The headphones are promoted effectively to active people (snowboarders and skaters), making them popular with teenagers and young people. One of the features that make Skullcandy's headphones popular is their "cool-looking" designs appealing to younger markets.
Skullcandy is now more well-known through sponsorships of different events, and its products are generally of high quality in all aspects.

Skullcandy headphones come with a unique audio technology that places them as one of the top brands in the headphone industry.
We've tried a variety of different headphones and concluded that Skullcandy offers fabulous headphones at a low price and many advantages that other brands don't provide.
HOW DO SKULLCANDY HEADPHONES DIFFER FROM OTHER BRANDS?

WHAT IS SKULLCANDY'S BEST PAIR OF HEADPHONES?
The Skullcandy Crusher is undoubtedly one of Skullcandy's top headphones. The headphones feature an inbuilt microphone and offer the highest quality sound.
One of the aspects that makes these headphones so excellent is their sound quality in any music. We've all seen that some headphones make certain styles sound better than others, but the Crushers have a well-balanced sound that can be used with anything. The bass is excellent, the design is modern and minimalistic, and although the name is "Crusher", their rugged build makes it very hard to crush them. Overall, Crusher is the best model Skullcandy has to offer.
It is available in the standard and noise-cancelling ANC version.
]]>As the name suggests, active noise cancellation is a technology that blocks the sounds around us, but it is important to know that there isn't a pair of headphones that will completely block out all sounds, but they can reduce the amount of background noise and make our surroundings much quieter. Let's look at the way noise cancellation works and whether it is suitable for your needs.
WHAT IS ACTIVE NOISE CANCELLATION (ANC)?
Active noise cancellation is a technology that blocks out specific elements of ambient noise. The most important word is active -The technology doesn't block out noise simply by trying to eliminate it. Instead, it listens to audio using the microphones in the headset and then creates a sound wave that effectively cancels the sound. The sound is deliberately and actively diminished.
The first time active noise cancellation technology was employed in practice was in the 1950s. The technology was founded on the patents of Lawrence Fogel, who is considered to be the creator of the technology. It was initially developed and utilized for aviation; the technology assisted in making it easier for pilots. Active Noise Cancellation is also employed in certain cars, such as Ford Endeavour (available in India) in order to make the car quieter. But the most popular application of the technology currently is in headphones for consumers.
THE ADVANTAGES OF NOISE CANCELLING HEADPHONES
All headphones can be described as "noise cancelling" in some way as they block external sounds by blocking your ears. However, even the most powerful pair of headphones cannot stop all outside noises like the engine of an airplane, so companies such as Skullcandy and others have turned to the field of science to address the issue.
Picture this: Sunday morning, your'e drinking your morning coffee and trying to write an important e-mail. Your wife is on a Zoom meeting while you're kids are watching their favorite TV show, on maximum volume. You're trying to be productive but the noise is unbearable. That's when your ANC Headphones come into use. Your noise cancelling headphones will create your surrounding entirely yours. You will be able to focus more at home, at work or at the gym.
Suddenly, noisy kids on the flight will be less of an issue and you'll be more likely to fall asleep on your yearly flight to Vegas.
CAN HEADPHONES WITH NOISE CANCELLATION CUT ALL SOUNDS?
Whatever noise-cancelling headphones you purchase - from the mose premium ones to the least expensive they will not entirely block all sounds. Contrary to what you might think, noise-cancelling headphones won't eliminate all sounds, and any sound that's not continuous will be unaffected. The sounds of voices, the use of tools, traffic noises and any loud noises will nevertheless go through your ears.
In general, ANC headphones are effective at lower frequencies of sound between 50 Hz and 1 kHz. This is the reason ANC is more suitable for cutting down on low, continuous sound like airplane engines and motors, and this is the reason that these headphones aren't able to block out screaming children.
WHAT NOISE CANCELLING HEADPHONES SHOULD I BUY?
1. Skullcandy Crusher ANC

Why do you need to clean your headphones?
Remove your headphones or earbuds and inspect the interior right now, if you can. Usually, months of blocked earwax, oil, and dust have built up in the tiny cracks of our headphones. We always shower and change our clothing after going to the gym, or after the morning run, because we are used to it. But when was the last time you cleaned your headphones, whether after a workout or at all?
Have you started to feel uncomfortable yet? We put our headphones into our bags, pockets, or anywhere else, where they mix with other dust and bacteria that has been accumulating there since who knows. That is a Fastlane to the doctor office with an ear infection, or worse.
What you'll need to clean your headphones:
A small rag
Paper towels
Hand sanitizer / Rubbing alcohol
Cotton buds / Q-tips
Soap
Water
How to clean earphones:
First, clean the driver unit

or blocked ear wax. To assist knock some of the debris off, lightly tap the non-mesh side (the side with the logo) of the earphones.
Then, remove the remaining dirt from the wire mesh using a bent paperclip with some cotton. You can also use a multipurpose adhesive that can pick up any undesirable substances. Lastly, put some rubbing alcohol or hand sanitizer on a small rag (use a small amount, since soaking the rag might harm your earphones), and clean the wires and the metal mesh.
Cleaning the ear tips.
Earphones usually come with detachable silicone sleeves/ear tips in varying sizes to provide the best fit for your ears.

- Before reinserting the silicone tips, wipe them, and let them dry thoroughly on paper towels.
How to clean headphones:
Cleaning headphones is a little trickier since headphones contain more "tearable" materials such as the leather or foam of the ear pads.
1. Remove the ear pads and use a small rag with soap and warm water to wash the headphones' exterior. Allow the headphones to dry thoroughly after wiping them with paper towels.
2. Wipe clean the exterior of the ear pads with a tiny rag with rubbing alcohol or hand sanitizer. Then, wipe the nooks and crevices of the earpads with a Q-tip/cotton bud soaked in alcohol/hand sanitizer.
3. Apply a small amount of alcohol or hand sanitizer to the foam mesh's surface and gently rub. This will aid in killing germs found on the ear pads. Any dirt or dust should be removed with light rubbing.
4. Before reattaching the ear pads, let them dry fully on some paper towels.
