so my skull candies are going flat, i have to buds not sure what they are called but they sounded amazing...until they have this like high pitch scratchy noise in the back ground, first question what causes that? and second what are the skull candy headphones that have the bass booster on them?

not really sure what your talking about being flat. my smokin buds, that i listen to daily, are completely fine. the headphones with the bassbooster is mostlikely any of the dj ones. hesh, lowrider, gi, ti, ect... hope that helps

all my skullcandy headphones have broken... they always just stop working because of the way i wrap the chord around my ipod or whatever...
but i really like their style... its so tempting to keep buying new ones.

hmmm... not really sure what to tell you. if you don't mind not having the headphones for 2 months just send them to skullcandy explaining whats wrong. they might do something about it they might not. just depends

there is probably a hair in it. it happens to some of my headphones, if you take the hair out they should be fine. if it doesnt help, theyre perminantly broken. hope that helps.

dont bother with skullcandy. get something thats not overpriced and that sounds good. the $20 sony headphones you can get at walmart sound better than T.I's and G.I's

ive had my TI's for two years now, and used them every day, and they still sound super good.

Their noise-cancelling is so good that my parents always think Im deafening myself cuz i cant hear them while i have them on... they are so nice... i got them for 80 bucks...

^lowest end and lowest price: ink'd for 25..... not recommended

smokin buds-kinda good: 30

Titan- i hear theyre pretty sick: 50

Full metal Jacket-highest end and sickest: 80

I think the titans are the best deal....

try sennheiser hd212 pros.

they look decend, and will have as much bass as the gi, but with 10x the clarity and overall sound quality. very nice and every part is replaceable seperately. i recomment them

$50. the right choise.
