Customer Ratings & Reviews

These are great for working out. The bass beats every other headphone I’ve ever worn. I’ve found that headphones have been able to do just about everything speakers can do except replicate a subwoofer. That is until now. It’s nice that you get a slider to control how much bass you want. This way you can make your music feel a little warmer or like you're next to a subwoofer at a concert. The ear cushions seem sweat resistant which makes these great for the gym and probably makes them less prone to falling off during workouts. The headphones grip my head well and do not fatigue my ears. This being said I only wear them for about an hour and an half max. My workouts consist of rowing and lifting weights. They have never fallen off when rowing even when I’m sprinting. The only issue I’ve had with the headphones falling off is when performing lifting exercises that I have to do lying on my back. The overall sound is good. There are better headphones that destroy these it terms of sound, but the bass is unbeatable. And for working out I don’t think I’d buy anything else. Lastly the only thing I don’t like about these is the build quality. They just feel really cheap and plasticky. I don’t think they are worth $200, but I found them on sale. TL;DR Bass is insane. They don’t fall off except when lying on your back. Sound is good enough. Build quality feels cheap.

My long search for gym friendly headphones is over. With Great sound quality, amazing battery life and omg the BASS. Its beautiful. As a gym goer i dont have to worry about sweating so much it stays on my head pretty well doesnt move around much. I love these headphones. My ONLY problem with these headphones and the ONLY reason i didnt give it 5stars is because the headphones die while they’re still at about 20% (according to my phones battery life reader) HOWEVER it did take about 3weeks to die on me and thats with 2-4hrs of daily use. I would recommend and definitely would buy again. I do however wish they came with ANC but until then i will love the crusher 540 actives

Snug fit (it doesn’t get loose while running or working out). FYI if you plan on deadlifting and you’re the type that let your body slam down along with the bar (instead of controlling it back down), these headphones will loosen from your head and/or fall off. No noise cancellation but loud enough to drown out external noise completely. Bass is incredible. Great headphones! I haven’t worn them long enough to say how long they’ll last but 2 weeks in and they work perfect for all of my needs.

It has good connection to Bluetooth. It also has a dial button to easily adjust the amount of bass in headphones. The sound quality is good and fits over the ears well.

Really nice quality headphones. Good sound and comfortable.

I’ve been testing the Skullcandy Crusher 540 Active for workouts and daily use, and here’s the real deal: the bass is insane. Like, shake-your-head powerful. If you love feeling your music during lifts or cardio, these deliver. The custom audio mode and bass slider let you dial in your sound, and the battery life is excellent—easily lasting through long gym sessions and commutes. But here’s the catch: the fit isn’t perfect. For a pair marketed as “gym-ready,” they can feel loose during high-intensity movement. The ear pads are soft and easy to clean, but the overall design gets heavy after a while.

I love the bass and the sound quality, and when on sale for 100$, for a pair of really good gym headphones, that price cant be beat! I love the fabric breathable ear muffs that go over the ear, which is so nice! Although the quality and feel of it for sure feels cheapy but for 100$, f it, its gym headphones

Has great bass and good sound quility. I recommend them over any pair of headphones. The battery lasts forever.

Great sound for active life. Bass can be as little or as much as you want. Only issue that I have so far, is I wish the clamping force was greater. I don't have a huge head, but not small either and the slide around more than I would like.

The headphones are very comfortable and the sound is exceptional. I chose these over other brands because over all these really satisfied my taste for bass sound.

My son loves these headphones! I like the feature where you can toggle between hearing the bass or not. They’re very nice as well. Oh and the battery lasts long.

If the 540 Active looks very familiar to you, then you will discover there is a good reason for that. The Crusher 540 is a slight variation of the older Crusher EVO. The main difference being the 549 now has cloth ear cups instead of vinyl. The Crusher 540 Active comes in 3 colors, with mine being the dark color tagged by Skullcandy as "Coal." There are also Concrete and Soft color variations available. The Crusher 540 uses the same Skullcandy app and is set up exactly like the Crusher EVO. In the app you can pick from pre,-set EQ options or go through a process to create your own personal EQ. THE Crusher 530 Active is still using the older Bluetooth 5.0, which in 2025 is mostly outdated for any new Bluetooth products coming out. So overall these are very solid headphones, but we've basically seen this before..the bass slider is still the star of the show and these will provide skull rattling bass using the haptic bass method. While it's certainly not accurate or realistic, it is still entertaining and fun.

Super comfortable, loud, and ability to change the bass is a nice feature!

Awesome bass and sound quality. They also dont make you sweat during workouts like the standard crushers

Comfortable headphones. Not audiophile sound quality but very enjoyable if you like bass heavy sound.

Super comfortable to ear and great sound quality for the make it is a really well rounded headphone.

The headphones themselves aren’t bad at all. There decent for the gym, but they do tend to fall off your head if you’re doing heavy lifts or honestly even if you’re doing a type of bench workout, I’ve noticed they fall off pretty easily. The battery on them is amazing though I can’t lie about that sound quality I would definitely say it’s average. The base is what makes up for it.

I use it when I go outside jogging. It is never too heavy to wear and pretty tight on my head when I am exercising. The battery life is very good as I don't have to recharge for quite a while even though I use it very often.

Very comfy the sound is amazing. Use for the gym and can run comfortably without feeling like they will fall off

I love them, the sound the bass its on point. Mab the fact that you get a physical button to adjust the bass is perfect ypu can say the bass .assages your head. I bought 3 pairs 1 for my son 1 for my daughter and this oair for me cant beat the price way better than beats to me.
