My friend had a set. They lasted all of 3 months before they broke and he went and bought some real headphones/earbuds.

I had them for over a year with no problem then one day the left speaker went.
This time I went with these for 30:
Had them for a year now and they're going strong so it's been worth the extra 5 or so because they are louder and the bass sounds better.
The only con they have for me is the material the insert in your ear is made out of. I run a lot so when it's hot and I start really pouring sweat they'll fall out. Big deal who cares, shove my finger in my ear and dry it out, put it back in. When that's the only con, that's a good head phone to me.

tsk tsk guys... don't go for the normal brands usually is my advice. skull candy sound like crap and have cheap build quality.
You can get a fiio e3 amp, and head-direct RE2's right now for dirt cheap, get something like that

I have a pair of SkullCandy Skull Crushers and they've got some serious bass for some headphones, they're the ones with the built in amp and subwoofers. Other than the bass the sound quality is good, but nothing special.
But they are broken right now, the right ear piece broke off. I'm pretty sure they have a lifetime warranty though so I'm going to send them back to SkullCrusher and ask for a replacement.

They are not going to compare to a $200+ pair of headphones, but they are good for the price. And they are definitely a step up from the ipod ear buds.

skullcandy are waay overpriced for their quality. Last year I got 3 pair of the big around the ear headphones and I only have 1 working pair left. Oh well, I got them for a 75% off discount brand new so I aint complaining

The best pair of cheap earbuds are jvc's marshmellows. Great sound for $20. Better than Sony and Skull Candy IMO.

I just said a setup that would sound infinitely better, much better build quality, and would cost about 36$ including shipping at the moment. They used to cost about 150$, but they're phasing them out. Infact, I picked up some 55$ IEMs that are a tiny brand that honestly sound better than my 150$ IEMs, and I prefer the sound signature to my grados sr125's.
New emerging companies with GREAT product lineups are where it's at when it comes to audio. Skull candies are not one of those.

:vomit: for the 300$ they want for those you can get a pair of dt770s and an acceptable amp to run them. I have a pair and I bought them back when they were more expensive (the dt770s) and they're still kicking ass two years later

For the 20$ and under category I agree, but once you hit 30$ and under without a doubt in my mind it goes to the RE2's

Don't doubt that at all. Can't find myself ever dropping $30 on a pair of earbuds though. Earbuds always get crushed, lost, stolen, etc with me.
I'm pretty set with my home chilling headphone. Can't go wrong with Seinhessiers. They blow skull candy's cans out of the water.

all earbuds suck equally, and increase hearing damage exponentially. Buy some real headphones.
