5.0 out of 5 stars EXCELLENT FOR GAMES AND MUSIC, December 14, 2005

These appear to be rebadged AOpen HP-590 headphones, which explains why I haven't been able to find the AOpen's here or elsewhere since they are now renamed.

These headphones are an excellent bargain. I have been using the same pair for almost two years. I bought two pairs thinking they would break quickly like other brand subwoofer headphones I have previously used. Thankfully, they have proven very durable despite my dropping them while still plugged in many times. Once you use these for gaming or music, it is hard to go back. It's like being in a car with a nice subwoofer.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good for the price....but not audiophile quality, March 6, 2006

This review is from: Skullcandy SCS-SC Skullcrusher Subwoofer Stereo Headphones (Green) (Electronics)

I cannot afford to spend several hundred dollars on headphones, so I decided to try to find what I could get under $100, preferably way under and still get quality. When I saw that I could get an industry first subwoofer and a ninety dollar headphone for about $40, I decided to go for it.

They are worth the money you will pay on Amazon. They do look and feel cheap, but I still think they will last. Their sound is average at best without the subwoofer........very little bass.
The subwoofer does a lot for the sound. They really do more than vibrate.......they really give good quality bass.

The problem is the high end and midrange is lacking and a bit subdued. If you like rock or hiphop, or if you use it for gaming, this will be a really good headphone and a good buy. But these are not audiophile high end headphones by any means. Though I kept the Skull Crushers, I decided to upgrade to the Grado SR-60's for another $30. They were worth the cost and are the best deal for the money. I just depends on what you are looking for in a headphone and how much you can afford to and want to spend.

5.0 out of 5 stars This Headphone Rocks!!! (Rocks right INTO your head!), December 15, 2005

This review is from: Skullcandy SCS-SC Skullcrusher Subwoofer Stereo Headphones (Green) (Electronics)

I have tried Sony V700DJ, it is OK but too expensive so I have to draw back.
Now I'm having this Skullcandy Crushers and I love it! This is what I summarize my feedback to the headphone:
What I like:
1) The bass amplify is really good even I haven't turn on the subwoofer vibration.
2) With the subwoofer vibration on, this headphone really rocks right into your head. The sound is solid and clear (not like some of the headphone emphasizes great bass but music come out blur and distorted by the 'strong' bass.
3) Very comfortable and won't hurt your ears after long hours of using.
4) Personally I like the skull icon, looks cool and the leatherette pouch gets another credit.
5) Comes with airline adaptor jack and 1/4" stereo adaptor jack, so that I can use it on flight or playing guitar.
6) With the quality of this and the price of $35, what else can you ask for?!
What I dislike:
1) Material is a little "cheap"
2) The middle joint of the headphone looks easy to fall apart, though mine is still good, I have to "handle it with care". (but I think it happens to most of the other headphones, even the expensive ones, check other review)
3) It would be better if they can make the subwoofer control a little smaller.
That's it. All the dislikes, I'd deduct half star on the rating. But this headphone worths it. If you are not a pro and just want to enjoy movies, games, music, etc. at home. Skullcandy Crushers won't disappoint you.
