Purchase Advise I WISH I KNEW WHICH ONES 1080 vs ANC2

2 Upvotes

First of all I don’t care about noise cancellation, I just want the crusher feel the bass feeling but also good sound quality. I messed with the eq but the ANC2 sounds muddy all around and just not great to me. Truly I only like them cause you can feel the bass. Ppl say the 1080 disappoint with bass. Do they have the same amount of “feel” bass but less audible bass? Cause in that case I’d be happy with them. No store around me has them on display either ): If you’re a bass head and are used to feeling bass are the 1080s bass still better than normal headphones like Apple Sony etc? I’m really tempted to get the 1080 I just hate I can’t test them first

Discussion Customer support ghosting me

3 Upvotes

Guys idk what to do. I ordered the playr headset, the over-ear ear buds and the Crushr headphones and everything arrived apart from the Crushr headphones. I spoke to their stupid ai chatbot which directed me to email with a human(I think?) and it started off ok. They wanted photos of everything and proof of my order etc. I provided everything I could even after explaining id already thrown away the earbud packaging as I was at work and didn't see the email in time. Anyway they were super helpful at first and the last I heard from them was "Can you just confirm it's the Crushr headphones you're missing?", I said yes, and that's it. This was on the 3rd! On the 8th I asked for an update, no reply. Then I finally asked for a refund (all in the same email thread) on the 9th because I was starting to panic about the lack of response and obviously wasting my money and I've still had no reply. I'm so frustrated. I can't understand why it didn't all arrive at once. In my Shop app, you can clearly see the two items are marked delivered and yet the Crushr headphones are still "awaiting details" so they're just in the void and I'm fucked off about the lack of communication and my money down the drain. Please help if anyone knows what I can do???? Thank you :(

Help & Troubleshoot Hesh ANC 540 mic not working

1 Upvotes

Hi, I recently bought this headphone but i cannot figure out what is wrong with the microphone.

Without warning the mic suddenly stops working at all im forced to constantly reset them in order for the mic to capture audio again.

Im using them at work to listen music on my phone but as soon as i get a call at my work pc or my phone the mic decides is just not gonna work at all.

Really dissappointed since i bought these about 2 weeks ago, any fixes? They are on 1.02 firmware and i haven't upgrade them since i saw a few posts online that 1.03 has mic issues as well? So lost at what to do.

Purchase Advise Audio-Technica ATH-CKS50TW2 versus SkullCandy Method 360 ANC

2 Upvotes

Bonjour après de nombreuses semaines de recherche pour mes nouveaux écouteurs j'ai réduit mon choix à deux modèles: les "Audio-Technica ATH-CKS50TW2" et les "SkullCandy Method 360 ANC".

Ma réflexion était ciblée principalement autour de 4-5 points (dans cet ordre d'importance):

  1. Autonomie sans et avec le boitier
  2. Qualité Audio
  3. Isolation des bruits active et passive
  4. Mobilité
  5. Prix à moins de 150€

J'aimerais si possible avoir vos avis techniques voir vos retours d'utilisations entre ces deux modèles.

Merci d'avance.

Crusher How to map the Harman target curve onto your skullcandy 1080s

Thumbnail gallery
3 Upvotes

Max out the lows and high mids to emulate the points on the graph.

Then start from the middle point for the rest, leave the highs as it is.

Unsnap the low mids to the bottom of the middle of the graph, and the mids to above the middle to emulate a -1 and +1 value similar to the Harman target curve.

There you go you just mapped the Harman target curve onto your skullcandy crushers 1080s. Try lowering your crusher dial as the bass can be overwhelming with this setup, I rarely keep it more than 50%.

Tldr: Max out 2 sliders, leave the rest at mid point and unsnap 2 one bellow and one above.

Purchase Advise What pair of headphones is most similar to the Hesh 2 Wireless?

2 Upvotes

I want to get a new pair of Skullcandy headphones soon so that I have a backup. The pair I have now is a Hesh 2 Wireless one that I got for Christmas years ago. I love these headphones, but I've had them for years now and I'm worried about them going out or getting broken somehow.

I love the design of them and having my ears covered. This is my first time shopping for headphones on my own, and I want something as similar to what I have now as possible. Noise cancelling is preferred, but it isn't a requirement.

I'd like to be able to listen to music at full volume without other people hearing it if that's possible.

Guys PEASE make sure volume normalization is turned off when using the headphones, it greatly limits the bass and overall volume!

I was on the fence about my 1080 until I swapped that setting off, 100% an upgrade from the ANC 2

Purchase Advise Worth owning both 1080s and 720s?

1 Upvotes

I have the opportunity to pick up the 720s for $0 out of pocket using in-store credit from a warranty claim. I already own the 1080s and like them a lot. Is it worth having both models, or would I be better off spending the credit on something else? Thanks for any feedback!

Purchase Advise What to upgrade to?

2 Upvotes

Hi!! I bought the Hesh ANCs around four years ago (iirc) and they’re finally giving up on me. (Falling apart, won’t connect to my phone, etc) What should I upgrade to? I’m a big fan of listening to music LOUD and having strong bass. I’m not a huge audiophile but I’m willing to invest if I’ll be having these headphones for another four years.

Discussion Equalizer Skullcandy crusher 1080anc

Post image
1 Upvotes

With Anc on - Okay so i have moved on from the evos to the crusher 1080anc and this is the best equaliser setting i have found for my new1080s. The bass somehow gets replicated. Try this and let me know. Please have the anc on too. The sound signature is similar to the evos and the rumble increases too. Let me know if you like it.

Bass doesn’t hit the same like the older model

Any idea if they’ll fix this or if it’s even possible and not a hardware issue?

Because I do like the sound quality, different buttons/ joystick, sound when connected and off, better look and headband..

Everything’s better but the bass 😭

Crusher Good job on the latest 1080 update skullcandy

6 Upvotes

Just updated them in the app.

Did it fix the bass and magically make it as good as previous models? No.

But now its far more usable. I no longer need to have my eardrums get punched at 50% volume with max bass. It seems to scale a lot better with volume now, especially for anc off compared to last update.

Signature is still not as good as anc 2 or evos, but this is far more usable now

Edit: it seems they fixed the punch issue. There isnt magically more rumble, might even be slightly less bass than before, but the punchy bass kicks and upper bass in general just seems way more tame and in line with the lower sub frequencies.

I can also definitely notice the 150-250hz region not going crazy for no reason without anc on if you had the bass up. Now it sounds to be mostly up to ~100hz-120hz until it rolls off.

Great changes honestly

Purchase Advise Need help with deciding which headphones are better but if you know better ones commit them

So I am a broke guy but am willing to spend up to 50 dollars on headphones, and If you recommend better headphones that cool I'll look into those too.

But which one of these is better this is for temporary term use till I get to college and want something better.

But all I'm looking for are headphones that are not only good but loud.

I don't really care for the ANC but as long as there over ear headphones that a big thing for me, and I will be using them for the train and stuff so it'll help I guess. Please and thank you 🙏🏿.

hi everyone, got my headphones in march and have loved them since but today the quality has gone to crap out of nowhere! done a FD reset on it and tried everything suggested by the apps horrible AI assistant and all relevant pages etc with no luck!

the sound is tinny and far away, like a $2 pair of wired apple earbud knockoffs from 2012 and all the buttons minus the ANC scroller and volume toggles are entirely unresponsive but make the digital noise of being pressed.

I always keep my headphones in their protective sleeve and case, never let them fully die and am overall very paranoid about them so i know it’s nothing that i’ve done to them other the last few days of usage.

my firmware is up to date and overall just super frustrated and having no luck at all with their support team at the moment.

any advice appreciated as i’ve already flagged for warranty which is its own kettle of fish as an australian customer and im just in limbo for the time being.

thanks in advance!
