Skullcandy’s bass-boosting Crusher headphones now come with Bose’s ANC

Skullcandy has released the Crusher 1080 ANC headphones, which integrate Bose's noise-cancellation and spatial audio technologies. The new model aims to improve audio clarity while maintaining the brand's signature adjustable bass-boosting features.
Why it matters
This collaboration represents a significant shift in the audio market, combining Skullcandy's niche bass-heavy appeal with Bose's premium engineering to reach a broader consumer base.
Skullcandy announced a new version of its Crusher wireless headphones today featuring a few of Bose’s audio technologies including its QuietControl ANC and head-tracking spatial audio. The Crusher headphone line differentiates itself from the competition through the use of both full-range and dedicated bass drivers in each ear cup to boost deeper frequencies. Skullcandy admits that approach can result in a loss of audio quality when the bass is heavily boosted, but its new Crusher 1080 ANC are meant to address and improve that with Bose’s help.
