The Sensory Haptic Bass feature has long been the defining attribute of the Crusher franchise and is widely recognized as the only audio experience of its kind. The new Crusher Evo Bluetooth 5.0 headphones boast a further refined version of the hallmark platform with more multi-dimensional haptic vibration patterns across a wider range of bass frequencies.
"Skullcandy fans have always loved Crusher because it truly delivers a one-of-a-kind immersive bass experience. It allows users to not only listen to their music or movies, but actually feel them. Crusher Evo takes that immersion to an even higher level than ever before," says Jeff Hutchings, Skullcandy Chief Product Officer.
Together with the Sensory Haptic Bass improvements, Skullcandy has partnered with Sweden-based Audiodo to offer Personal Sound, allowing Crusher Evo users to adapt the headphone's response to their unique hearing profiles.
The user simply connects the headphones to the Skullcandy App, then takes a quick audio test to determine their unique Personal Sound Profile in both left and right ears. The Audiodo technology then automatically adjusts the incoming audio levels to optimize the sound of the headphones to each individual user's profile. "The remarkable result is that users typically hear layers and sounds in their audio that were never perceptible to them before," the company states.
"We know that everyone's hearing is different," says Hutchings. "So it's no surprise that what one person may deem as 'great sound' may not be great for someone else. The Personal Sound feature enables everyone to find that ideal balance of audio levels that are matched precisely to them and only to them."
Headquartered in Malmö, Sweden, Audiodo has used over 30 years of experience with acoustical algorithms and digital signal processing to design one of the most advanced audio personalization technologies currently available in consumer electronics.
When the two advancements are combined, users of the SkullcandyA Crusher Evo headphones will enjoy an experience unlike anything else available on the market.
"The result of bringing together our patented Crusher haptics with Personal Sound by Audiodo is something that's pretty mind-blowing the first time you experience it. In testing, we found it really enjoyable to see how surprised people are when they hear and feel what they've been missing. There's just nothing like it," Hutchings concluded.
Of course, the new Crusher Evo headphones have also been designed and engineered with a wide range of features to meet today's lifestyle wireless demands, including long-lasting 40 hours of battery life, rapid charging (4 hours of play on just a 10-minute charge) and a full suite of media controls directly from the headphones. Users can take calls, change tracks, adjust volume controls and activate native device assistants (Google, Siri, etc) — without ever touching their phone.
A new Built-in Tile finding technology allows Crusher Evo owners to easily "ring their headphones" to locate them if ever lost, while the flat-folding and collapsible design allows for easy portability, together with the streetwear-inspired carry case. An auxiliary cable is also provided for non-Bluetooth connectivity.
The new Skullcandy Crusher Evo headphones are available now in True Black and Chill Grey color for $199.99.
