"The skullcandy 1080 are awesome the sound is so good and clear with bose waveform QuietComfort audio. Anc and transparency mode that just works. The bass is nice to though I wish it was a little bit stronger. Ear detection firmware update helped alot by leaving it off and with different eq apps I can get more crusher bass is even more stronger. Overall I'm liking the skullcandy crusher 1080."

— Dwight D. (5/5)

There are some definitely good

"There are some definitely good headphones and I won’t say I would pay $279 form because I got mine for 199 but the bass is pretty good on them and the active noise canceling is good too. I just wish they didn’t feel like they was gonna fall off my head all the time other than that there’s some pretty solid headphones."

— Bryson H. (4/5)

I've always liked Skull candy

"I've always liked Skull candy since they first came out. The bose mixed with extra bass is great, i wish i knew more songs that could take full advantage of this. Love listening to Lava for background noise, you can feel the lava pulse. The seismic charge from Starwars sounds just like in the theater. Noise canceling is great as well as aware mode works great. Only thing i would change is turning up the active listening so i can be sure to hear my family."

— Alex L. (5/5)

Skullcandy headphones are always good

"Skullcandy headphones are always good but for the price, I thought this ones would be a huge jump from the 2021 crusher evos I've had and they're almost the same thing. I don't know if it's normal but when they pause the music sometimes theres a loud pop before the music starts again. I tried returning them and never got the instructions email so I had to keep them and for the price I wouldn't have bought them knowing it's not an actual upgrade from previous versions."

— Isa G. (3/5)

Love the headphones the sound

"Love the headphones the sound quality is really amazing and the bass is really good when you up the volume, don’t know if it’s just a me problem but the Bluetooth can be a little spotty sometimes, but besides that I love them!"

— Angel G. (4/5)

"“Absolutely love the Crusher 1080! The sound quality is amazing, and the bass is incredibly deep and powerful without taking away from the clarity. They’re also very comfortable to wear, even for long periods. Definitely a great choice for anyone who loves immersive, powerful sound!”"

— Galo (5/5)

The hard hitting bass of

"The hard hitting bass of the Evo tuned down just a bit to let the higher sound quality shine. These are a truly premium pair of headphones that I can't recommend highly enough for those of us who want pulsing bass but still want to hear the nuance of the vocals and instrumentals in a track."

— Owen B. (5/5)

Really love the bass and

"Really love the bass and punchy tone of the headphones even though i do feel for the price they could be clearer at the highest bass levels but other then that there really solid headphones with lots of features and settings 100% would buy again"
