Sorry to bother, but how have they held up in the year? I'm still debating whether to buy them because a lot of Amazon reviews claim they break easily.
@Deus Vult The difference between gaming headphones and normal headphones is that gaming headphones have an extra usb bluetooth device because PS4 doesn't have bluetooth.
ive been playing bass live and did raves back in the 80s and 90s crazy bass it would shake your body im 52yrs old and my hearing is fine,its high end that does the damage
Just bought the Crusher Wireless... first impression is the bass slider is nice but sliding it down completely is the best sound. Comfortable and connected to bluetooth easily. Experienced a little bluetooth interference but then the battery seemed to die as I just unboxed them. Def glad I went w the crushers cuz the larger fit around the ear and looks are better. W the 40hr battery life I'm excited. Was in best buy listening to the BoseQC35 and Sony1000x and the Crushers seem on par with those in sound....never really needed any noise suppression so saving money I think I'm gonna be happy with these as long as the Bluetooth doesn't get interference very often. At $150 I'm pretty stoked also like the buttons are easy to find when wearing. Fingers crossed I think I lucked out finding these.
Yes you did luck out. I'm rocking with the Skullcandy Uproar Wireless right now and I really like them but I really want the Crusher Wireless pretty badly.
I'm gonna be honest man. I'm getting terrible interference anywhere outside of like 10 ft. of my macbookpro when paired... One question I have is how long does it take to charge the battery and also how can i tell the charge percentage. If I don't figure out whats happening I'll be returning but I don't want to. When I'm getting good bluetooth these are great.
I've discovered the problem i have is in my macbookpro bluetooth pairing not my iphone so I may have my computer looked at.. not sure the best bluetooth is in this 17" pro from like 2009. #likecrusher
I got the crushers and it really allowed me to understand how bass can be overpowering, I've used beats but these things literally vibrate. So if you want to hear your bass through your skull go for these. It's truly, SKULLcandy.
@@gageshippy2256 yeah but for some reason the og crusher wireless had a weird threshold for when it activates. the crusher evo is much smoother and has no threshold for activation but will not be prominent till around 60% volume when the bass tab is all the way up. if your looking for better adjustment of the bass definitely go for the evo.
I bought the Sennheiser HD 4.40. Love the immersive sound quality and the comfort! BT works like a charm and great for both music and movies! Totally digging my new cans ;-)
Just bought a Skullcandy Crusher wireless and I'm blown away by the sound quality. If you love bass you will love the Crushers no other "bass heavy" headphones even compare to these its insane. It basically sounds like a 10" sub woofer is built into the headphones its amazing!
@@Di-Ferr I agree. I have the 950bt, do not own the skullcrusher wireless, but i tested it at the airport. The bass took me to the moon. It's insane and a must buy for bass heads. Classical music people can buy other set like sennheisers or audio technica.
Once more, an amazing video. Your channel is so underrated considering the profession of the clips, editing and overall quality. Great content man! Keep it up...
For buyers who are considering buying a BT model headphone in the $150 range, have one other model to consider. The Audio Technica M50XBT, which are based from their notoriously popular M50X wired version, which some consider studio quality monitors. They aren’t a bass heavy model, but rich & balanced, and provide a more accurate soundstage. Their battery life is also about 40hrs.
And still to this day, the best 100 dollars I spent on a pair of headphones ever. I love my crushers, great for listening to all types of music thanks to adjustable bass
@@saketnaik1 they are pretty good. mine are really scratched up on one side now, but I couldn't really care about that. I have dropped them many times in these 2 years I had them and they have not broken at anyplace. Still I would not suggest dropping these as you never know when something breaks, no matter how many times they survived other previous falls. Heck you can get lucky and have something break at the first mistake (drops, hits, accidental crushes and so on). As for the battery life, it holds up still and can usually go a full week or more with it.
For 150 I got the sennheiser HD 598CS then I used an equalizer to flatten out the sound signature. It's super durable and it feels like a studio grade headset
I had a Satechi model which I paired with my iPad for listening to music and stream videos, until the damned frame broke inside the padding. Been looking for a set of wireless since, and I got some rather positive experience with the Sennheiser brand. Had a gaming headset as my first, and it was pure awesome - until one of my cats gnawed on the cable, but it was my fault to leave it around unprotected (and I still kick myself over it); then, when I bought a microphone for singing (or trying to...), I chose the Sennheiser e835 S (switch version) over the singer's standard Shure SM-57 model (and cost me 20 euros cheaper, too!). All these experiences might make me sound biased, but at the time I'm writing this comment, I can get the Sennheiser for less than 100 euros, when the Skullcandy costs 170... Damn! This review has some very valid points, which I certainly won't disregard while testing both models. Though I feel positive whichever I pick, will be an improvement over the Satechi one, which I bought on a budget - construction looks sturdier on both models here reviewed.
I bought the Sennheisers as i felt they had much better balanced sound quality with considerably more finesse. Bass was over powering and with screachy ear pearing highs with the Candy Crusher. Personal perference I guess.
Wow. Your videos are amazing. I am impatiently waiting for my birthday because I know I'll get the Crusher Wireless. Your videos make the wait even harder but I still can't stop watching. Thank you for your awesome reviews!
Ended up getting the HD 4.40 on black Friday, they blew my expectations away, Bass is rich not as banging as Crushers of-course but good & satisfying, very well balanced headphone, got them at half price & it was a major steal
I think I'll get them too, I had Sony's XB950AP for few months but the plastic just snapped in half, I was like "wtf". Sony build quality is tragic unfortunately. I hope this will be fine, I have a nice deal for it ($92 which is very good in my country with VAT)
@@hashemdharat2122 I got them and they sound pretty nice. I imagine crushers feel more like Sony's. If you like bass BUT nothing crazy, then Sennheiser's will be objectively better.
I purchased the Skullcandy headphones on sale for $129! Best headphones I’ve had by far! Only takes a 10 minute charge to get you 3 hours of playtime! Setup is a snap. They are comfy and the bass is ridiculous. Highly recommend!
I’ve been using sennheiser hd 4.40bt for a while (about 1.5 yr) and i tried the crusher too. Choose wisely coz it can cause u problems. I picked the sennheiser coz it feels like more balanced than the crusher plus i have a small head and ears. But that’s my style. I do recommend both of them. Both of them is comfy and cool so the rest depends on your opinion.
I have Crushers, they are fantastic, I also have Sennheisers HD599 and Sony MDR 1A. For the wireless headphones, i only touch crushers. For wired, the other two, one for more base heavy and one for ultimate clarity and sound stage.
@@rens3207 yes, so... your logic says something like: "let's do another review... maybe Hyundai Elantra 1990 vs Volkswagen Jetta 2020" -_- don't waste your time...
The Sennheisers are great for music, movies, and I was surprised but they have great directional sound and bass when gaming. I find myself using them over my gaming headset when I don't need a Mic
SkullCandy...Started by a snowboarder Sennheiser...Been around for ever with over 50 years experience producing some of the best headphone sound quality for the money - Ya,Im not buying SkullCandies...............EVER
Both of you are replying to comments just to make crusher look bad. Seriously how much are you paid.? If u really own those headphones then why are you still here?
@@jamesblue27 were not making anything "look bad". It's just the truth. The crushers don't have balanced sound and you know it. They do sound good but they aren't balanced. I mean their made for crazy vibrating bass not audiophile sound. So I don't know what your talking about. I bought the bose soundlink 2 and I coudnt be happier in terms of sound quality. They aren't ear shattering or hissy (like the crushers) and they have enough lows compared to the crushers that lack plenty of lows. You're just salty about the truth if you think we're hating on the crushers. Great headphones but far from perfect.
Another amazing video dude, very informative and with a high quality comparison and contrast, your channel is so amazingly professional for a small channel, nice work dude
What about the JVC HA-SZ2000 bass king? How do these compare to the skull candy. Sure the jvc needs a amp to get its full power but I just want to compare the bass at full power.
The crushers may seem to have very good build quality but they don't. After 8 months of daily use the headband broke and the speaker hinges also cracked. This is a common issue since I found multiple people complaining about the same cracked plastic issue. Thankfully their warrenty is top notch and I got tokens to buy replacement headphones without any issues. However, how long before I have the same issue?... what happens after the 2 year warrenty passes?
Thanks for the quick response. Had a chance to try them at my local Best Buy. Unfortunately the display model seemed defective and the other two Best Buy's in my area had a nonworking model. The fit feels great though and the materials feel really premium. Next step, I have to venture out of San Francisco to find a Best Buy with a working pair.
Try them both. I have. And IMO the “listening” curve is quite deep when you use the Senns after the Crushers, you tend to feel empty and hollow. I like them both but again don’t use them one after the other, like give it a day or so in between.
I got a Skullcandy Crusher Wireless... broke at the hinge within 4 weeks... I’m very careful with technology too so I doubt it was any manhandling that caused it
Youre reviews are also so complete and very interesting to see, I really aprecciate all the sutff you do to answer que troubles of asking which headphones I have to buy :)
i had to boost the mids with an eq for these to sound decent to me. the vocals felt pretty shallow, weak and not much body to them. after I did that they sound okay.
I was weighing these both up against each other myself... Went for the Sennheiser ones in the end because... Well, they're Sennheisers. I've never owned a Skullcandy set that haven't broken, and yet I've still got old Sennheiser sets that are still going strong.
Well, the way I see it: -Sennheiser HD 4.40BT is for people looking for a warm mature and inmersive high quality sound, great for music and movies, when the details and clarity matters, I can certify it after lot of hours using them in flight and long working hours. -Skullcandy is the sound for the youngers looking for strong or extreme bass and highs, unable to appreciate the balanced sounds that allow to listen to all music instruments and realistics sounds. I have used Skullcandy, and its sound is not refined.
Im struggling to pick between the Sennheiser and Sucllcandy crushers. I think the Scullcandy is more my preference sound wise because I'm a heavy bass lover, but I'm also a fan of Sennheiser.. I hear that the Scullcandy headphones will break after a few months and I'm afraid to make the wrong choice. Should I go for Scullcandy or Sennheiser?
I was bored and walking around BestBuy when I saw the headphones display with the hands-on display units, after thinking what the heck I walked over and started trying on headphones one by one, Bose, Sony, etc, and some nice expensive ones, after looking over the Crushers and thinking huh, not a name brand I've heard of, I threw them on and hit play the button on the display unit. Immediately taking them off and looking at them perplexed and saying that's not fucking possible. Best fricking bass I've heard in headphones.
Bro I have a song xb 950 ap it has also good hard hitting thumbing bass are crushers better then those? Though I have ordered a crusher for my self which is on the way , hyped AF💚😍
@@gamerrn8015 pretty much impossible for me to say cuz I've never tried those. All I can tell you is there is a slider on the side of the headphone to turn up and turn down the bass oh, I probably keep it around 5 to 10% anything more than that is just way too much Bass. Wherever you get them from I hope they have a return policy just in case you're not actually happy with them. I will add though oh, I had some very expensive high-end headphones electrostatic I believe they're called after spending a week with them I finally sold them just simply not happy with them and thinking geez my Crushers sound better.
@@WilliamDeanPlumbing I got mine on 30th September. Just amazing man. The Bass is Hard Hitting , I like to keep the bass slider around 25-30% , when the bass kicks in it shakes my skull🤣🤣🤣🤣. I am worried about the built quality , I am using it with full care bro , trying my level best to make them last 2 years or more atleast. I just love these just one thing my bass slider is a bit on the loose side it woobles around 0.3 cm , I have read reviews many have the same thing but nothing is the issue. Totally bang for the buck , my only complaint is the built quality , rest are fine.
Hi Nick I got my skullcandy crusher today because I missed my post yesterday. Sitting in my car and listening to these bad boys. The first impressions is excellent built quality and they are surprisingly very light too, The sound what can I say there is no words for it my heart start pounding when I start increasing the bass O my God what a bass and the clarity in sound was amazing. My question is, is there anything better then these become I want more. Your review was so convincing and honest I am glad I stumbled upon your video thanks mate one more happy customer and thanks 💀 🍬
paired the Crusher with an iPod source using FLAC files, the Graham Slee Voyager portable amp and a wired connection - a match made in heaven 😁. The Voyager shows the true engineering in these headphones and controls the haptic bass beautifully. It also sorts out the out-of-the-box tuning which recesses vocals and upper mids a bit too much. If you want bass and audiophile detail across the range, then these have that in them if you have a decent amp and lossless source. They'll deliver both the detail and the super powerful bass and rich luscious low-end sounds. 🙏🍻❤️
DancingCucumber read a comment fully, understand it, then open your gob to reply. You just wasted 20 seconds of my life. I've listened to audiophile stuff for years and a lot of it is plain BS and snobbery. I've also been mixing audio for years, so I know what clarity sounds like. I stand by my comments. When you have tested with the same rig, I'll take your comment more seriously.
Dancing Cucumber my comment is aimed at those worried about the quality of the sound of they want that as well as the obvious bass- focused tuning on the Bluetooth.
Nice Review - No Extra Crap... Totally on the Money with the Skull Candy Crushers... Fantastic Bass - Great Sound... Nothing Touches the bass response like Skull Candy. I listened to 20 different head phones and for the $140.00 I paid for them, they are the best bang for your buck... My son had Beats, and said they had the best bass. I let him listen to the Skull Candy Crushers and he took his back and bought the Crushers...
I have a question for you. I feel like my Crusher wireless bass is worse than it was when I got them (By worse I mean the bass is not as powerful). Is it because I'm used to the bass or because of something else? Would be glad if you could help. Good video tho!
Great, lucid, well presented and well-articulated review! You belong to a rare breed of reviewers who don't use hyperbole to describe a product yet still manage to give an exciting analysis. I am taking your advice and ordering the Skullcandy Crushers. Thanks a lot!
Hi Nick, I'm really not interested on having a huge amount of bass on my headphones, I would rather prefer a clear sound with good mids and highs...do you have any recommendations on this? I am currently thinking that skullcandy and sennheiser are both good brand options to start with. Thank you very much for the help
The sennheiser is a vocal clarity focus but crusher wireless has both vocal clarity(a bit less than Sennhieser) and the base is like u were in a disco club.
I used em for like 8 months and they started to fall apart for some reason... I really loved em, they had a great sound quality and an amazing bass but it's not worth it if they just gonna start breaking like that
Im really confused , Im in iraq and they are not available so i cant try them. I dont know which one to order without knowing how they sound like. I listen mostly to eastern music i like to hear everything in the music plus a good (but not crazy) bass. which one is for me ? the price is not a problem i can afford either.
Erbil forever buy sennheiser. I have both. Sennheiser gives you sound quality better than its price with medium bass. Skullcandy is more about bass and less on sound quality
Hey Nick can u tell me which has more detailed sound.I like bass heavy music but I also listen to very soft vocals and instruments.which one would you recommend and why?
Hello , please help me how comfortable it is if use for more than 3 hours ? how is the quality for #movie #music ? can we play music whenBatteryDead via wire ? which one is better ? should i look for bose sound link ear around headset also ? please make sure about comfort as i have normal ear size but i am consern about comfort more... cant try any of those as i need to buy online . hope its worth
Currently listening to this with my Seinheisser HD 202 headphones... Was anxious to select headphones at such high levels of price. But got all my queries cleared. Thank You. And, is the warranty period same for both of them or not?
Im trying to find moniter accurate ones with hesh 3/crusher type ear muffs but im having a hard time. My hesh 3s broke and i wanted to move up in quality but dont want bass to drown out sounds or vocals.
I ordered hesh3s and canceled the order at the last minute and got the crusher wireless instead and I'm happy. When the slider is not turned up the bass is normal and not too much..
Hey Nick! Thanks for the comparison, but I'm still confused. People praise the Sennheiser for their clarity, base and soundstage. I heard none of that going for the Crushers. But I'm still confused which to get.. Any help?
im striving for the Skullcandy's because i love adjustable bass, because i listen to rap and hip hop a lot and i use apple ear buds, the bass is alresdy really good. but when i get my hands on the skullcandy's, gee im ready for thay bass. also because i also saw them as low as $120 on amazon so yeah
3:42 don't give me that look boy
Hahaha
Senne lol
XD
xD
That was creepy
In terms of pure sound quality. The sennheisers win. In terms of bass and battery life, the crushers win.
how do you know?
spiddyman007 he doesn't.He's just assuming 😂😂
good bass is sound quality if u love bass.
on point bass is bass. sound quality is sound quality
Anime4 Mii ayy this is what I realy want to hear, thank you btw
I bought the crushers because of your review comparison with the Sony extra bass, no regrets
Good to hear! Thanks!
Sorry to bother, but how have they held up in the year? I'm still debating whether to buy them because a lot of Amazon reviews claim they break easily.
@Deus Vult isn't ps4 made by Sony itself? and their own headphones are not compatible?
@Deus Vult The difference between gaming headphones and normal headphones is that gaming headphones have an extra usb bluetooth device because PS4 doesn't have bluetooth.
too much noise leakage?
Because I love my ears and don't intend to wear hearing aids when I get old, I bought the Senn
Aids is foul.
ive been playing bass live and did raves back in the 80s and 90s crazy bass it would shake your body im 52yrs old and my hearing is fine,its high end that does the damage
Highs does the damage. Low frequencies does not. The sensory hairs in the ear loses sensitivity with high pitched sounds.

Great review, it really helped me a lot into purchasing my Sennheiser 4.40 BT
Thank you for taking the time to review such magnificant headphones
How is it dude
Trash
I own both of the headphones and honesly I like sannheisers better because of the sound quality the crushers are good but they have artificial bass
agree the sennheisers are FARRRRR better quality than the skullcandys.
Which one to buy JBL Live 500BT or Sennheiser HD 4.40BT ? How's the base in these , is it too low ? How compared to JBL Live 500..?
How's the bass in these.. is it too low ?
For buyers who are considering buying a BT model headphone in the $150 range, have one other model to consider. The Audio Technica M50XBT, which are based from their notoriously popular M50X wired version, which some consider studio quality monitors. They aren’t a bass heavy model, but rich & balanced, and provide a more accurate soundstage. Their battery life is also about 40hrs.
The Crusher Wireless are amazing. Didn't believe it until I tried them. Thanks man, you helped me a lot in deciding to get them. 👍
That's awesome to hear, glad you like them and thanks for watching!
Nick Capaccio is the bass deeper than the solo 2?
on point In my opinion the solo 2 sounds like the crusher wireless without bass boost (I have them both)
beats are 2nd to these headphones. And skullcandy is $50 cheaper, also look better
They broke now arent they?
Am I the only one that feels like he's staring into my very soul when he shows how the headphones look on himself
And still to this day, the best 100 dollars I spent on a pair of headphones ever. I love my crushers, great for listening to all types of music thanks to adjustable bass

I agree with u. The crushers have too much treble with almost no lows. I got them
Both of you are replying to comments just to make crusher look bad. Seriously how much are you paid.? If u really own those headphones then why are you still here?
@@jamesblue27 were not making anything "look bad". It's just the truth. The crushers don't have balanced sound and you know it. They do sound good but they aren't balanced. I mean their made for crazy vibrating bass not audiophile sound. So I don't know what your talking about. I bought the bose soundlink 2 and I coudnt be happier in terms of sound quality. They aren't ear shattering or hissy (like the crushers) and they have enough lows compared to the crushers that lack plenty of lows. You're just salty about the truth if you think we're hating on the crushers. Great headphones but far from perfect.
@@zthreetwo9874 you understand low frequency is bass?
@@saibow Crushers have fake bass so it's not really lows.
Great comparison. Keep up the great work!
Thanks!
Another amazing video dude, very informative and with a high quality comparison and contrast, your channel is so amazingly professional for a small channel, nice work dude
Very balanced review mate. I'm gonna look at the Skullcandy ones.
Thanks!
One question about the Crushers, is there any trick to lessen the heat and ear sweating from the pads?
You can probably replace the ear cups
Live in Antarctica
How well do you think the Crushers would hold up at the gym?
I'm going to get the crushers this thanksgiving, you convinced me, thanks!!!
What about the JVC HA-SZ2000 bass king? How do these compare to the skull candy. Sure the jvc needs a amp to get its full power but I just want to compare the bass at full power.
Great review. Appreciate the detailed comparison. Thanks!
Great video man, went for the sennhiser thanks too your video, thanks.
The crushers may seem to have very good build quality but they don't. After 8 months of daily use the headband broke and the speaker hinges also cracked. This is a common issue since I found multiple people complaining about the same cracked plastic issue. Thankfully their warrenty is top notch and I got tokens to buy replacement headphones without any issues. However, how long before I have the same issue?... what happens after the 2 year warrenty passes?
I think I would go with the seinheissers
levi Dauerheim agreed
Double agreed
Triple agreed
Quadruple agreed

Listening with sennheiser 4.40bt
it is nice bro? bcs im want to buy these one
Getting the Senny's soon I hope before Xmas. Be pairing them with my S5 and a Avantree Bluetooth dongle which both have aptX :-)
How were they ?
I am getting the Skullcandy Crusher thank you
Let me know what you think of them!
john smith I have them and I'm using them right now and it's worth the price
How are they holding up? I'm thinking of getting them.
john smith you stupid
Skullcandy breaks very easily.
Anyone not like the Crushers? The bass just sound too artificial to me. Maybe it’s just me tho...
Nope. U r damn right.
That's exactly what I'm looking for and I love it lol
@@praveenchandran4403 check out the new crusher wireless 360 , True Bass man
Me too
I was looking for this comparison. How does the soundstage and separation compare between the two?
They both have a nice wide soundstage with good stereo separation, they honestly sound equal in that regard.
Thanks for the quick response. Had a chance to try them at my local Best Buy. Unfortunately the display model seemed defective and the other two Best Buy's in my area had a nonworking model. The fit feels great though and the materials feel really premium. Next step, I have to venture out of San Francisco to find a Best Buy with a working pair.
You like the look of the crusher? They have two wires just sticking out! For that reason alone I’d buy the sennheiser’s. I already did, actually.
Alex Trlin I think the exposed wires look cool
Alex Trlin Is it comfortable?
Try them both. I have. And IMO the “listening” curve is quite deep when you use the Senns after the Crushers, you tend to feel empty and hollow. I like them both but again don’t use them one after the other, like give it a day or so in between.
I got a Skullcandy Crusher Wireless... broke at the hinge within 4 weeks... I’m very careful with technology too so I doubt it was any manhandling that caused it
It was you, dude
@@kenbee1957 Except many many reviews state the same thing? lol
hey your videos are very professional.should i get the sennhiser 4.50 OR sony xb950n1 . both are bass active noise cancelling
ThumbNail Skullcandu Crusher Wireless :)
Sverige Pojke the skullcandy have no acive noise cancelling
ThumbNail xb950n1
Back at it with a great review. Nice review!
Thanks man!
Best comparison review of the Crushers. Thanks for awesome work!
Youre reviews are also so complete and very interesting to see, I really aprecciate all the sutff you do to answer que troubles of asking which headphones I have to buy :)
i had to boost the mids with an eq for these to sound decent to me. the vocals felt pretty shallow, weak and not much body to them. after I did that they sound okay.
I guess this is the closest I will get to a Skullcandy Hesh 3 VS Sennheiser HD 4.40BT😑
Lewis Li no it’s not
From what I heard hesh 3s are fragile as fuck
lhill8181 yeah. Mine broke because I dropped them about 4-5 feet...
Hesh 3 Fragile but better than beats
I was weighing these both up against each other myself... Went for the Sennheiser ones in the end because... Well, they're Sennheisers. I've never owned a Skullcandy set that haven't broken, and yet I've still got old Sennheiser sets that are still going strong.
That’s all what I think after I try the crusher. The massive bass of it sounds so fkin great!!
Just bought the Sennheiser HD 4.40 at sale on my country for 65. It was a no brainer.
Well, the way I see it:
-Sennheiser HD 4.40BT is for people looking for a warm mature and inmersive high quality sound, great for music and movies, when the details and clarity matters, I can certify it after lot of hours using them in flight and long working hours.
-Skullcandy is the sound for the youngers looking for strong or extreme bass and highs, unable to appreciate the balanced sounds that allow to listen to all music instruments and realistics sounds. I have used Skullcandy, and its sound is not refined.
Im struggling to pick between the Sennheiser and Sucllcandy crushers. I think the Scullcandy is more my preference sound wise because I'm a heavy bass lover, but I'm also a fan of Sennheiser.. I hear that the Scullcandy headphones will break after a few months and I'm afraid to make the wrong choice. Should I go for Scullcandy or Sennheiser?
Yes Skullcandy is a very nice American company. Set in Utah, global distribution! You pay a ton but it’s worth every cent!
I was bored and walking around BestBuy when I saw the headphones display with the hands-on display units, after thinking what the heck I walked over and started trying on headphones one by one, Bose, Sony, etc, and some nice expensive ones, after looking over the Crushers and thinking huh, not a name brand I've heard of, I threw them on and hit play the button on the display unit. Immediately taking them off and looking at them perplexed and saying that's not fucking possible. Best fricking bass I've heard in headphones.
Bro I have a song xb 950 ap it has also good hard hitting thumbing bass are crushers better then those? Though I have ordered a crusher for my self which is on the way , hyped AF💚😍
@@gamerrn8015 pretty much impossible for me to say cuz I've never tried those. All I can tell you is there is a slider on the side of the headphone to turn up and turn down the bass oh, I probably keep it around 5 to 10% anything more than that is just way too much Bass. Wherever you get them from I hope they have a return policy just in case you're not actually happy with them. I will add though oh, I had some very expensive high-end headphones electrostatic I believe they're called after spending a week with them I finally sold them just simply not happy with them and thinking geez my Crushers sound better.
@@WilliamDeanPlumbing Let's see. I want that deep hard hitting bass with Shaking Trebble 💚😍. I love bass
@@gamerrn8015 when you get time leave a comment let us know what you thought.
@@WilliamDeanPlumbing I got mine on 30th September. Just amazing man. The Bass is Hard Hitting , I like to keep the bass slider around 25-30% , when the bass kicks in it shakes my skull🤣🤣🤣🤣. I am worried about the built quality , I am using it with full care bro , trying my level best to make them last 2 years or more atleast.
I just love these just one thing my bass slider is a bit on the loose side it woobles around 0.3 cm , I have read reviews many have the same thing but nothing is the issue. Totally bang for the buck , my only complaint is the built quality , rest are fine.
Good video. But how is the build quality top notch when it creaks?
How about Skullcandy Hesh 3?
Hi Nick I got my skullcandy crusher today because I missed my post yesterday. Sitting in my car and listening to these bad boys. The first impressions is excellent built quality and they are surprisingly very light too, The sound what can I say there is no words for it my heart start pounding when I start increasing the bass O my God what a bass and the clarity in sound was amazing. My question is, is there anything better then these become I want more.
Your review was so convincing and honest I am glad I stumbled upon your video thanks mate one more happy customer and thanks 💀 🍬
john smith how are they holding up?
Are the crusher wireless still good?
i have the skullcandy crusher wireless and its definitly worth its price
the battery is beyond amazing and the base is completely controllabe
shahzaib ahmad how are they holding up?
i'm wondering how the crusher wireless is compared to the beats studio wireless in terms of bass and clarity?
Use the equalizers and effects in the sennheiser CapTune app
paired the Crusher with an iPod source using FLAC files, the Graham Slee Voyager portable amp and a wired connection - a match made in heaven 😁. The Voyager shows the true engineering in these headphones and controls the haptic bass beautifully. It also sorts out the out-of-the-box tuning which recesses vocals and upper mids a bit too much. If you want bass and audiophile detail across the range, then these have that in them if you have a decent amp and lossless source. They'll deliver both the detail and the super powerful bass and rich luscious low-end sounds. 🙏🍻❤️
Mark Phillips Crushers are not audiophile headphones they are not balanced at all the bass overpowers everything
DancingCucumber read a comment fully, understand it, then open your gob to reply. You just wasted 20 seconds of my life.
I've listened to audiophile stuff for years and a lot of it is plain BS and snobbery. I've also been mixing audio for years, so I know what clarity sounds like. I stand by my comments. When you have tested with the same rig, I'll take your comment more seriously.
Dancing Cucumber my comment is aimed at those worried about the quality of the sound of they want that as well as the obvious bass- focused tuning on the Bluetooth.
Mark Phillips If it was a waste of your time why did you even comment then. And you will not change my opinion i dont like how they sound.
@@dancingcucumber9183 I replied for the sake of other people not caught up in the audiophile BS
Nice Review - No Extra Crap... Totally on the Money with the Skull Candy Crushers... Fantastic Bass - Great Sound... Nothing Touches the bass response like Skull Candy. I listened to 20 different head phones and for the $140.00 I paid for them, they are the best bang for your buck... My son had Beats, and said they had the best bass. I let him listen to the Skull Candy Crushers and he took his back and bought the Crushers...
I have a question for you. I feel like my Crusher wireless bass is worse than it was when I got them (By worse I mean the bass is not as powerful). Is it because I'm used to the bass or because of something else? Would be glad if you could help. Good video tho!
Great, lucid, well presented and well-articulated review! You belong to a rare breed of reviewers who don't use hyperbole to describe a product yet still manage to give an exciting analysis. I am taking your advice and ordering the Skullcandy Crushers. Thanks a lot!
I am really confused between these two...any suggestions which one should I buy??
This or the mdr-950n1?
listening using the mdr 950bt
Same lol
I wonder what the difference is between the crusher evo's?
Hi Nick, I'm really not interested on having a huge amount of bass on my headphones, I would rather prefer a clear sound with good mids and highs...do you have any recommendations on this? I am currently thinking that skullcandy and sennheiser are both good brand options to start with. Thank you very much for the help
Ale Marquez Herrera hesh3
Thanks for your work Nick!
Thanks for watching!
Hey Nick.! Can you please do a review on the 40$ brainwavz hm2 headphones?
Urbanite XL, HD400S, or H4.30G, which is better?
The sennheiser is a vocal clarity focus but crusher wireless has both vocal clarity(a bit less than Sennhieser) and the base is like u were in a disco club.
Hi someone that used the crusher for more then 3 month?
I heared a lot of complain about same build quality.
I used em for like 8 months and they started to fall apart for some reason... I really loved em, they had a great sound quality and an amazing bass but it's not worth it if they just gonna start breaking like that
I need help I try to putt the blue tooth on my Samsung s6 but it's not working for the seinnheiser
Im really confused , Im in iraq and they are not available so i cant try them. I dont know which one to order without knowing how they sound like. I listen mostly to eastern music i like to hear everything in the music plus a good (but not crazy) bass. which one is for me ? the price is not a problem i can afford either.
Erbil forever buy sennheiser. I have both. Sennheiser gives you sound quality better than its price with medium bass. Skullcandy is more about bass and less on sound quality
Buy it in amazon, if they dont ship it to your country then use 3rd party shipping like shipping cart. Google other info
Hey Nick can u tell me which has more detailed sound.I like bass heavy music but I also listen to very soft vocals and instruments.which one would you recommend and why?
can i mix my music with the Sennheiser I see it going for $80
Hello ,
please help me how comfortable it is if use for more than 3
hours ? how is the quality for #movie #music ? can we play music
whenBatteryDead via wire ? which one is better ? should i look for bose sound link ear around headset also ? please make sure about comfort as i have normal ear size but i am consern about comfort more... cant try any of those as i need to buy online . hope its worth
Currently listening to this with my Seinheisser HD 202 headphones... Was anxious to select headphones at such high levels of price. But got all my queries cleared. Thank You. And, is the warranty period same for both of them or not?
Seems like most people are into heavy bass and are unable to recognize the sound quality of the HD 4.40.
Hahaha very true.
Cedric West i know what the fuck!?!???
For some reason the crusher wireless I bought has a different box and I can't find anyone unboxing the same one
Im trying to find moniter accurate ones with hesh 3/crusher type ear muffs but im having a hard time. My hesh 3s broke and i wanted to move up in quality but dont want bass to drown out sounds or vocals.
I ordered hesh3s and canceled the order at the last minute and got the crusher wireless instead and I'm happy. When the slider is not turned up the bass is normal and not too much..
Hey Nick! Thanks for the comparison, but I'm still confused. People praise the Sennheiser for their clarity, base and soundstage. I heard none of that going for the Crushers. But I'm still confused which to get.. Any help?
which one should i buy i need base and comfort
im striving for the Skullcandy's because i love adjustable bass, because i listen to rap and hip hop a lot and i use apple ear buds, the bass is alresdy really good. but when i get my hands on the skullcandy's, gee im ready for thay bass. also because i also saw them as low as $120 on amazon so yeah
can you do a mic test on the Skullcandy Crusher ???
