These Bass-heavy Skullcandy Crusher Headphones Are $80 Off Right Now
Although the Skullcandy Crusher ANC 2 are advertised as active noise-canceling (ANC) headphones, their bass-rumbling feature is the main attraction. For a limited time, Amazon is currently selling these comfortable over-ear headphones for $139.88 (originally $229.99), their lowest price yet, according to price-tracking tools.
If you're all about that bass, you're going to be into these headphones. I love watching music live, and while using the Skullcandy Crusher ANC 2, I feel like I'm at a concert. The thumping bass is powerful, in a good way. You also get full control of it with an easy-to-use wheel that scrolls up or down to increase or reduce the bass. The "crusher" feature is a bass enhancer, but it sounds more calibrated than just shooting up the bass on your EQ settings.
The ANC feature is decent but pales in comparison to what the best over-ear ANC headphones can offer. It also has an aware mode that you can use to hear your surroundings, and like the ANC, it's decent. Besides the bass, these headphones shine in their stylish design and comfort, as well as a well-designed app with customizable controls, EQ options, and features for voice assistance. The battery life is also impressive, with up to 60 hours of juice depending on the volume and features you have on. The addition of the stereo 3.5mm jack is always appreciated.
I've enjoyed using these headphones and pretending I am attending a live show. They're a fun pair of headphones and very good value at $139.88. But again, they're not for everyone. If you are a stickler for a perfect balanced sound, these aren't for you.
