Skullcandy SCS-SC Skullcrusher Subwoofer Stereo Headphones (Green) Reviews
There is only one "feeling" you get out of this that makes every bass line from every song seem the same. I bought these for $30 and I still think I got ripped off. The vibrating bass is really cool at first. The battery life is very poor as well. I thought these were really cool when I first got them.
Bottom line they are cool at first, then you realize how much of a novelty they are. Real bass has different frequencies. They are alright for playing games or watching movies but definitely not for music. When the vibration is turned off, there is absolutely no low end at all. Then you realize that the overall sound quality is very poor.
The vibration does not compare to real bass. If you are looking for good sound, look somewhere else. Its all highs and mids.
I also compose Digital Tracks using studio software on my laptop. My purchase price was $49.42 (in store) in 2005. I just ordered another pair for $50 (including shipping). Although they list for as high as 70, I wouldn't pay more than 50. I also owned a pair of Skullcandy Ink'd buds, which I would probably recommend for portable listening (strong bass, compact design, gold plated plug etc). .
Otherwise, stick with the original SC's for $50 or less. The attention to fit and finish is lacking, and the inline subwoofer controller literally looked like it was pieced together with crazy glue. Brief summary: The Skullcandy crushers are a unique looking pair of studio headphones with the added twist of a build in subwoofer. They look and feel incredibly cheap. I wasn't expecting much in the way of sound quality, but I was curious about the built in subwoofer. Review: I'm a musician whos primary instrument is Bass Guitar. The build in subwoofer was as advertised, delivering a major kick to the lows of my bass guitar and digital dance tracks. The mids and highs weren't lacking either, and all around, I was unexpectedly surprised.
Recently, my pair was stolen along with some other stuff, which brought me back online to purchase another. I owned a pair of Skullcandy SCS-SC's (Green, first model) about three years ago and used them primarily for listening sessions via direct amp connection. I expected to find them for much cheaper, but I guess the demand is still strong. If you're willing to shell out the extra 20-30 dollars, Skullcandy has since released another series of crushers with much better construction and stronger bass amplification. I originally paid $29.95 (in 2007) for these buds, but thankfully found a replacement for 10 bucks right here on amazon. As far as the physical design of the Skullcrushers, my inital impression was poor.
Construction is cheap, sound quality isn't. Again, surprisingly, they actually managed to hold up for three years despite the cheap design (although to be honest, I do not use them for portable listening and tend to take good care of my electronics). Surprisingly, the sound was actually pretty decent. I'm not a gamer, so I can't comment on that, but I'll say they're Great for rock, dance and hip-hop music listeners as well as musicians who need a cheap pair of stereo-phones with strong bass and noise cancellation capability.
I think these are the best headphones I've ever had they were everything I thought they would be.
while overall, the triports were more comfortable and sounded better, these are actually a better option if you listen to bass heavy music mostly on a portable mp3 player. so after much debate i finally decided on these.
the skullcrushers are a different story. the sound was still great but the bass was mostly gone. i had a pair of bose tri ports for years that i loved, but the left ear piece started fading out and i couldn't use them any more.
they have lots of bass & thump through a portable. the one thing that bugged me about the triports was when i listened straight through my computer, the bass was amazing & pure, but on an ipod it was minimal. if you listen directly through your stereo or computer, go with a higher end headphone without the added bass feature.
product is amazing except the bass hum when on high other then that playing games and listening to music with these bad boys kick butt
