Mix Master: Stack Approved: Skullcandy's NBA Mix Master Headphones
September 4, 2012
Stack.com
As long-term fans of Skullcandy's headphones, we have watched the brand's products evolve into the higher-end category. With so many over-the-ear headphone choices, we like to put our money where it counts: sound quality. Fortunately, this is where Skullcandy's NBA Mix Master headphones really deliver—big time.
Read More...Designed in collaboration with the Beastie Boys’ DJ Mix Master Mike, the headphones carry a well-balanced sound that’s both full and dynamic. There’s plenty of bass, but not so much that it overpowers the rest of the sound. Created the DJ in mind, the 'phones feature a mute switch in the ear bud; a coiled cord with a plug that screws into either ear; and a twisting ear pad that switches the sound from stereo to mono to make it easier to match beats.
As for the physical design, the headphones are admittedly bulky. But, with a price tag of $300, sturdy construction is preferable over something more fragile. Other features we dig: the high-gloss finish on the hardware, the cushy ear pads and NBA team logos. In addition to the Celtics version we reviewed, NBA Mix Master headphones are available for fans of the Bulls, Knicks and Lakers.
The one drawback we can't help notice is the price. However, if the construction holds up and the sound quality is maintained, NBA Mix Master headphones are a good long-term investment. Purchase yours at skullcandy.com. -
Mix Master Review: Mix Master Mike DJ Headphones
May 7, 2012
Wired Magazine
Big idea: Match a headphone manufacturer with a music industry big-wig. Co-develop an exciting, new, cross-branded audio product.
Read More...Price it somewhere between OMG and WTF. Repeat until everyone’s so rich they’re barfing up diamonds and using Benjamins to flambé their Crêpes Suzette.
This is the formula being employed by seemingly every youth-market musical artist looking to repeat the magical success of Beats by Dre headphones, (which, by the way, had nothing to do with sound quality and everything to do with savvy marketing).The latest pair of celebriphones come from Mix Master Mike, the hip-hop DJ best known as the guy who usurped Hurricane’s seat as the fifth Beastie Boy — the fourth Beastie being Mark Ramos-Nishita, naturally.
Now, I’ve seen so many of these collabo-phones cross my desk in the last couple of years, I’m almost at the point where I’m mailing them back without even opening the boxes. But I set aside my cynicism to take a look at the Mix Master Mikes. They’re made specifically for DJ use, and I was curious enough about them to test them out. Granted, I’m only a weekend warrior on the turntables, but it’s a hobby I take seriously enough to have formed some opinions about what makes a piece of gear gig-worthy.
To make his cans, the Mix Master teamed up with Skullcandy, the company that’s rapidly branching out from cheap, day-glo earbuds for the BMX set to higher-end, higher-priced hardware for more discerning listeners. These headphones are exemplary of Skullcandy’s new direction — they’re smartly designed, the sound is well-balanced and they have an appropriately eyebrow-raising $300 price tag.
The MMMs have some very cool DJ-specific features, my favorite being a trick that switches the headphones from stereo to mono when you twist one of the earpads, dumping both the right and left channels into the driver that’s still over your ear. This is handy for beat matching or cueing up a crossfade, as it gives you a better idea of how well the track you’ve got on deck will sit with the track that’s currently playing. To that end, there’s also a mute switch nestled into one of the ear cups that kills the sound in the cans so you can hear the room. You can just flip the switch on and off to monitor the sound without removing the whole assembly.
The last bit of DJ-friendly business is a coiled cord with a plug that securely screws into the either the left or right ear.
They sound great. Everything is nice and loud with just enough percussion and bass up-front, just what you need for a gig at Coachella (or in my case, the Monday night microbrew happy hour). They also performed equally well at my desk at work. They can’t compete with the sound signature of my Audio-Technica ATH-M50 studio monitors, but they aren’t too overbearing in any of the frequencies. They’re a bit too bulky to wear around town, but if you want to, you can swap in a mobile-ready cable with an inline mic/remote. Also, they’re very comfortable, and light enough to wear all day.The reason they’re light is because of the all-plastic construction, and that’s actually one of their drawbacks. During a gig, there’s a lot of head-turning, waist-bending and moving around, and every time something would brush against one of the thin plastic earcups, it would translate into a loud, jarring KNOCK an inch from my ear. All headphones make noise when you bump them, but the MMM’s thin plastic earcups sound like you’re holding a red keg cup over your ear and thwacking it with your finger.
Another thing about all that plastic: it makes them feel cheap and flimsy. And after roughly two months of irregular use, my loaner pair is already starting to show signs of wear.
Finally, there’s the $300 list price, which is twice as much as a pair of Shure SRH750 or Technics RP-DH1200 DJ headphones, both of which are excellent in every way. I don’t think I’d be stretching it to say the MMMs are egregiously overpriced.
So if you’re at the level in your DJ career where each needle drop earns you the equivalent of one house payment, these headphones are a luxe, feature-rich joy. Otherwise, stick with the warhorse set of over-ears that’ll still be going strong three or four New Years Eve gigs from now.WIRED Some very smart DJ-friendly features. Removable cable can plug into either ear. Foldable design and hard-shell carrying case for supreme portability. Leather is soft and lush. Weight and comfort are aces. Bay area represent!
TIRED The rent is too damn high. So’s the amount of thin plastic in the design. Big silver skulls on the ears and the giant Skullcandy logo on the headband are kind of tacky. -
Mix Master: Celebrity Headphone Deathmatch
December 11, 2011
Publication: InnerFidelity.com
For the last ten years Skullcandy has been making inroads into the youth cultures. By placing inexpensive and colorful headphones in skateboard, surf, bicycle, and other action sport shops, and by selling headphones like fashion accessories (think sunglasses), I think they've been largely responsible for developing pop-culture's view that headphones are cool.
Read More...This is an enormous accomplishment, and they've profited well from it. In 2010 they were ranked as the number two headphone maker in the U.S. with 14% of the market, second only to Sony with 23%.
The problem a headphone enthusiast like me has with Skullcandy is that historically their products are about style, not sound quantity. That has been changing significantly of late, and Skullcandy has really impressed me with some of their new products. I've spent some time talking to managers there, and I hope to visit their facility soon because a lot is going on. Skullcandy has been making some moves.They've brought their design and R&D in-house, and will now be an ODM manufacturer. I talked with Jamie Oman (VP of Product Development, R&D, Quality), who explained they were aware of the perception that their products were flashy and cheap, but they were taking major steps to improve product build and sound quality. Controlling product as an ODM from inception to finished manufacture is really the only way to accomplish that.
Skullcandy has recently pumped up their design and development capacity by staffing development teams and building the acoustic labs they'll need to produce high quality product. I must say that I'm mighty impressed with the first two products launched under this new ODM effort.
Skullcandy Mix Master ($299)
In my opinion, these are the best sounding celebrity headphone. Though I'm not really a fan of the Darth Vader styling, I am a fan of their comfortable fit, decent isolation, and great sound. The've also got numerous DJ features including: mute button; mono when cups are turned; and DJ cable. An iPhone compatable cable is also included. If you're in the market for a celebrity headphone, I'd say these, and the V-Moda V-80, are the ones to get.
If you're not particularly interested in celebrity cans, I find the Shure SRH840 and Audio Technica ATH-M50 better sounding and isolating sealed headphones, and less expensive as well. For DJs, I'd say the Pioneer HDJ2000 and Sennheiser HD 25-1 II are close, but not quite as good sounding. The Beyerdynamic DT 1350 bests them to my ears.

I have had this before but this color scheme is so crazy I cant stop starting at them. I had an earlier edition of the mixmaster and these sound much better. Not saying the other ones were bad but I feel there is a slight improve on sound. The bass is stronger in this pair. It also seems the structure is better in this pair than my other pair.

COULDN'T ASK FOR A BETTER MORE STYLISH HEADPHONE
December 5th, 2012
by Khalid
I must say these are the best headphones ive ever heard. Beats by dre studio headphones sound HORRIBLE compared to these headphones! The mixmasters are so well balanced in sound and sound excelent when listening to any genre of music. They have nice thumping bass that will sound good with any hip-hop song. The bass is powerful enough for people who love bass yet it doesn't interfere with the sound quality of the song. The vocals are clear and crisp as if you were in the studio with the artist. And since Ive been listening to these headphones, ive heard instruments in the background of a song that ive never heard before. Its exactly what the artist entended you to hear. The style of these headphones are great and it has a ton of features for DJ's! And last but not least they don't leak sound and don't let sound in! You could be in a quiet room and the person next to you can barely hear the song at max volume. Or you could be in a club, loud car, or around a lot of traffic and it will drown out all the noise around you! Trust me their worth saving up for... BOTTOM LINE I RECOMMEND THIS PRODUCT TO EVERYONE!!

A critique on my Favorite cans ever.
September 30th, 2012
by Andrew
I absolutely love the sound and design. These are my absolute favorite headphones ever. The features are great, and it's clear that a lot of thought was put into making these an undisputedly incredible set of headphones. They sound great on all levels of the spectrum. The bass has minimal distortion, the mids are bright, and the swivel-mono and mute features were well thought out. Now I'm gonna be nit picky: >There are two places where the Aviators are clearly better: the cable length (not counting the DJ cable) and the ear cup shape. MixMasters are comfortable to wear, but many people don't like having their ears touch the end of the 'ear wells." The cable (with the Mic3) is is too long for a cable made for everyday use with an iPods and laptop. >The top of the headband cracked one day as I was putting them on my head. Definitely need to find a way to prevent that. Ya, lifetime warranty (totally awesome), but I don't want to have to use it within 2 months- ya know? >White. Y'all need to sell a white set of MMs in-house

So close to perfect!!!
August 9th, 2012
by Jesse LaJoie
The sound embarrases all the "Beats by dre", "soul by ludacris", "Bose", and every other major brand I have listened to. The sound is flawless, at first I wished they had more bass because its more of a soothing, smooth, but powerful bass. But I later learned that that made for well rounded headphones whether it's country, Rap, Pop, ect.... But if you want them to hit hard, bass boost all your music and it's like two 12's sittin on your ears. The 50mm Mylars are amazing. They'll handle any volume you throw at them without blowing. The cable for these headphones are litreally bombproof! Ive had this same cable for an entire year and it's untouched condition, as to where the "beats by dre" cable would look like a cougar had tried to eat it after a year of use. The style of the Mix master all black is just sick.. There isn't another headphone that can compete with it's clean appearance. Now, the ONE problem with these headphones... after about a year of gentle use, I noticed two small cracks accross my headband. But remember, i used these everyday. But never dropped, scratched, or mistreated them. Overall, these are the best headphones on the market by far.

Exceptional when they aren't broken..
August 6th, 2012
by Jake Chernicky
When I first recieved my MixMasters, I was blown away. The quality was amazing, the sound quality was unparalleled by it's opponents, and the overall package was just perfect. However, it does have it's flaws. After wearing the headphones for an hour, you really start to realize how snug they are. You start to get uncomfortable with them and need a ten minute break. Its a small flaw, but it's still one. The comfort is great for short periods of time. The only other flaw I could find is quite large. One day, I was putting on my MixMasters just like I normally would when I heard a rather loud popping sound. Thats when I knew they cracked. Upon inspection, I found that there were two small cracks in the headband. Keep in mind that I baby these headphones. They still look new. Anyways, I'm just dissappointed by the cracking. I just shipped them back and I am expecting a replacement. Overall, they are very good headphones. I would deffinitly reccommend these. I would of given five stars if they were still solid.

Great Buy
June 30th, 2012
by Chris Ghein
Overall I am more than satisfied with my Mix Masters. The Sound Quality is far beyond what I expected after having owned multiple Skullcandy headphones. The Dynamics of the sound is amazing, it makes the sound feel as though its around you and not just being pumped right into your ears. You can hear the depth in the music and vocals and highs are crisp and clear. The low mids/bass aren't thumping and vibrating like skullcrushers, but they are clean and precise and you won't miss a note. The memory foam headband and earpads are ludicrously comfortable; in fact as I am typing this I've been wearing my MMM for 3 hours straight and I do not plan on stopping any time soon. I might not be a DJ but I can see the usefulness of the dual inputs, mute button, coil cable, swivel to mono, and replaceable ear pads (that is why they are call "encore pads"). The coil cable is indestructible and feels super high quality. The additional mobile straight cable with Mic3 would be great but the volume controls do not work with my Samsung Galaxy Player. The plug ins are snug and sturdy and the cables are great quality. Cons, these things feel cheap. The polycarbonate (plastic) construction does not feel durable or tough, however I have owned these phones for a good 4 months and after taking some abuse they aren't showing any signs of wear. The aluminum frame holding it all together underneath is lightweight, flexible, and very durable. As far as build quality goes I have to give it a 3.5/5 only because of the plastic. Sound: best I have heard in a long time Comfort: never worn a pair of headphones like them Build quality: meh, but they hold up well Features: great and thoughtful, good for anyone Overall: Best Skullcandies I have owned (Aviators, SK pros, Hesh, Skullcrushers, titans, ink'd, smokin' buds, the fix) , won't replace them for a long time.

So I received my Red Mix Masters on Friday and wore them on a flight to Miami this morning. I had 3 different people ask me about them. These are one of the hottest looking headphones on the market, and people will notice. I had tried a pair of MM's before but I was pleasantly surprised with the sound isolation, I barely heard the plane take off and when I listened at full volume the person next to me couldn't hear (yeah, I asked). Overall I give these a perfect rating. My only complaint is that Skullcandy didn't come out with cool colors much sooner.

So, there's my two cents, but if you really want to be happy with your purchase, try them both out first! :)
But all joking aside, if you like the bass, the Beats are slightly more juiced there than the Mix Masters. But in every other aspect I can think of, the Mix Masters take this one by a long shot.
P.S. If you are wanting to drop $300 on a pair of headphones, I recommend looking at every aspect of the music, not only the bass.
Answers
The music that the MM are good for is virtually anything. I listen to The Beatles, Skrillex, Linkin Park, Philip Wesley, Tom Petty, and Explosions in the Sky and they all sound great.
The bass is right where it should be, not overpowering, but there enough to where when you play some Dubstep, you can happily jam away without feeling like you are missing out. The range on these headphones is amazing and you miss nothing in any song. The highs are there just as much as the mids and lows.

Will skullcandy ever make the mixmaster bands out of metal so I don't have to go without headphones every time I rma them because there are cracks?
Answers
I have had mine since the release and they work great and have never had a crack. I have dropped them a time or two, but no damage other than purely cosmetic.
Also, I believe that Skullcandy does back this issue with the warranty policy 100%... If the damage is minimal and the band cracks, you get another pair for free.
So my recommendation; be more careful. If you are willing to drop $300 on headphones, then treat them as you would to any high quality purchase you make.

Do the Mix master headphones come with a cable compatible with iDevices?

Answers
So, there's my two cents, but if you really want to be happy with your purchase, try them both out first! :)
But all joking aside, if you like the bass, the Beats are slightly more juiced there than the Mix Masters. But in every other aspect I can think of, the Mix Masters take this one by a long shot.
P.S. If you are wanting to drop $300 on a pair of headphones, I recommend looking at every aspect of the music, not only the bass.
Answers
The music that the MM are good for is virtually anything. I listen to The Beatles, Skrillex, Linkin Park, Philip Wesley, Tom Petty, and Explosions in the Sky and they all sound great.
The bass is right where it should be, not overpowering, but there enough to where when you play some Dubstep, you can happily jam away without feeling like you are missing out. The range on these headphones is amazing and you miss nothing in any song. The highs are there just as much as the mids and lows.

Will skullcandy ever make the mixmaster bands out of metal so I don't have to go without headphones every time I rma them because there are cracks?
Answers
I have had mine since the release and they work great and have never had a crack. I have dropped them a time or two, but no damage other than purely cosmetic.
Also, I believe that Skullcandy does back this issue with the warranty policy 100%... If the damage is minimal and the band cracks, you get another pair for free.
So my recommendation; be more careful. If you are willing to drop $300 on headphones, then treat them as you would to any high quality purchase you make.
