i was in love with my crushers for about 5 days....but theres a problem, they sound like shit without the bass booster and put out basically no volume, and guess what? the fucking woofers are blown from the power of an ipod MINI....sweeeet dj quality shit right there,i also like how you always forget to turn the bass booster off so it dies in a day. also the fucking clip in the back comes undone constantly and they unfold on my head, im pretty displeased that such a popular company puts out such a shit product. all i wanted was some OK headphones, nothing too great. apparently they care more about the style whores that buy them for looks than the people who just want decent quality for the seventy dollars they pay. in the future i will just buy sony or something and i advise others to do the same.

I was pleased with my Skullcandy;s while they worked. But the battery things was gay, as well as the low volume deal.

I'm thinking about getting the icons tonight though. What do you all think of them?

I gots the crushers and i still love em. No blow out speakers, the woofers chill, and actually i havent touched them in about 2 weeks since yesterday and i always leave the bass switch on and it still had life. But yeah if theres no bass then no point in using them.

I'm in the same boat, e-mailed them a week ago about a faulty wire. So much for the "48-hour" respond time bullshit. I knew they were sort of shoddy construction, they build them too style-oriented, but I I like my shit-wires, shitty-subwoofer Skull Crushers anyways. I only ever use then to listen to music off of my computer and they work perfectly for just that. They are too big to take everywhere with me. I am still pissed about the warantee thing though...

im pretty sure the hype about these headphones is due to the name of the company being "Skullcandy"

completely agreed, i got some HD212 pros for 60 bucks and love them. By all means not the best headphones, but sturdy built and pretty swell sound...far better than skullshit

skull candy is a cool company with a good attitude toward thier market, however, thier products are not that great. the audio quality is horrible.

i dont get why everyone is complaining about the headphones and continue to get skullcandys after previous problems with their headphones. Get different headphones if you dont like them

I have the proletariat noise canceling Skullcandy and  I've enjoyed them so far.   they were only $50 so i decided to buy them and try it out. they're pretty good at canceling loud bass coming from a speaker in the room, but  not as good at canceling voices.  on a windy day i used them in the car when the wind could be heard rushing by the ski rack (!) with the noise cancel on and no music playing it did pretty well getting rid of the wind noise problem.  with the volume up 3/4 way and noise cancel on I wasn't able to hear anything but my music.

uh buddy actually if you read they were the crushers which are $70 retail and he payed $50, your "$70 quality TI'S" actually retail for only 10 dollars more and sell for LESS always on ebay. you really dont know waht you are talking about.


note: my crushers are working OK now the vibration went away and i replaced the battery.
