Skullcandy?

I recently got some of the Skullcandy (15$ version) headphones expecting another piece of crap to replace my missing Shure SE210's... (I'll find them). When I put then into my ipod and then into my ear, I must say I was actually quite pleased with the quality. These things are great for the money!! They fairly good bass levels and hit the highs and lows of rock music with no problems at all.

What do you guys think aboutthis new brand?

i hear they're good, but they are very prone to breaking.ateace3

Yeah I can see that happening. The wire casing is VERY flimsy. But still, were 15$!

I have the Full Metal Jacket skullcandy in-ear phones the sound quallity is amazing and they are tough! they cost about $70 tho, but i was sick of going through cheap ear phones all the time! def worth the extra money

Eh, for 70$ you would have been better off with the Shure SE110's... MUCH better for the price.

Skullcandy don't actually make any headphones, all they are are a bunch of designers and marketers. The headphones are repackaged versions of a Chinese company. They're a fasion icon and should be ignored if you're looking for quality listening devices.markop2003

Quite true. But they're 15$ line cant be beat by the others in that price range.

Sennheiser HD201 says hi.

As for SkullCandy, as Markop said, they are nothing more than "hip" fashion accessories. Sound quality is mediocre at best.

eh... ive been thru hundreds of in-ear phones in my life, and they always break on me or just cut out after a while, wotever u say, the skullcandy FMJ's are the best head phones ive ever owned, sound quality and durability!!!RonnyRarko

Seriously?

By the sound of it you just need to treat them better.

This looks like a stealth marketing thread. And anyone that considers Skullcandy to be anything besides a fashionable brand (Which is lame) needs to get their mental health cheched, and their bank account checked.

Skullcandy sucks.

Stay far away.

had a skullcandy headset, lasted 6 months and I took fairly good care of it... one day I was just about to put them on, and the s**t broke. The plastic snapped in two. So I'll try to get my hands one those Sennheiser or something a bit more expensive. :)

Get a BeyerDynamic DT770 PRO 80 Ohm. The damn thing is nearly indestructible. Believe me, I rarely take care of my headphones, and all my old plastic Sony/Panasonic/whateverbrand headphones broke within 6 months. I leave this baby on the floor because I barely have to worry about it. And the sound quality is superb.
