Bought these today to have to work. listens a lot to hip hop / rap / rnb but also much else mixed. bought them when I think many kids I had previously had too bad pressure in the base. Will return these tomorrow after work.

The sound of doom goes BOOM BOOM BOOM

The Skullcandy Crusher promises bass you can feel, and that's exactly what it delivers. With the bass driver turned to max, music certainly loses some of its texture; upper notes on guitars, flutes, and the like really get lost in the shuffle. And there are other bones to pick, too.

Other than a small Skullcandy skull logo on either side of the headband, the design flourishes are kept to a minimum—most of the language printed on the outer panels can only be seen from up close, and at an angle, it seems to disappear.

The Skullcandy Crusher ANC headphones deliver seriously enhanced, adjustable bass levels with haptic feedback, but you can get stronger noise cancellation for the price.

Powerful audio performance with adjustable bass depth and haptic vibration; Solid mic clarity; Can be used passively with included audio cable

Expensive; Merely decent noise cancellation; Sound signature is far from accurate

Great if you have a small to medium head and love bass over all else, but otherwise not worth the money

Very powerful bass
