Skull Candy has always provided reliable products at an affordable price, with performance in line with those benefits. Their Crusher 1080 ANC headphones, currently selling for $200, outperform most every other headphones in that price range, and if you love your bass these may just make you cry tears of joy. That bass is provided by their partnership with Bose, and is delivered by a dial on the left earphone, easily adjustable to your desired level. We went through our demo playlist, from rock to pop to jazz, classical, rap and house—nothing kept these headphones from performing consistently and cleanly. They charge quickly and hold a 60 hour charge, offer Bose noise canceling and spatial audio, too.
