I own a pair of both, I upgraded to the Crusher Evo's recently, have been an amazing upgrade in every aspect as you described. I'm a very seasoned bass head, love the skull-crushing bass even do stereo competitions, and own a 4 12 inch subwoofer system. The Skullcandy Crusher Evo's bass slider frequency response is a lot better than the original. The cutoff for them was around 45hz or so. The new ones can go all the way down into the low 20hz field and up to 80hz for the haptic bass. They are the loudest in between the 30hz to 50hz range. Have been super happy with these so far. It's a plus that I can use a cable as well and still get the haptic bass at the same time. When I am doing music remasters I love to try the song out on these just to hear how a strong bass system would sound on that track. Just wanted to share why these seemed to sound better and why if you own a pair of the originals and weren't happy with the haptic bass on hip-hop music you will be happy with a pair of these.

For everyone who has one of these headphones: Take a plastic cup. Fill it about 3/4 full with water (not too full or it'll spill everywhere). Put the headphones on it as if the cup would be ears. Slide the Crusher Bass up to max and play a bassy song. Have fun.

But, how are you so obviously into crushers and haven't upgraded to wireless yet (as of the time of your comment)? They've been available for years now. Are the OGs with AA that good? I have the first wireless and have been tempted to get a pair of wired OGs only because they look retro and cool but I never got them cause I thought they would be inevitably disappointing compared to the wireless. Wouldn't get them now though, much rather put that money into upgrading to evos at this point or those recently released ANC 2s that look insane.

They have motors that shake with the headphones bass so when you put that on hard plastic encasing a sensitive microphone you get dat funny distortion

[@gibdopaminepls]

haptic feedback motors on sensitive microphones is not a happy pairing it's what you'd hear if the haptic feedback motors were directly linked to your eardrums. someone should patent that.

mate i had the ORIGINALS of these bought at like, walmart with the janky slider. They had the trashiest bass but my baby ears thought it was the peak of CoolTM. That skull candy aux cable they came with is still in use. I still use it in my car to this day, hasnt busted or frayed, its a miracle

[@angrygingerboss]

I own a pair of the ANC crushers and they are exactly how you describe the evo's. They are a complete joy to listen to.

[@BewareTheLilyOfTheValley]

I'm jealous, I don't really even know the full differences between the Evo's and thr ANC (unless one just has the noise cancelling), but I've been wanting those for awhile but they're sold out and Skullcandy doesn't seem interested in stocking them. I have a 30% coupon with them that expires in March that I've been itching to use. My hope is thst maybe they're instead gearing up to release something different.

[@TakeThis_L]

The evo’s supposedly sound better than the ANC’s

[@cmac8O8]

@@BewareTheLilyOfTheValley Owned both at one point, but returned the ANCs a week later for multiple reasons. The build quality on it felt looser than the Evo, and the ear cushions were slightly smaller and firmer. The noise cancelling performance also wasn't that great...I have the QC35 and XM4 in my collection as well, and for the Crusher ANC to be priced at $320...that's some tough competition to go at with mediocre noise cancelling. I gave the Crusher ANC a second try a month later when they were on sale, but the same build quality remained. Even at a lowered price of $250, it didn't feel right for me to keep in my collection, even if it were to sit there and collect dust. One thing I should mention too is that Skullcandy has stopped selling the Crusher ANC on their official website for about a year now. I bet they are working on something new, maybe a Crusher ANC 2.0 or something like that, but we'll never truly know until they release it...if it's even a thing in development that is...

[@zeliardforty-two4692]

I found it hilarious how much that one pair vibes with the track you used 😂 trying to give you sweet base when there really is none! I personally liked Skull Candy, but it really can be hit or miss. They really are a niche set for those who really want the base. I sort of grew out of them when I started expanding my taste in music. It really does sound funny when the base drowns out everything else Also, love that line: “I’ve been self-medicating by drinking paint” 😂

[@benedicvelasco]

Because good headphones can make a natural low sounding instrument like that of double bass sound great.

[@MA-naconitor]

5:37 Max Whack sounds like you've stuck your head inside the Double Bass

[@entrippyZ]

I've owned the evos for 1 year now and I can't praise them enough. The sound is decent/good but their real strength is DURABILITY. I landscape and exercise a lot and their constantly flying off my head and banging into stuff. They still slap just as hard as day 1 and when you turn the bass off, they run for like 3 days. If you want decent headphones that can take a hit and keep going, these are a major option.

[@smithincanton]

I got my kids each a set of Skullcandy Hesh 2 for Christmas...SEVEN years ago and they both get used DAILY! They have been the most solid things I've ever bought.

[@pilipemo]

My first crushers were the crusher 360's. Loved them a lot but the top headband cusion was starting to peel and I later got the crusher ANC. I liked those, but the audio quality wasn't as good and the ANC had like a white noise that was annoying. I returned them and got the crusher evo and I do not regret that purchase. I still use them today and even right now. Sound quality is better and feels better than previous crushers.

[@melted_pistons]

The 360s were so much better built, I wish they kept the metal construction

I went to the store once with a headache, saw these on display and decided to try them because I saw his last video on the crushers, and when I turned the bass up it shook the headache out and I was fine for the rest of the day

[@Blu2jz621]

in my experience, the bass on the Crushers and Crusher Evos is more enjoyable on songs that have a more "even" bass (I'm not too sure how to explain it), my favorite examples being songs like Tel Aviv by Skeler, Push Up by Creeds, Resonance by Home, and drowning by Vague003. Also, the experience you get with these headphones are *really* hard to represent across a screen, which the freakish-ears-on-a-stand do ok, but imo a big part of it comes from the actual vibration of the headphones itself. On an unrelated note, I think an artist you might find interesting is acloudyskye, they have a very unique style of music that I personally love, and it sounds incredible imo through anything. their music has some parts that have a very closed in feel, and simultaneously parts that make you feel like you're in an empty warehouse.

[@christowers7307]

Do they get low?? I know they have boomy 100hz bass but I would love to listen to music around 30 to 40hz, like properly low. Do these get there?

[@Blu2jz621]

@@christowers7307 I'm not 100% sure, I have hearing damage and wouldn't be able to tell ya for sure, nor do I have/know a way to test it besides listening. if I had to guess though, I'd imagine a few of acloudyskye's songs get pretty low. apologies I can't be of much help lol

[@skeptic_lemon]

The older Crusher on max whack had this weird noise that dominated everything else. It may just have been the driver of my headphones smashing against the structure. Anyways, the new ones don't bother, they just hammer away on your ears. Strangely soothing. Edit: and in the last comparison they just dun did bamboozle switcharoony and now they are the opposite

[@DarthTatorGames]

There's a small chance he accidentally flipped the audios? because in the beginning the rattle noise definitely is more prominent on the non-evo's

[@skeptic_lemon]

@@DarthTatorGames Yeah I was thinking of that too but you know it could just be that he recorded the audio twice and put them on the stand in a different way. He did say that the microphone picked up weird shit with all the vibration the cans were doing so that could just be the rattle noise. I do agree it is most likely what you said though.

Like I was able to hear things that I wasnt able to hear with my old JLab Earbuds that I've been using.
