Product FAQ

What Is Sound by Bose?

Sound by Bose technology brings premium Bose-licensed audio technologies to Crusher 1080 ANC. This includes Bose QuietControl Active Noise Canceling, Bose TrueSpatial audio, Bose WaveForm Audio Engine, and Bose SpeechClarity Voice Pickup Technology.

What Is Crusher Bass?

What Is Personal Sound?

Personal Sound by Mimi is advanced sound personalization technology built directly into compatible Skullcandy headphones. Mimi is a global leader in sound personalization technology for consumer audio devices. The technology adapts audio to your specific hearing profile, not a generic preset.

Fantastic Headphones

"These headphones sound great and fit well around my ears. The bass dial allows adjustment of the bass quality, which is noticeable with various music tracks. The bass quality depends on the type of music and instrumentation that listeners experience. Overall, great sound, bass, and quality."

Joshua Z. (4/5)

This was great

"I like the bass an the sound is crystal clear an my gf really likes the cute pink color she said but she said it would be awesome if the headphone would have been better to have the skull candy logo on the earmuffs in a cool design"

Troy D. (5/5)

I enjoyed the dynamic sound

"I enjoyed the dynamic sound that comes from these pair of headphones. The bass is good but not overwhelming like it is in the Evo's. Those who like their bass on a tamer side will enjoy these new headphones. So with that said enjoy my fellow listeners."

Roderick S. (5/5)

Sound is great, bass is

"Sound is great, bass is great, customization is great, all most all great, but my music glitches out when I turn the headphones on while they’re on my head. Also, the bass earcup wheel moves on its own when I listen to bass/drum heavy music."

Teisha L. (4/5)

Very decent on all aspects!

"Very decent on all aspects! Sound is amazing! Bass is the most impressive sensation I’ve had with headphones! The controls feel natural to use and paired with app the features give a very cool experience. The only issue I had was the earphones would pause my music and podcasts randomly and I couldn’t figure out why for a moment and was quite annoying since I figured the firmware update would fix it. But what it actually was is the detection setting that is supposed to know if you are wearing your headphones or not and this was toggled on in the app automatically. So I had turn this setting off to stop my music pausing randomly. Not sure if it’s just my skinny head or there’s something else in the build not quite right. But overall I’m very impressed!"

Falco F. (5/5)

"This is perfection of both companies. Skullcandy and Bose, thank you. Im loving this purchase. I highly recommend this to anyone that is a big fan of both and still wants to have it sound aware so you can listen to music and still talk to people or just have them on his earmuffs when you’re mowing, the lawn or something, no, I wish I could’ve gotten the brown ones but they were out of stock so I got these coloured cement ones. It’s not too bad of a color. It’s a great product."

Chris (5/5)

Quality of sound is very

"Quality of sound is very good. But the black covering on the cushion part is coming undone and I have done nothing to cause any wear and tear on it. Ive worn the head phones probably twice and to see it coming apart is very very dissappointing"

Matthew P. (2/5)

No one contacted me despite

"No one contacted me despite trying to get warranty help or a return issued. I received the product with a torn right ear pad right out the box and wanted to see if I could receive a replacement. It felt almost impossible to get a hold of anyone via call or email. It felt very isolated and unprofessional. If there was more done to help me or acknowledge my experience I would have gladly given a better rating. I unfortunately had to pay an additional $35 just to buy some replacement ear pads from another source just to avoid the hassle of paying shipping and waiting all that additional time. Do better Skullcandy."

Jesus M. (1/5)

Love my Crushers 1080. I

"Love my Crushers 1080. I needed a pair of headphones with enough bass to rattle my skull and enough ANC to avoid interference while listening to my music. This is the perfect pair!"

Jose A. (5/5)

The sound quality is still

"The sound quality is still kind of meh, but if you’re here for the bass boosting, it’s pretty great! Plus I love my pink headset. Unfortunately I sleep with my headphones on so the cushions are kinda flat on one side"
