones [TCTV]
Author: Katie Scott
This shouldn’t be the first time you’ve seen Skullcandy’s Hesh headphones appear on TechCrunch, but I’ll forgive you if it is. As a refresh, I reviewed the cans last week and found that it really came down to like vs. love. They’re fine, but I can’t necessarily justify a $ 60-$ 70 purchase.
John felt the same way when we sat down to chat about the Hesh headphones in this latest episode of Fly or Die. But it extends far beyond that. As John would say, “friends don’t let friends buy bad headphones.”
There should really only be two choices: get yourself a cheap pair of earbuds that will last you six months, or if you really enjoy high quality sound, make a solid investment in a set of Grado or Sennheisers or “the upper echelon of headphones” and really enjoy yourself.
Either way, mid-range headphones shouldn’t even exist in our book. They offer very little in sound quality and try to make up for it with style and brand cache, like Beats.
Beats by Dr. Dre headphones certainly aren’t the best headphones on the market, but the following behind them is huge, based mainly on the fact that Dre’s name is behind them and they look cool. Beats is about status, and the very worst part is that Skullcandy doesn’t even have that going for it.
We both give them a die.

Skullcandy Supreme Sound Hesh 2.0 Headphone Review: Like Vs. Love
Author: Alexander McQueen
There’s a huge difference between like and love. I like cheese, but I love Gruyere. I like beef, but I love filet mignon. I like phones, but I love my iPhone. You get the gist.
Long story short, I really like Skullcandy’s latest pair of over-ear mid-range headphones, the Hesh 2.0.
But do I love them?
Skullcandy has been revamping its roster over the past year, including re-engineering their popular over-ear mid-range headphones. They promise “attacking bass, natural voice, and precision highs.”
Where voice and highs are concerned, Skullcandy nailed it. But “attacking bass” is an overstatement. There’s no true thud, no tangible feeling that comes along with the bass on these things. Just a low note, like any other low note.
Truth be told, I don’t feel transported to a higher plane of audio ecstasy with these things on my head, but sound quality isn’t bad by any means. I’ve been running around with an older set of Bose over-the-ears for the past few weeks and it’s hard to compete with those noise-cancelling beasts. When I put the Bose cans over my ears, all the excess sound instantly disappears. I’m in my own little suction cup of silence, until I turn on the tunes, at which point I can feel the bass buzzing through my brain.
On the other hand, the Hesh headphones are certainly loud enough for just about any setting, including a subway platform, but passersby won’t have any line of defense from your tune choices. I made the mistake of listening to “Superman” by Eminem on the crowded elevator in AOL HQ this morning at full volume — I’m sure I’m only more popular now.
I don’t get the same kind of satisfaction from the Skullcandy Hesh 2.0 as I do with my Bose cans, but I also don’t pay as much. The Skullcandy Hesh headphones only cost $ 69.99 with a mic, and $ 59.99 without, as opposed to the $ 250+ set of Bose. That said, sound quality is perfectly acceptable at this price point.
Comfort-wise, I’m pretty pleased. I wish the headphones cupped my ears a bit more tightly — feels like there is a little pocket of space that sound escapes through. The leather pillow cups are nice, weight isn’t an issue at 180g, and the soft-touch headband is properly flexible.
The Skullcandy Hesh 2.0 headphones come in a variety of color flavors, a few of which you can see below. Availability begins May 7 on Skullcandy.com.

Skullcandy Uncovers Vintage-Style iPhone Speaker Dock For $179.99
Author: Natalie Wood
Sometimes I miss old-school technology, but only on a surface level. I get all giddy every time I see an iPad stand that looks like a vintage TV set or an old-school Game Boy iPhone case. Brand new technology hidden under old-fashioned designs truly pulls at my heart strings, which is why I was so excited to see Skullcandy’s new Vandal iPhone speaker dock.
If you aren’t already familiar with Skullcandy, they make really cool skater-chic headphones for people who think of themselves as skater-chic. This time, however, Skullcandy has unveiled a retro-looking iPhone speaker dock, which conjures up images of an old guitar amp. It has three nice little knobs on the top, and a 3.5mm headphone jack, so you can basically plug just about anything in there.
Don’t let that traditional design fool you, though. The Vandal iPhone speaker dock offers more than enough audio power to keep you dancing. Under the hood you’ll find 80mm woofers and 19mm tweets, and a total output of 21 watts. Now all you have to do is scrape together $ 179.99, and you’re good to go.

Custom Skullcandy headphones look, sound great
Author: Tiffany Shoman
So Skullcandy headphones sound good, that’s pretty much a given. And while the styling is cool and everything, they seem a bit.. generic. Don’t worry though, you can get your awesome cans and be individual too. One crafty DIY person is selling customized Skullcandy SK-Pro headphones – but you better hurry, she/he is only making three pairs.
So take a plain old pair of SK-Pro’s, add some custom artwork, hand sculpted stitches, and military insignia, and you’ll have a pair of cans like only two other people in the whole world. And not only do you get a sweet pair of headphones, but the seller is also including an 8″ Lily Black customized toy to hold them. Buying these custom headphones will set you back $279.99, but what price individuality?
