Skullcandy - Crusher Evo vs Skullcandy - Crusher 720: My Verdict

Yeah some of these reviews leave me kinda frustrated to be honest, and yeah I do like my Crusher 540 Actives despite my pet peeves with them. I wouldn't consider them to be good sounding headphones, and I definitely wouldn't listen to them if I want good quality bass, but for a few tracks and the li

Crusher Evos vs Crusher 540s

They are one in the same (Even sharing the same model number), but the earpads on the Crusher 540 Active make the bass sensation feel a bit less powerful, particularly in the sub bass frequencies around 30-35hz. The newer Crusher Evo batches come with a custom EQ option where you can make the bass g

how sturdy are the crusher evos? r they good for gym like won’t fall off and that

They make a set of Crushers specifically for gym and other active use. The headband is a bit more tight fitting and the materials used are sweat resistant. They're pretty close in price, too. https://www.skullcandy.com.au/products/crusher-540-active

QC Ultra headphones were terrible on the treadmill

It’s the ANC battling with the sudden noise that’s happening when you run. However, don’t wear the headphones for exercising. They aren’t IP rated, the ear pads and headband will absorb sweat, the cloth driver cover will absorb sweat, and any moisture in a microphone holes, on the driver, or in the

Why cant I use a custom EQ for the C540's?

Unfortunately they dont support custom EQ. The 540s are literally "reskinned" (barely even that) Crusher EVOs advertised for fitness. Honestly total bullshit to me that Skullcandy still sells nearly 6 year old headphones at full price when they dont even have basic features like multipoint, proper e

Trying to find headset closest to Hesh 3

If you want Skullcandy, the Crusher Evo and Crusher ANC 2 are the best bang for your buck you'll ever get from them. The Crusher 540 Active is also a good option if you can find them cheap, but they're not as easy to find cheap compared to the Crusher Evo and Crusher ANC 2, which can go as low as $1

Sennheiser Momentum 5 🫠

I mean, having held Sony's products in my hands, they don't really inspire much confidence at all when it comes to durability. The ULT Wear feels like it'll snap if I stretch the headband just a little too far, so I feel nervous to even stretch it somewhat at all. Same could be said with the XM seri

Why cant I use a custom EQ for the C540's?

Tbh at this point I don't really bother with the Skullcandy app when I use my Crusher 540s. I have them plugged into my FiiO BTR15 and use my own PEQ filter with them, which is WAY more advanced than Skullcandy's 5-band EQ that is present a lot of their newer headphones.

Wish Skullcandy would reuse the old Crusher Wireless body tbh

Skullcandy is going to be coming out with a new Crusher 720 (Not Crusher PLYR 720) model within due time. I would keep my eye on those if I were you, but yeah. The headband on the Crusher Evo/540 Active can be a pain sometimes. I've gotten used to it, but it definitely not the best in terms of being

Crushers Fans. I need your help.

That's unfortunately just how the haptic bass drivers in the Crusher Wireless work. The newer Crusher models like the Crusher Evo, Crusher 540 Active, Crusher ANC 2, and Crusher PLYR 720 have haptic bass drivers that can reproduce lower bass frequencies, and do so with much more control than the Cru
