Great headphones for the price! September 2, 2010

At about $40, these headphones are wonderful. The quality isn't perfect, but it is nice. The headphones are comfortable, but as with most over the ear headphones, they get warm and a little uncomfortable if you wear them for long periods of time. The cable is an ideal length at about five feet and is relatively thick. The in-line sub-woofer amp is sometimes a nuisance, but I have had few problems with it. The bass produced by the sub-woofers is nice and adjustable (at full power, the bass IMO is extremely excessive). I found that the bass sounds in most rock music are not reproduced that greatly in the headphones, but most people won't notice because it's not that bad. The headphones fold up really nice and come with a bag and two attachments, so that's a plus. I listen to rock, rap, electronica/dub-step, country, and alternative, and these headphones do good with all of these genres. I have used these headphones for music, movies, video games, and guitar, and I am very satisfied with the quality. I have had these headphones for a few months and they are still in great condition. The build quality and durability seem great, plus the headphones look great. Overall, I am convinced that these are the best headphones you can get in this price range. I am very satisfied with my purchase. I recommend these for people looking for good value over-the-ear headphones, but not to audiophiles.
 Either all bass or no bass, it's like either being at a rock concert or the library September 2, 2010
Ummmm....
So I thought the "bass-amplified subwoofer" would be and "option" if I really wanted to jam. It's either no bass that sounds terrible or a ridiculous amount of bass that actually shakes your ears. It's not that I don't like the bass that's offered, I just want the option to listen on a "normal" level. Probably better headphones out there. Definitely comfortable though.
 Not Sure What to Think September 1, 2010

I'm not sure how I feel about these headphones. I purchased them over the summer, in hopes that they would help to keep out the loud airplane engine on my journey home from California. Unfortunately I never got to test them out.
When I first tried these headphones, it was very weird to feel them vibrating my face. After a couple of days, I got used to it and actually started to enjoy it. I played around with a variety of songs and genres and got it actually sounding pretty good for everything.
A few beefs I have with these headphones however is that first off they're not very loud... this isn't that big of a deal though since they do a pretty good job of keeping outside noise out, especially for being passive headphones.
The last 2 beefs are pretty major. The first is the addition of the "bass amplifier". I can understand that this is needed to drive the larger subwoofer drivers that cause my head to shake, but honestly the thing is about 6 inches from the plug and it's so big and awkward I never know what to do with it. If you clip it to your pocket, when you try to take the iPod out of your pocket you have to unclip the driver as well. It might be better if it's positioned further up the wire. Another thing that perplexed me about the driver was the bass sensitivity dial. I found the best sound/bass ratio at very low on the dial and the other 75% of the dial was ridiculously muffled bassy noise. Does anyone keep it up that high? Also the sensitivity on the thing very corse. If you move it a little from your setting you notice a big difference.
The last beef is why I never got to try these out on the airplane. About a week after purchasing these headphones, I was about to leave my apartment but had to get something from the fridge. I bent down to get it and the wire wrapped around my knee. When I stood up, the wire seemed to just pop right out of the little molding where the one big wire splits into individual left and right wires causing my new toy to be rendered useless. I understand there's some sort of warranty, but I don't even know if I want these anymore. My iPod earbuds have been much more versatile and aren't terrible quality.
Perhaps in a few more revisions Skullcandy will have mastered the art of product design, but as for now I feel that these headphones are a little gimmicky and need more work. They are only $40 here on Amazon though so maybe you should just try them out anyway and see if they're for you.
 Excellent Bass and Power August 23, 2010

These are the best headphones I have ever bought. I like to listen to a lot of music with bass and the sub woofers in these skullcrushers are spectacular. You can adjust the bass to whatever level you like and at max it is quite powerful and awesome. Surprisingly, people around you can't even hear your music even with all the bass and loud music. Also, you can't hear them too well. I've had mine for a while and they haven't broken, you just have to take good care of them. If they do break(not from accidental damage), there is a lifetime warranty and you can get new ones for free.
Good Sound, Bad Physical Quality August 22, 2010
Disgruntled
I bought my Skullcrushers a week ago. I had previously used some Skullcandy headphones before so I knew that they would come with good sound quality and didn't mind the other cons that people mention, like how the earpads can get hot.
They just broke. After a week of LIGHT use. I only used them to listen to my iPod and on my computer. Never even took them outside to see the light of day. Took extremely good care of them while I had them. And now they're broken.
It seems the headphone jack is VERY VERY fragile. One slight jar to it while its securely attached to a media device means death for your headphones. I've had other headphones that have received much abuse over the years and still have worked fine after various degrees of punishment, but these Skullcrushers just died on me. The sound is now half garbled and I have sent it back for a warranty replacement. I understand that Skullcandy provides a decent lifetime warranty, but if all i get is a 50% off coupon in their store I swear I'm never gonna buy from Skullcandy ever again.
HOW DID THEY BREAK IN ONE WEEK!?!?!?
