Look I'm a bass lover and everybody knows when you want bass you've got to go for Skullcandy.

[@narcoticmonke2382]

@Jing Soo Cho ohhhhh yeah cuzz like it makes a huge difference it's not like the "fake" and "real" bass sound same

[@narcoticmonke2382]

@Jing Soo Cho yeah ik dat it's hapt8c bass but just sayin it's kinnda hard to tell a diff between the two

[@peppazfletcher]

40hrs battery life, decent bass thats adjustable... amazing sound...say no more... am going with the Skullcandy

[@Darkknight9035]

''decent bass'' lol... it's more than decent bro

[@carlosjavinez8330]

Whay about quality of phone call? Please answer tnxxxx

[@cokedupcat]

@@Darkknight9035 nah; just decent.

[@GTAracingUK]

@@cokedupcat the skullcandy crusher has one of the loudest and most vibrating bass inside of a headphone product. If you put it on max bass you can use this thing as a neck massager lol

[@IATEBISCUITS]

I completely agree with your opinion. Skullcandy: More durable, better battery life, better features. Sony: more comfortable, better connectivity, less soundleak. Now the sound seems to be debatable. Everyone has their own opinion. I just wish i could find the specs on the skullcandy crusher wireless. Personally it comes down to whether u want to take your headphones outdoors or not. If you want to travel with your headphones, then i would pick skullcandy because it is foldable and u get a travelbag unlike sony's.

[@Blackice2097]

i love how people say the bass on the mdrs is overpowering but when im using them on some songs im wishing there's more bass

[@taylorsmotovlogs3735]

Black Ice aggred

[@erickocampo6169]

Black Ice we as bass heads theres nothing like too much bass lol

[@BallySG17]

yeah but you would have to have ur volume at max though or high up but that's obvious tho. The louder it is the more bass

[@splashthoughts]

agreed, i said that the first song i listened to them in

[@evolicious]

It really depends on the amp that is driving them. Try using a high quality chipset for your headphones. I use my on-board MB audio, went from a msi z77a-g45 (sandy bridge) to a asus z170-pro (skylake), and the difference in audio quality with the chipsets are night and day. Also, the bit rate of the audio file you are listening to can make a difference as well. Don't blame the headphones before you test the chipset that is driving them.

[@eagledoublett9921]

great comparison! very professional and high quality

[@NickCapaccio]

Thanks! I appreciate that!

[@Foxtrotwolf]

Hey nick may I ask you a favor?... If you had tested the Skullcandy crusher "classic"... is there a difference in sound quality or the vibration function against the wireless? I love the classic ones... and I want the wireless, but not if they're lack in quality and vibration : ) thanks and cheers from Mexico :p

[@NickCapaccio]

Hey Foxtrot, I don't own a pair of the original Crusher so I can't give you a comparison unfortunately. I have messed with them in the store and I can tell you that the build quality and feel is much better with the wireless. I may have to run out and pickup a pair to compare.

[@Foxtrotwolf]

Nick Capaccio Ok thank you very much anyway.... and GREAT VID MEN, really really nice comparison : ) It's just like the other comments said... there is a very professional feeling in your videos. Keep the good job :D

I have bought skullcandy crusher wireless a month ago, without planning to buy any headphones at all. Just seen and tested them in a mall and bought them at once. I had skullcandy mix master 2.0 before. New crushers are amazing and you have a feeling of having real subwoofers on your head. I recommend them to everyone.

Absolutely brilliant analysis. I have had the Sony XB950bt since 2015 and didn't realise all of its shortcomings till I saw your review. I have ordered the Skullcandy crushers seeing your comparison between them and the Sennheiser HD 4.40 bt. Thanks.

[@edmundgil6008]

Wow! Great A/B comparison review between two very popular and quite similar sets of headphones. Before seeing your video, I had little interest in either sets. Afterwards, you convinced me to check out the Skullcandys. If I had to identify why, I'd say it was because you kept my interest with a smooth and brisk pace, you were very detailed, you presented the info objectively, and in the end, I trusted your opinion! As a long time trial attorney, I'd say you have some very valuable skills, bro! Thank you!

[@NickCapaccio]

That's awesome Edmund, I really appreciate that! Thanks for watching!

[@dynaztycrashdiet]

I bought the Skullcandy Crusher 2 days ago & all I can say is WOW they are awesome. They also seem very popular as HMV always seem to be selling them very fast. I had to wait another week before they had them in stock & now it looks like they are sold out again.

[@madmaxcrzy5759]

Well made video dude so detailed. I was like "wow" and you got my full attention from the point where you mentioned the stitching on the sony headphones. Those details are things that other reviews miss out often times but in my opinion especially those are important. So just keep up the good work 🤘🤙

by the way the crusher wireless can change to the previous track by holding volume down two times. double press the power button brings up siri. Awsome battery life. bass is no joke in these.

[@NickCapaccio]

Thanks for the correction! I just tested it now to confirm and you're right it does work but it would not skip back or pull up siri no matter how many times I tried before, now it does for me. Thanks!

Yeah the Wireless are fantastic and a huge jump up from the original. The bass slider is now something I'd like to see on every pair of headphones, I don't always want deep bass and I like having it there when I want it.

[@xEpicxSpeed]

you can actually use the mic on the crusher wireless for the xbox one controller when its plugged into the 3.5mm jack on the controller

[@NickCapaccio]

That's good to know, my PS4 won't recognize the mic.

[@SpontaneousSponge]

Nick Capaccio, it seems that the ps4 controller has problems with cans in general. My Sony MDR-10RBT's mic doesn't get recognised either.

[@NickCapaccio]

Thanks Jon, it is weird! Other devices will recognize the mic just fine.

[@SpontaneousSponge]

Nick Capaccio, it really is. I figured that the mic wasn't getting power through the headphones so I thought I'd try to connect it via Bluetooth. But it turns out the ps4 doesn't support it?

[@NickCapaccio]

That's right, the Xbox One and PS4 aren't compatible with regular bluetooth headphones. Another commenter pointed out that you can buy a bluetooth adapter that plugs into the Dual Shock 4, you can find it on Amazon if you search for PS4 bluetooth adapter.

[@mathcastle1518]

This is the kind of videos I love. Great work.

[@3693BE]

First of all, great job on the review, Nick, very informative and well done. I wanted to offer my input as I got to experiment with both headphones, hopefully it will help others with their choice. In a nutshell, I kept the Sonys. The main reason, as mentioned in a previous comment, was the comfort. I find the Sonys much more comfortable both on top of my head and on my ears. The Crushers were too tight, stiff and uncomfortable on my ears even after a short period of time (my head is maybe slightly larger than average adult) and were particularly sore on the outside of my ear. The inside of the Sonys actually angle back towards the back of the ear (this was a helpful note I found in another review) and that made a big difference for me as far as ear comfort goes. Of course this feeling will differ for everyone, so definitely try out both if you can. Another important factor for me was the mechanism to fast forward and rewind. The Sony has a simple slider that very effectively does the trick with a quick flick. The Crushers require a 3 second press of the volume up or down buttons to change tracks, which proved a little too annoying for someone who changes tracks very frequently. As far as the slider on the Crushers go, I agree it's a really neat feature, but I never really moved it beyond around 10-20%, which essentially matched the default bass level of the Sonys. The Bass Booster on the Sonys does get pretty muddy and is not really essential unless you want a bit of brain pounding. The Crushers do sound clearer with max bass than the Sonys, but I would never go that high. As far as sound quality goes, the Crushers were a little better, probably around 10-15% clearer on vocals (even with the Sony sound adjusted to optimize), but the Sonys still have a really "fun" sound and are a pleasure to wear. So if you like the fit and will use the bass slider, the Crushers are definitely a great choice with slightly better/clearer sound (to my ear), but for me the overall comfort, track selector and (still) great sound along with the cheaper price made the Sonys my choice. Thank you again to Nick and for all the comments, hope this helps!

Very good video.... In others videos it ll be hard to find what we looking for. But u made a really great video and got what we really looking for.

[@LRRPEXILE]

I prefer the Skullcandy Crusher Wireless over the Sony MDR XB950BT. Sony MDR XB950BT: 1- You can't use the Extra Bass while wired. 2- 20 hours. 3- Extremely thick ear cups. Sony MDR > feel's like you rocking a thick padded sofa on the head. Skullcandy Crusher Wireless : 1-You can use the Extra Bass while wired. 2- 40 hours. 3- Comfortable size ear cups. 4- Headset folds. Skullcandy > Slick looking and comfortably fit's just right on the head.

[@shawncarney9889]

LRRPEXILE Skullcandy crushers also have terrible material, great sound and bass no doubt but the material is straight trash they'll last you a few months, but constant usage seems to wear them down until they start cracking, I'm on my second pair

[@19tank81]

Awesome review, I had the Sony 950 while I purchased the Crusher's and yeah big difference. The crusher has INSANE BASS especially with heavy metal, the drums sound great and the clarity in the treble sounds great. The sony 950 doesn't produce either of those points and sounds more flat and muddy with bass boost on. BUT, the Sony's MURDER the Crusher's in the Mid-bass, just listen to "Put On" by Young Jeezy, it's laughable that the midbass doesn't shine on the crusher's

[@yenice3652]

how do the sony's sound with bass boost off?

[@T1NG097]

There are 3 complaints I have with the Skullcandy Crusher Wireless headphones. The first is comfort. I wear these things for hours at a time, yet I find that after around an hour they become extremely uncomfortable and actually make the top of my head and also the front of my ears start to hurt. The rubber headband has already worn out so it provides no padding at all (I got these I believe on the 18th December), and the padding on the ear cups while still quite spongy just really isn't that comfortable, and never really was. The second complaint is the bass slider. Personally I think that it's just not fine enough to be able to choose the perfect level of bass that I want. In some cases just the slightest touch on the bass slider will completely mute the bass, or go the other way and blow my head off which isn't what I want. There's also loads of wobble to the slider and it doesn't stay fixed in place which is quite annoying. The third and final complaint is overall build quality. These headphones have been treated super delicately and with a lot of care since I got them, never dropped them or thrown them down on anything, never sat on them, they've been treated perfectly. Yet already the hinges are loose and there's loads of wobble in the headphones themselves. For the price you pay you expect more of a premium build quality from the product, and while it certainly does look the part, it just doesn't feel like a premium product and instead feels like some cheap standard headphones. Despite these complaints though, I can't actually complain about the quality of the sound. Sure I could wish for a bit more oomph in the mids and a bit more clarity in the highs, but then again those aren't the focus of these headphones. I bought these because I wanted to experience super strong bass and lows, and that's exactly what I've gotten. The bass on these truly is superb and I would actually compare it to having a small guitar amp on each ear when the slider is turned up high, so if bass is something you're after then definitely there's nothing more I'd recommend than the Skullcandy Crusher Wireless. I do wish they were more comfortable though.

I wanted a pair that was comparable in bass level and I unfortunately went with a pair of JBL’s. After watching this video I found the Skull Candys on Amazon for $112. I am super happy with these. As long as the build quality holds, I don’t plan on going back to Sony.

[@AlexanderGarcia-xi3mg]

Idk about the skull candy but I loved my mdr, I just hated the price the Cushing keeper getting lose and for something thats 200 I expect it to be great. but the bass was good, it was better when u used songs not downloaded to ur phone because u know free music changes some stuff sometimes but when I would go to KZbin and bass was just great

But the Sony loosing the bass with the cord, well it won't be a big issue for me. It already has a decent amount of bass without the boost and the battery life is great. 20hrs that's almost one day so i think loosing the bass issue won't be much of a problem to me.

i need to go to bestbuy to try out the new crushers. Thanks for the review comparisons! (subbed)

[@NickCapaccio]

No problem, let me know what you think of them! I have heard nothing but praise from everyone who has tried them.

[@jweze08]

i shit you not i was in the same situation last week. i ended up picking the crushers. the sony are not compact. but they are very comfortable. the crushers are the best because of the base. I would even buy crushers over beats...yes i had beats also. the 400 dollar ones.

[@xomnicideacex1252]

Nick Capaccio bought them today and they're amazing, Sony gets a 2/5 and the crushers get a 5/5 imo

[@NickCapaccio]

Glad you like them! Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@brandonparfait9744]

ejfmdawg I hope your local Best Buy doesn't have a broken display. I work at my local Best Buy and Skullcandy gave us a broken display. I bought the crusher wireless anyway though since I previously owned the word version. The wireless crushers are actually better than the wired version.

[@GabrielIgnacio]

The Crusher Wireless are impressive but the Sony XB950BT offers a wider soundstage thanks to the earcups (also really responsive to eq adjustments) and offers nfc as a connection method. The Crusher Wireless are more appealing if you like Skullcandy's sound signature and that 40 hour battery life the Crusher Wireless offers over the XB950BT's 20 hours.

[@camrynwhite4541]

Gabriel Ignacio I know I've tried both and The Sonys are really nice

[@lubnabegum3998]

Camryn White which do you prefer?

[@camrynwhite4541]

Lubna Begum Sonys but it's a personal preference

[@nightly4303]

I have the Skullcandy Crusher Wireless, infact I'm using them typing this. I have mixed feelings towards them. One of which being the bass, it's way too overwhelming and artifical. I have the bass slider set to the minimum as it completely ruins the song anything above 20 percent. I may have to return these headphones.

[@TheZazey]

This is what I'm thinking, my cousin has a pair of the sony's and they just felt, fake on bass on some songs, perhaps the crushers are better in this regard?

[@kaidx3]

The bass boost on the Sony ones is not off when it's plugged into the aux chord. Only when it's Dead. If you leave it turned on while plugged in, then the bass boost will still work.

[@athanbjr]

I have the 950's but the ventilation on the top during a walk feels very nice. But the 950's have bass like i call them Earthquake Simulator.

[@loshamolodec7602]

I watched this video with the skullcandy crusher wireless:)

[@u1s3e4r]

Losha Molodec same

[@mostloco]

watching this using my own skullcandy crusher!

[@tomaschazarreta1263]

After 2 years. Are these still worth buying?

[@cchorizoface]

Great video, helped out a lot

[@NickCapaccio]

Awesome, thanks for watching and commenting!

[@nano247]

Thank you for the very informative video! I was all in on the Sony's but after watching your video, I'm def thinking Skullcandy now.

[@NickCapaccio]

You're welcome, thanks for watching! I'd definitely try to listen to them for yourself, especially if you like bass!

[@juanflo7268]

I bought me a pair of sonys and I did not enjoy them as much since 3 months later the rotating part of the headphones broke and was unfixable but then I bought me a pair of skullcandy and I was very satisfied

[@NickCapaccio]

I've smeen some other people mention the swivel part broke as well, which pair did you go with?

[@suwidah]

Bought the crushers 😌

[@NickCapaccio]

Awesome, how do you like them so far?

[@suwidah]

Nick Capaccio I didn't get my hands on them yet. I hope these will last me just like the MDR xb1000 which still lasting me over 5 years

[@laura-me1lf]

How are they? Or were.....

[@AnthonyJLopez]

Yeah it doe happened to me when i'm turning up the volume on headphones and my device to get that punchy bass feel which i did get.

[@nochelon]

Great video man. I have hearing loss from my time in the military. Which ones are louder overall..? Thanks man.

[@yenice3652]

aside from bass which sounds better?

[@NickCapaccio]

In my opinion, the Crusher Wireless sound better all around. Mids are pulled back on the Sony compared to the Skullcandy, and highs are more detailed on the Crusher Wireless as well, I prefer brighter headphones, so I like the Skullcandy better. The MDR-XB950BT sound great, but the Crusher Wireless sound better, not even factoring in the bass control.

[@yenice3652]

Thanks so much Nick! I'll get the Crushers and hope it's worth the extra $50. Loved the review man, top quality stuff!

[@NickCapaccio]

Thanks! let me know what you think of them!

[@camrynwhite4541]

Smoove I like the Sonys better so you should try them both at your local Best Buy or other places that sell them

[@zthreetwo9874]

I would go with the skullcandy crushers, they sound more clear a bright, but the sony's have this more dynamic deep sound!

[@darthgamer6080]

I still prefer the Sonys as my headphone between these two.

[@RohanSam69]

Have owned any of these

[@athanbjr]

I hear you on the losing the bass boost function, however, i was not buying wireless headphones to use them wired. By the time i am buying, i know how my life and routines are so i never run out of juice. I agree that on Bluetooth i have to yell abit to be heard on a call but the bass is fine. I love my bass deep, and do not enjoy using these without the boost

[@DL-gb7ln]

Thank you for that great video could you also please do Skullcandy 360 also whats the difference between the 360 limited edition from skullcandy

[@christian_7624]

Crushers

[@okayge_]

Are the sony's on-ear or around-ear?

[@NickCapaccio]

Around the ear, Sony also has the MDR-XB650BT which are on ear.

[@nathannguyen4673]

Super pro vid and really helpful, well done Nick :)

[@NickCapaccio]

Thanks very much!

[@mrwolf5733]

This just made up my mind on which one to buy. Great review, thank you. (:

[@ay-ce5wc]

So which one you buying?

[@mrwolf5733]

+Akshay Prajapati I got the Skullcandy ones. I like them so far, the bass is super intense. It's like being in a car with subwoofers. It's great for rap and hip-hop, but with the bass turned up it's not so great with rock or metal. While the bass is great, the high's and mid's don't get as loud as I like. Only get these if you just plan on listening to music meant for bass. If you plan on using them for anything else I would suggest getting a different kind of headset.

[@ukietajohnson4249]

good vid

[@NickCapaccio]

Thanks!
