Skullcandy Crusher 720 Wireless Headphones

What matters most

Listeners who want bass they can feel—not just hear—are the audience for the Skullcandy Crusher 720. Its standout feature is adjustable Crusher Bass, controlled with a prominent wheel, so you can dial the intensity up or back instead of being locked into one setting. THX Spatial Audio is designed to add a more expansive, three-dimensional presentation, giving music and other audio a more immersive feel.

Battery life is listed at up to 65 hours, and Rapid Charge is specified to provide four hours of playtime from a 10-minute charge. The Skullcandy app adds a Personal Sound profile and access to features and performance improvements. From the way it is set up, the appeal is customization and a pronounced bass experience, not a neutral, minimal-sound approach.

Keep in mind that the bass effect is a defining part of the experience. Even though its intensity is adjustable, listeners who prefer a restrained or neutral presentation may find this tuning too prominent.

Size & fit

These are over-ear headphones, with comfort presented as a priority for longer listening. Skullcandy also says the Crusher 720 is 23 grams lighter than a leading competitor, but the comparison does not identify that product, so it is not a useful stand-alone measure of fit or comfort. There are no specific dimensions or fit adjustments listed here, if you have a particular fit concern, the available details do not settle it.

For a practical picture, they’re intended to stay on while you listen through a long session, then pause audio when you take them off. Wear Detect resumes playback when you put them back on, and the app lets you disable that feature. That’s convenient if you move in and out of listening, though it may not suit everyone’s preferred controls.

Tips for day-to-day use

Start with the bass wheel at a moderate setting, then raise or lower it for the track or activity. For a workout playlist, a stronger setting may be the point, for a podcast or a longer stretch of background listening, easing it back can make the sound less dominant. THX Spatial Audio and Crusher Bass are both part of the pitch, but the description does not specify device compatibility or how the spatial effect works with particular apps, so don’t assume a specific setup beyond what’s listed.

Use the app to create a Personal Sound profile and manage Wear Detect. If you take the headphones off briefly at a gym between songs or while switching activities, automatic pausing and resuming can cut down on fiddling with playback. The battery figure is an “up to” claim, so actual listening time can vary, Rapid Charge is a useful fallback, not a reason to ignore charging altogether.

Before you decide

Can you adjust the bass? Yes. A prominent Crusher wheel is provided for changing its intensity.

How long does the battery last? The listed maximum is up to 65 hours. Rapid Charge is specified to deliver four hours of playtime after a 10-minute charge.

What does the app add? It lets you create a Personal Sound profile and access features and performance improvements. Wear Detect can also be turned off there.

When it makes sense

It suits you if you want over-ear headphones with adjustable, high-impact bass, long stated battery life, and app-based personalization for listening at home or during fitness routines. You may want to skip it if your first priority is a more neutral sound or if you need detailed fit measurements before choosing. Compared with a simpler pair focused mainly on everyday playback, the Crusher 720 makes more sense when bass control and the immersive-audio feature are central to your decision.
