Skullcandy Hesh Headphones - 2011 - 2009

Blast the few brain cells you have left with the Skullcandy Hesh Headphones. Skullcandy gave these ‘phones an eardrum-pounding 50mm power driver and a sound-boosting dome shape for skull-shattering clarity at a ridiculous price. The supple leather headwrap and earcups make the demise of your hearing a soft and pleasurable experience. Adjust the in-line volume control to hear what the old dude babbling to himself on the back of the bus is saying, then turn the tunes back up when you realize his end of the world routine is a little stale.

Bottom Line: Who needs cell brains?

Leave your mark on The Wall.

Good headphone, good quality! Cancels noise pretty well so I like to use them on the plane and in car rides. If worn for an extended period of time they do start to pinch your ears/: but overall good headphone!

Hey Thomas Edwards,

Thanks for the question. Comparing the Skullcandy Hesh Headphones - 2011 to the Hesh 2s is easy to do as the Hesh 2s have the Supreme Sound as Skullcandy had revamped their sound for 2012. The difference is pretty apparent as the bass is mellowed slightly and the surrounding other channels come through much better, especially vocals. Certainly a different sound than 2011 versions.

I tend to break headphones, often. Usually by falling asleep with them and wrecking the cord, or catching it on something and wrecking the cord, or by crushing my headphones in my bag, or some other disaster, but these ones are holding up pretty well so far. I've already managed to sit on them a couple times, and catch them on my bedroom door handle countless time-which has ruined three other ehadphones that i can recall-but these guys are holding up solid. Better yet, they sound AMAZING for the price. the bass is solid, and they can get pretty loud, which I am a big fan of.

Finally, first sign of wear, the right ear piece is starting to come off the can, I just have to slide it back on from time to time when they are traveling in my bag. Doesn't affect the sound or comfort in wearing them.

Have been using these almost non stop since I bought them, and amazing enough, they are still holding up PERFECTLY. I've dropped them and had them in my back pack in my trunk while I drove around, even fallen in them a few times, and all I have to show for it all is some minor scratches on the casing. These are the best headphones I've ever bought, especially for the price.

By:

Had these for almost a year now, sound quality isn't as good as my Skullcrushers but they have proved themselves with their durability, I've brought these on many trips around the world, jamming them in my pack and such. Sound quality is pretty good, I just wish they would fold up somewhat because they aren't the most portable when stuffin in my pack.

Great for the mountain. But on those cold days, beware taking them on and off alot because they 'might' break when you pull them apart a little. But i'm on my second pair, sound is awesome. Plenty of complements from people.

Amazing

By:
May 15, 2011

These are the best headphones ive ever had. They have amazing sound quality and great bass. If you want crazy bass that shakes your head then get the skullcrushers, they have built in subwoofers, but lack the sound quality and durability of the hesh. So if you want to hear parts of your songs that you've never even heard before, get these ones.

If you like the style, get 'em.

By:
October 22, 2009

I dug around online, and this is the cheapest you can get these headphones (the exception being the ugly tiger stripe ones, which I found for 30) with no shipping (as long as you buy something else for >$10). They actually sound pretty great, especially with bass-heavy music. Also, when you take 'em off and turn the volume all the way up they actually sound really good... like better than my laptop's speakers. They're a tiny bit uncomfortable if you wear them for a long time, but it hasn't been a problem for me, though I have heard other people complain hard about the comfort issue. If you like the style, I'd pick them up. If you think they look ugly, you can find ones with the same sound quality that are a little more comfortable for the same price.

Sound is great, but I dont like the small hard to feel dial for volume. I prefer slide style controls. Also I got the black and white cause the pic showed it looking grey, but its really black and BRIGHT white. Ill post a pic to show you. I dont really like the color, but now right after I bought it, I see dogfunk got a shipment of actual grey, AND some sweet brown ones. Wish I would have waited a few weeks.... SIGH.... :( I posted a pic under the other Hesh listing.

Below Average.

By:
January 31, 2010

Bought a pair of these a few months back, and upon hearing them for the first time, I thought they were defective. They are all bass, with almost no high end. The result is a muted sounding earphone, that leaves a lot to be desired.

I got used to this, and do appreciate the bass, but my old cheapies had a better tonal range than these.

Not long after I bought them, they snapped in half. The insert that allows them to extend to fit large noggins is paper thin, and if they take a knock while they are in this position, they're screwed.

Despite that, I was still able to use them by taping them up. But now, it has 2 loose contacts - one at the jack, and the other where the cord enters the ear - resulting in one or both sides dropping out.

And if style is important, look in a mirror before a pair of Hesh. I feel like a frigging wanker walking down the street with these on. It looks like I'm wearing 2 painted grapefruit halves.

Skullcandy did not reply to my first warranty claim on these, and I'm about to make a 2nd. Lets hope this time they get back to me.

Better would be the skull crushers, especially if you like bass. These headphones have an amp to power the sub in each headphone. Turn the bass all the way up and the headphones will acutally vibrate. Thats what I use for boarding and walking around campus.

Good sound Bad Durability

By:
March 17, 2011

I got these for christmas i love the sound quality and how good the bass is but after a few weeks they cracked then snapped on the part that extends out for a wider head. I do really like them and i take really good care of them i only used them for around the house things or at my school. I was NEVER rough on them but im on my 2nd pair and they did the same thing so im probably gonna try a different model and see how well the durability is. BOTTOM LINE GREAT SOUND BUT NOT SO GREAT DURABILITY BE CAREFUL WHEN YOU EXTEND THEM OR THEY WILL SNAP LIKE A TWIG

By:

These phones are bomb when it comes to audio quality, but are pretty harsh on my ears. I use them mostly when i'm editing footage and sit with them on for hours straight while they slowly push and rub on my ears. Also, my pair just cracked due to the all plastic expansion slider (why skullcandy thought that'd be a good idea...) Quality is awesome and the bass kicks great. If you're looking to buy, weigh quality vs comfort.

fantastic set of cans. havent had them to long but they seem to be really durable as far as plastic goes. sound quality is unparralleled for the price as far as i know! great bass pretty good high range. the only reason these arent a five star- ive got a rly fat head and they're pretty tight. they stick to mah dome great but they cause a slight headeache after a while. PS great noise cancellers! electric animals ftw they're sick. Probly to big for shredin but great headphones i love em

I own both pairs, I've had my Hesh's for about six month now, and they have held up amazingly, longest lasting cans I've ever owned, one of the ear pads is just starting to show wear, and I use them every day. The sound is great, bass kicks, and they get pretty loud, I am absolutely pleased with them.
The skullcrushers on the other hand I will never buy again, they need a AA battery to run, and the bass doesn't even sound good, it's more of a vibration, but the thing is, I can hear all the hinges of the skullcrusher rattle agains my head. I think they are total garbage. The only plus I see in them, is they collapse really well, so they don't take up much space above my closet, where they have sat after only two days of use. Plus, the battery is bulky and on your cable, it has to clip on you somwhere, and I kept getting ti in the way of things I was doing.
Hesh, FTW!

The Hesh headphones sound pretty good for the price. The problem is that if you plan on wearing them for more than an hour or two, they start to bother your dome. So these might not be the greatest for long air plain rides. Love the in-line volume and colors. Seem pretty durable so far...

So far they seem pretty durable as well, I've taken them out 3 days so far, 1 day in powder, and the composite leather seems to handle snow pretty well.

I was kinda skeptical buying these, but for the major discount I got on Brociety.com I couldn't resist.
I've been through several sets of various kinds of headphones at my job, and the Heshes are easily the best. They cover my entire ear and pretty much drown out any outside noise, which is impressive as I sit on a riding lawnmower alot. usually I don't pump up the volume too much (because I don't need to in order to easily understand my tunes, even over the grrrrring of the mower) but I know that I can without worrying about blowing out the speakers.

Fantastic buy, unless you want some ear buds. these are definitely not for the incognito.

I love these headphones soooo much! The sound is amazing and I think they sound better than the Aviators if you are listening to music with bass! I wear these 8 hours a day, 5 days a week at work and have no complaints except they do get a little sore on the ear cartilage after a while, but what headphone doesn't? I will definitely get another pair when this one dies. I'm on my 3rd year with the same ones so these are lasting a long time!
