1 / 4Skullcandy put all the Bose brains behind its bass cannons.
A 6.7 puts its noise isolation / ANC in the top half of over-ear headphones we've measured.
Measured on 86 of the 240 we've cataloged.
above average for over-ear headphones — based on 150 of 240 we've cataloged.
Usb-c is the most common — on 87% of the 135 over-ear headphones we've cataloged (of 240).
5.3 is the most common — on 26% of the 145 over-ear headphones we've cataloged (of 240).
Bluetooth is the most common — on 44% of the 215 over-ear headphones we've cataloged (of 240).
The Skullcandy Crusher 1080 ANC is a decent set of noise cancelers with an interesting gimmick that allows users to feel the bass rather than only hear it.
Objective measurements from the SoundGuys test lab — overlay other models to see how this one compares.
Measured frequency response (dB) against the SoundGuys house target — the dashed curve. The closer the measured line tracks the target, the more neutral the tuning; peaks ride above the target, dips fall below it.
