The Crusher Evo don't block out the world with ANC, but they use their battery for something else. They're packed with vibration motors that activate when you turn the bass up to full, making sure that you can feel the bass. Like subwoofer, but like, for your head. Sound is otherwise fine, and the fit is comfy, but we all know you're buying these for the bass slider. And that's fine.

In order to give you as much of the low stuff as possible, the Skullcandy Crusher Evo don't just feature a bassy tuning. There's a little slider on the left earcup that dictates how much bass there is, from 'a lot' to 'good lord, that's loads of bass'. The best bit? When that slider maxes out, the headphones vibrate. And, not just from the sheer amount of bass being produced from the drivers — there are little vibration motors that make the headphones buzz like one of those timers you get in busy restaurants.

Is it slightly unsettling when your headphones vibrate? A little. Is it also loads and loads of fun, as you feel every single bass note beyond its musical impact? Oh yes it is, although I'm almost certain it's making your brain vibrate in a way that its not supposed to shake.

There's 40 hours of battery on board, although that does drop when you max out the bass slider. There's no ANC either, but there is an option called the Crusher ANC that includes ANC and the bass slider, but they're a fair bit more expensive.

This Prime Day deal makes the Crusher Evo even more affordable, dropping them under $100.
