The Crusher ANC 2 comes with adjustable 4-mic active noise canceling, the famous Crusher Adjustable Sensory Bass feature, personal sound by Mimi, Multipoint pairing, and a 50-hour battery life with rapid charge.The Crusher ANC 2 has two listening modes: active noise cancellation (ANC) and stay-aware modes.

This feature lets you hear noises around you so you can be aware of your surroundings without turning off your headphones. What is unique about these settings is that users can adjust each mode's intensity level by either using the app or with voice commands.So what is its practical sense of use?

“These headphones do the one thing they are supposed to do good, and thats the bass. These give off a skull rattling bass, especially on max bass and on hip hop tracks. They also work pretty good for action movies that have lots of bass heavy sound effects. As a fellow bass enjoyer, the best I can describe the bass sounding is if you were to take the subwoofer rattle from a good car speaker setup and put it right up against both sides of your head.

However in terms of sound quality, the headphones aren’t bad. The headphones cut out some of the mids and high-mids which kinda just muddies every sound except base together, kinda reminds me of how some anker soundcore earbuds sound. Dont get me wrong, the sound isnt bad, but not the best quality you can get in a 200$ pair of Bluetooth headphones. Most likely, ur not buying these headphones for top notch audio.

Noice cancellation is not good. The headphones dont really cancel that much noise. No where near as good as Sony’s or apple’s noise cancellation. The transparency mode also barely does anything. I found I have to lower volume all the way down to 20% to hear a normal conversation.

I haven’t fully tested the battery but so far, the headphones dropped 10% in 3 hours from a full charge. So theoretically, the headphones should last at least 30 hours.

There is a mic but its also pretty bad. Decent enough for phone calls I guess, but still pretty bad.

Overall, for the price, I feel these headphones dont really deserve a 5/5 star, but skull candy did pretty good with the bass. If your a bass fan, you will love these headphones. If you are looking for something with a better clarity and wider range of sound, I’d recommend something else.

Also as a side note, I’m having a weird issue where the headphones will randomly start making a hissing sound and the bass wigs out. This happened after i took the headphones off for around 10 minutes and came back to the headphones doing that. Somewhat shaking the headphones fixes it though. Idk, I might have a faulty pair or something.”

“I was scrolling through TikTok when I came across someone raving about the first version of these. So I decided to get this version since it should be just as good as the first but with better features, right?

So first off, sound. I like the sound it gives me, better than other over the ear headphones I have. There isn’t that empty space feeling you sometimes get with headphones like these.

Bass: I always struggled to get the bass I wanted. It’s always not enough with other products. Even messing with the eq settings never seemed to help. But with these headphones I can control the bass and boost it to my liking. And it isn’t just bass without substance; I’m still getting the music along with the bass, which sometimes becomes an afterthought with some bass boosting products. And the right song can have my head shaking and I love it

Noise canceling: I’m sure it’s great. I can’t really ever do complete noise canceling since I’m always listening out for my son in case he needs anything, or the doorbell, and even at night I keep it to hear through mode. But I know it can cancel noise very well, and even hear through cancels a good amount of noise

Battery life: pretty good considering what all it has to do. I had earphones once that felt like it couldn’t last more than an hour but these headphones gives me plenty of battery life without me worrying about it. Plus when you turn it on it tells you how much battery life it has, which makes it even easier for me to relax

App? Most products like this has apps nowadays, and this is no exception. But what I wasn’t expecting was the ability to be able to pair to multiple devices. Now I don’t have to make my phone forget these headphones just to be able to connect it to something else. And it’s seem less going from one to the other

Overall I know I’m probably forgetting something important but I'm not a tech savvy person, just an average person who wants skull rattling bass without sacrificing the music. I'm super satisfied with these headphones, to the point I don’t even use my other head/earphones, it just wouldn’t sound the same”

“Was in need of a new set headphones and after doing my searching I came across these online after seeing such positive feedback I was very interested in them. The bass is next level literally feel like there’s subwoofers behind me when I listen to music. The ANC isn’t the best out there but with the bass an a bit of volume you won’t hear anything anyways ( trust me ). The ability to change every buttons actions is so convenient as well great battery life. Fast charging. Great build soft touch plastic and the ear cups are nice and soft. If anyone is in the market for a good set of headphones with bass ( real bass ) these are the ones. Everyone who I let try them out instantly smiles and laughs away because they can’t believe what they were feeling as the bass shakes/vibrates their head. The Skullcandy iQ is great as well and so easy to use. Haven’t had Skullcandy products in a long time so I was kinda anxious trying them out but I’m so happy I did ! They sound great they look great I couldn’t ask for more and the price is also not bad at all. I don’t leave reviews but I just had to”

“The best headphones I have ever purchased for the Buck! I tried the $400+ Bose and Sony headphones and this blows this away by a mile. This is the only headphones that delivers the bass that I want. Other headphones sounds blown at full blast. I usually buy Bose products but this just made me change my mind about them. Your ears are shaking from the bass. Sound quality is great. Highs is perfect. Bass doesn't drown them.”

“These headphones... When it comes to bone rattling bass, or regular daily headphones they do it all, they have so many quality of life features and I love the quality on them, PERSONAL SOUND IS A GAME. CHANGER. Truly, it makes the sound so much better and I thought it couldn't get any better! I was shocked at the difference between regular and personalized sound, I was confused why it sounded so much worse, so if you have the time to, set up personal sound, you will not regret it.”

“I purchased these phenomenal headphones from Walmart for $199. Everything about these are exceptional. There’s a multitude of settings on the Skullcandy IQ app that allow you to fine tune the headphones to your own personal taste.

The first thing that I did after installing the app, was to take the 3 minute hearing test. Doing so allows you to personalize your listening experience and it provides for a wonderful and very satisfying listening session. Playing music with these headphones is pure euphoria.

Without using the crusher bass control; the sound is crystal clear and just as good as far more expensive headphones. When you adjust the crusher; the bass response is simply out of this world. It’s beyond belief. These are killer headphones & even with the crusher set at 50%; you’ll experience more bass than you’ll ever need.

I’m very pleased with my purchase and find myself listening to music for extended periods of time with these headphones. Not only do they sound great, but they’re also very comfortable for long term use. I actually prefer these headphones to far more expensive ones that I own.”

“This was such a big step from the Evo’s. I bought them on the skullcandy website and am also leaving a review here. The bass has a more clear acoustic feel and is less distorted at higher volumes. The ANC is also another step from the regular ANC’s. Sound quality is insane and comfort heavenly. I keep these things on for hours! To be honest the noise cancellation doesn’t compare to the Sony XM5’s but it does the job well done. Great product!”

“Because of an acquaintance with the Crusher Evo and the overwhelming first impression, I bought the ANC2. I had expected a good transparency mode from these.

But first of all, the processing

The workmanship is very successful. The headphones feel high-quality and the materials used make a good impression.

Sound

Thanks to the Skull IQ app, the manufacturer has provided a powerful tool for many settings. They have a more or less major influence on sound quality.

The app's personalized option also provides a good individual listening experience. As a user, you have to hold down the button as long as a beep appears. Anyone who explores it further will certainly gain much deeper insights.

Sound

On the mobile phone via Bluetooth, the sound is good, but somehow not outstanding. But when I bought it, it was more about the basses anyway and they come into their own more or less in certain genres. With about 50% Crusher activated, I listened to Hardstyle Ran D, Coone, Da Tweekaz (effect very good, sometimes a bit delayed), EDM Vigiland, Timmy Trumpet (effect very good), Metal Bullet for my Valentine various tracks (much too strong).

On a PC on an external Sennheiser sound card, the result was also somewhat disappointing. Maybe it's also due to the sound profiles on the sound card, but I would have liked more plug & play in that direction. Experience in terms of films was, for example, bass-heavy openings such as Transformers 1-3 (rapid exaggeration of the Crusher basses), various explosion scenes from other films (I lacked the expected punch here). As I said, there may be other settings, but I don't want to distill a philosophy there either.

Wearing comfort

The seat is very good. I even brought the headphones with me for a run and they didn't even slip. I would have expected that to be worse and I am pleasantly surprised.

Transparency mode

Transparency mode is actually a joke. The manufacturer calls the function waking mode and the app covers this well, but the implementation in everyday life is very weak. While jogging with medium-high volume and wake mode activated, I always had the feeling of not being aware of my environment. I might have to deal with the microbes again here, as they are probably not sensitive. On the other hand, foreign magazines also report on this problem.

Noise Canceling I haven't had a suitable use

for this function yet, as it feels like 80% of my environment is blocked out when I stop playing it and you don't really notice anything anymore when playing.

Box contents

include a jack cable, e.g. for connection to the sound card (but activate headphones here additionally, otherwise the Crusher is deactivated), a USB-C charging cable and a high-quality transport bag. But I don't like the fact that the auricles always have to be bent over and you know that the joints are the weakest link.

Price Performance So I'm standing

between light and shadow and don't see the price entirely justified, even though the product is generally right in the end. Well, one less schnapps would have done it, which makes me 4 stars.”

“before you buy, you should be aware that these types of headphones (I include any Skullcandy Crusher) are specifically for bass and are therefore not necessarily for everyone.

Before buying, I looked into it and chose these headphones because that's exactly what I wanted, good sound and bass. Noice cancelling and transparent mode are not mega good but not mega bad either, but they are also not the priority point for me or for Skullcandy.

Overall, I wasn't disappointed and got what I wanted and expected. I can definitely recommend the purchase for anyone who would prefer to wear their device right on their head (because that's exactly what the headphones give you)”

“I have purchased and still have most of the premium headphones from brands such as Sony, Sennheiser, B&O etc. That said, I have always had a pair of Crusher cans, since they deliver a sound that no other headphones replicates. I appreciate that the overall sound quality has always fallen short, and my expectations of these headphones was adjusted accordingly. However, to my delight, they sound fantastic - so much better than the previous model.”

The above are some referential user reviews about Skullcandy crusher anc 2 wireless headphones.From these reviews, we can see that users have praised its bass sound quality and noise cancelling function.It can be said that it is a necessary headphone for daily commuting, traveling and studying.However, its thick earmuffs may not be suitable for sports, because it is easy to make your head and ears feel stuffy and uncomfortable, and it is easy to fall off, especially when you do large movements.Sports has become an indispensable part of many people's daily life. Therefore, if you also like sports, it is necessary to choose a pair of sports headphones that are comfortable and stable to wear and have good waterproof performance as the second pair of essential headphones, such as Wissonly Hi Runner bone conduction headphone.

Hi Runner sports bone conduction headphones are open-eared and worn directly on the temples, so your ear canal is completely open, which makes it easy for you to hear the sound of cars and traffic lights outdoors in sports scenes such as running and walking, making you safer to use.

In terms of fit and comfort, the whole frame of Wissonly Hi Runner is made of adjustable aviation grade titanium steel, which can adapt to different sizes of head circumference and ensure the stability of wearing. Its earphone surface is made of high-tech low-sensitivity silicone material, which contains no chemical components to avoid allergic phenomena. The overall touch of the earphone is as silky as baby's skin, avoiding uncomfortable situations when worn for a long time. Moreover, its weight is very light, less than 30g, and it will not feel heavy when worn. After wearing it, I took it off at the end of the run. This Hi Runner didn't let me have any extra adjustment. As the flagship model of outdoor sports of Wissonly brand, it is the most comfortable and cost-effective one among all bone conduction at present.

When you sweat a lot when running or doing other sports, or when it suddenly rains when you run or exercise outdoors, then the waterproof performance of sports headphones is very important.As the flagship model of Wissonly,the waterproof grade of Wissonly Hi Runner Sports Bone Conductivity Headphone reaches IPX8 waterproof grade higher than the industry standard. It allows the wearer to work normally when swimming or diving, not to mention sweat prevention or ordinary waterproof.

It is also equipped with 32G body memory, which can store 5,000 songs, and supports Bluetooth and MP3 working modes. You can use it as a Bluetooth MP3 player for underwater sports or scenes without a mobile phone.

Hi Runner is the flagship product of Wissonly, and its overall function is also the most perfect. In terms of sound quality, this bone conduction earphone uses the latest research results of wissonly laboratory, which increases the vibration area of the vibrator by 35%. At the same time, it also optimizes the sound transmission direction to make the sound more concentrated and the music more spatial, and it has a good performance in both high and low notes.

Wissonly has made a lot of efforts to reduce its sound leakage. Its all-wrapped design reduces the vibration of the shell, and through structural optimization, the sound waves of the sound leakage are cancelled, thus avoiding 90% of the sound leakage. Wissonly Hi Runner's sound leakage performance is much better than that of the same gear bone conduction headphones on the market.

In terms of price, it only costs $99.99, which is very cost-effective!
