The Good:

These headphones are the most comfortable to wear that I have ever tried. They aren’t too tight and the materails aren’t too “sweaty” which is nice. This is an important item for me since I can’t stand phones that hurt or feel gross after being used for a half-hour or so.

They look great! The coolness factor is very high.

The ear-coverage is excellent. I have big ol’ ears so this is key — they block out a lot of outside noise which is good since I wear them a lot in a server room. I don’t have to crank the tunes up too loud to drown out the noise.

Decent high to mid-range sound.

Cool case in which to carry them around and extra set of pads are nice.

The Not-So-Good:

I agree with a few other reviewers on the lack of bass. For the price, I would expect even better sound and surely a lot more bass. The overall sound quality is not bad, however I expected a little more bang for my buck. I get similar sound quality and a bit more bass from my Sony MDR-V150 at 1/4 the price (though the coolness and comfort factors aren’t nearly as high).

I still like these headphones, but I am betting for the price there are better quality phones to be found.

I really wanted to love these cans. For a while, i convinced myself that they were great. In all honesty to myself, there not worth it. If your looking for a condensed opinion: Not worth 70 bucks, arguable worth the 40 I paid. For anyone who wants more detail, here’s my in depth breakdown.

Look: Great. Obviously. Very great looking, these headphones have gotten several compliments from people.

Feel: The white/fur headphones are very comfortable for about an hour with the fake leather ear pads and are comfortable indefinitely with the fur pads. Unfortunately, those pads aren’t great looking for a guy.

Sound Quality: Definitely the most important aspect of the headphones. The sound quality gets an above average but its nothing special. If your a true audiophile, avoid these phones like the plague.

Volume Level: Here is the first major problem: these things just aren’t that loud. The standard sub par ipod earbuds are louder. Personally, this is a HUGE drawback

Durability: They feel pretty weak, it would take barely any effort to snap these things clean in half.

Overall, these headphones are… adequate. If you want a pair of headphones that look great, but lack in volume and sound quality (for the price) then i say buy them. If you care more about sound than style pass on these headphones.

I won’t lie, I bought these because they’re pink and I dig the styling of the Skullcandy brand.

Before you completely write me off, I’ll also mention that I’m an audio professional and have bought many a non-pro quality pair of headphones and been far less satisfied. These puppies *are* functional as well as cute. Sure, you can spent another $200 to get a model with a much better bass response and a more comfortable fit — but the two products are not suited for the same purpose. These are not studio grade or intended to be worn 8 hours a day. They are fine for casual use and suit me well when I’m listening to iTunes or trying to catch up on last night’s episode of Lost without bugging everyone else in the office. I’d give it 5 stars if they had a little bit less of the head-squish factor. It’s a big set of phones so they’re going to tire your ears (and possibly lead to a headache) if you wear them for more than a couple hours at a time. Not the end of the world, but it is noticeable. Overall, a good value for the money (I paid $42) and they are definitely cute.

I really didn’t think that I would like the fur. Skull headphones always are tight on my head, so wearing these with the default leatherette ear pads was a tad uncomfortable. So I swapped them for the fur pads, and wow! Instant Teddy Bear comfort.

The sound is OK. They aren’t the Bose, but also don’t come with a Bose price tag.

There is a 3.5mm cable coming out just one side, which isn’t too long. Unlike earlier models of their headphones, it doesn’t detach (too bad too). It ends in a 3.5mm jack. Then they come with a little longer cable to hook up with it, which also ends with a 3.5mm jack (they come with a gold-plated adapter though, so no worries.) The cabling is white to match the headphones, so that is a nice touch, looking polished. The side of each phone has nice embossing-another polished touch. These had some thought put into their looks, and don’t look dorky like my last SC Proletariats. So, overall, I am happy with these (they are SC’s replacement for a warranty, as described below).

You’ll wanna know that this company really does honor their great warranty. I had purchased one of their other headphones here at Amazon. They developed a short in them. Now their warranty states that they’ll replace them for free if the problem is on their end. If the problem is because you mowed over them, they replace them, but you pay 50%. Now I was concerned that the company would say to me that the short was my fault. So I sent them in for warranty (consumer pays shipping–and one may wanna insure too), and I hoped for the best. Well, I received better! They no longer carried my $100 model, so offered me a $100 credit to use for ANY item(s) on their website. I ended up with Full Metal Jacket Chrome buds AND this TI model, which went way over my $100 credit. Guess what? They shipped BOTH for free, and didn’t charge me for the extra! Now this is an honorable company that bends over backwards to please. I am certain SONY, BOSE, etc wouldn’t give me the time of day. Also, their customer service was patient with me, as I had many questions about the models. They answered each in a very timely manner. After spending about 1 1/2 weeks choosing, they said it would take a few weeks getting to me. Yep, exactly that too. Now if SkullCandy could give other companies lessons on what it means to honor a warranty…

Just received my headphones today and I must say that I am quite impressed. Out of the box I plugged it in for some “drills”. First was to hear how fast these 40mm Titanium drivers could go – and… it passed with flying colors. It’s speed was very crisp and very clear. Following high speed response test, was a homebrew bass test which my headphones, prior, didn’t pass. Passing all but the last, which was nearly inaudible anyway. I then wore them for several hours and the leather touch earpads were a nice feature, but after the third hour my ears became a little sore. The volume, in my opinion, wasn’t too loud, and the bass, in combination with a little knowledge of the utilization an EQ, it will balance well. The only part of the headphones that make me a little wary is the break in the cord where your able to control the volume, it appears to be made from a light gauge of plastic and may be vurnerable to crushing or fatigue. I was also pleased to find that it also came with a gold plated 1/4” adapter and an extra pair of earpads… Oh, and a sticker. :p

But with all things considered, I was most critical with the sound quality, and – for the price – that is what passed so well. No, they aren’t Bose quality headphones – but they aren’t priced like them either, so it isn’t as fair to contrast and compare. 5 for 5 from me.
