I cant stand people who think Skullcandy is anything more than ok. Their weak plastic headphones with no sound quality at all. I dont see whats so awesome about them. Just because they have graphics on them doesn't make them sound better

people are actually freaking retarded. the reason that i keep going back to skullcandy is because of their warranty.


"All Skullcandy products have a limited manufacturers lifetime warranty in two categories:
-Aggressive Listening Discount: If your headphones broke because of a crazy crash on the mountain or a violent head-banging session, or any other reason that’s not a product defect, we’ll still hook you up with 50% off a replacement in our online store.
-Defective Product Replacement: The item broke for no good reason. Tell us what happened and we will replace a defective product with the same or an equal replacement.
Note: One product per warranty claim. We reserve the right to determine which warranty type your item qualifies for."

where else can you get such an awesome warranty on headphones?

Ive used the Koss porta pros for a season and the sound quality is unbeatable for the price. they  have a steel headband so they slip right under your helmet. Lifetime warranty.....nuff said

definitly sucks! icon 2s are terrible but not good by any means.. i ride with Bose and they work great but are expensive and break really easy..so i would say skullcandy is only good cause you dont care if you break them

I came here to say this. Definitely the best sound quality to price ratio I've come across.

personally i'm very pleased with my sk pros. i've had them for a long time, put them through their fair of abuse, and all they have to show for it is a bit of a bent jack and a couple little cracks in the joints. and the sound quality is great. i think it's more of a factor of getting what you pay for in terms of headphones. no cheap headphones are immune from defect. for example, my ipod earbuds broke after a handful of uses.

I find it hard to keep my Icon 2s on my head. They always fall off and shit and they are just a hassle. The earbuds from Skullcandy I believe are amazing for what price they are held at. I dont know if its just me or not, but Icon 2s always fuckin stop playing from the little button thing on the cord nocking into my gear.
