Reviews

Absolutely love these headphones. The

"Absolutely love these headphones. The bass is incredible and really makes music, movies, and workouts feel immersive without losing clarity. Battery life is amazing, comfort is great for long use, and the sound quality is powerful and fun. Pairing was quick and easy, and the overall build feels premium and durable. My only issue is that it’s hard to find OEM replacement ear cushions or if they even sell them? Other than that, these are easily a 5-star product for me."

Absolutely a game-changer. Handles sweats

"Absolutely a game-changer. Handles sweats very well on long runs. They fit perfectly well. l, super comfortable. Selected the wrong color, "soft" instead of smoke. Nonetheless, the bass is out of the roof."

Samuel O. (5/5)

Absolutely no noise canceling. Just

"Absolutely no noise canceling. Just seems like a lower quality headset, you get what you pay for. Also, I wanted to return these and get a better set, but not only do they make their customers pay for return shipping, there is no way to contact customer service in the United States. It is only an AI bought. And because of that I will no longer be buying Skullcandy products even though I’ve been a customer for 12 years"

Upgrade für das Leben

"Das Bässte was den menschlichen Ohren widerfahren kann. Diese Kopfhörer enttarnen wer Musik wirklich fühlt. Denn wer einmal in den Genuss dieser Kopfhörer gekommen ist, kann sich ein Leben ohne nicht mehr vorstellen und ist gezwungen sich diese sofort zu bestellen. Eine Wiederentdeckung von Lieblingstracks auf ganz neuer, überraschender und überwältigender Ebene. Einfach ein OHRGASMUS für Ihren, Herz und Seele."

Sophie-Luise H. (5/5)

I was actually going to

"I was actually going to exchange them for a different crusher set, they don’t feel as secure nor do they stay on as good as my old pair. I use them for the gym and they tend to slide more than I’d like. But I love this brand and their products. So, I will definitely be trying a different model. The bass is just insane 😩"

Devaney R. (5/5)

The green is an awesome

"The green is an awesome colour. On pumping tunes these sound amazing and the base resonates. When listening to audiobooks I wish I could go a lot lower on sound, needs more adjustment capabilities with percentages. Best headphones yet and I’ve tried a lot."

Gordon L. (5/5)

An absolute must buy. I

"An absolute must buy. I purchased a set of BOSE about three years ago; however, I never got the bass I wanted. The Crusher 540 will rock you into another world. They brought a new motivation to the gym. Thank you, Skullcandy."

James R. (5/5)

Superior quality compared to most

"Superior quality compared to most major namebrands. Skullcandy has always been my favorite and the Crusher 540 Active headphones check all the boxes. The treble ans adjustable bass combined is an experience you normally wouldn't find in a pair of headphones, in my opinion. The added benefit of sweat and water resistance, combined with the breathable ear cushions puts the total package of these headphones above any competition."

Brian W. (5/5)

The sound is fantastic. The

"The sound is fantastic. The bass amazing. For everyday walkabout use, an outstanding pair of headphones. In the gym, less so. They don't clamp to the head as securely as you'd hope. Vertical movements, such as the bench press, skull crusher's, even the angle of a t bar row, ate enough to invite gravity to take a firm grasp and, away they go. Sliding off with no grip at all. If I'd known this, I would have probably purchased the crusher anc, but went with the active as I'm a gym rat. Audio performance. 10/10 Resilience and the ability to remain in place. 4/10"

TOBY R. (3/5)

my only complaint is that

"my only complaint is that the ear pieces are fabric and absorb sweat instead of being material i could effectively wipe down. my skin is prone to breakouts so I'm in the habit of cleaning my headphones after my workouts but I don't feel like these are getting clean at all. fit is good but not as snug on my small head as I expected. sound is great. love the color."
