A marvel of sound technology

bykweckstrom Oct 23, 2001
16 Helpfuls 17 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Bright, non-offensive highs, great horns, deep bass, handles plenty of power.
Cons Some might balk at the price, but i'd buy them at 2x the price.
Recommended it? Yes

Once in a while, a product I purchase far exceeds my expectations. It doesn't happen often, but when it does it's something I really, truly enjoy. This is one of those products.

I'm an audiophile. I have a rather extensive collection of CD's (over 600 at last count), I'm really diverse in... Read full review »

Pros Comfort fit and good sound quality within range.
Cons Bad bass and won't stay on unless your careful.
Recommended it? Yes

Over the past couple of weeks I have been searching for a pair of good headphones. I bounced around from in ear to in ear all of which were ok but quite hit the spot. I decided to go for some on ear headphones and Skullcandy has some of the best in the business. I went out and bought a pair of... Read full review »

Better necklace than headphones

bychevygirl1992 Mar 26, 2012
7 Helpfuls 8 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Light, folding ability is cool, decent sound
Cons No full coverage, move around on your head
Recommended it? No

I would consider these like the step below the higher priced skull candies, but thinking about it I don't know why they even made them. If you don't want to spend the money for good over ear headphones, just get ear buds. The low riders don't cover the whole ear so slot of sound escapes and let's... Read full review »
