If music is your fuel while working out, then Skullcandy Crusher 540 Active should be on your radar. With great bass, active noise-cancellation, and attractive looks, it is a muscular combo. However, the biggest setback for many may be discomfort while wearing it for hours. So let's deep-dive into the pros and cons of these headphones.

Design and Build Quality of Skullcandy Crusher 540

The charm of the Skullcandy Crusher 540 Active lies not just in the looks but also in the build quality. Attractive in looks with a sturdy matte finish and contemporary design. But it does tend to get a little heavy on the head, especially if used for prolonged periods over time. The cushioning of the headband and earpads is soft, but the comfort soon starts to fade within just a couple of hours, causing ear and head pain with continued use.

Sound Quality

The adjustable sensory bass is the primary selling point of these headphones, allowing you to increase or decrease bass to suit your liking. The headphones sound fairly good for wireless, with bass and treble balanced and loud enough to keep your attention while walking through a gym or on the street.

Noise Cancellation

Skullcandy Crusher 540 Active has ANC; it doesn't completely put a stop to all external noise making for a reasonably nice listening experience. Yet, its ANC doesn't quite compare with others in the premium range, and that is the downside to it.

Battery Performance

On the headphones, at least 50 hours' worth of battery backup is great for them; no way you will have complaints in case you forget to charge them because the rush hour didn't let you. Even quick charging is there: 4 hours of playback time for a mere 10 minutes' charge.

Comfort and Fitting

Probably the primary drawback of these headphones would be discomfort over extended wear. Sweat or pressure headaches would become a possibility with the heaviness and slight tightness pulling through.
