Our take on the Skullcandy Crusher 540 Active Over-Ear Headphones

The Skullcandy Crusher 540 Active is an over-ear Bluetooth headphone built for workouts, with an adjustable Crusher bass slider that adds a physical, vibrating thump to low frequencies. It pairs a 40-hour battery and 10-minute Rapid Charge (about 4 hours of playback) with a moisture-fighting nano-coating and breathable fabric earpads. A clamp-force fit keeps it planted during training, and the Skullcandy App adds Personal Sound hearing tuning and button customization. Against bass-forward rivals it trades some refinement for a more forceful, adjustable low end and a sport-ready build; against premium workout headphones it lacks active noise cancellation.

What reviewers say

Owners of the Crusher line tend to praise the adjustable sensory bass and long battery life, and the Active version's sweat resistance and secure fit are seen as sensible additions for training. Criticism centers on the tight clamp, the bass overwhelming detail at high settings, and the absence of noise cancellation.

What people mention

  • BatteryPraisedThe 40-hour rating and quick Rapid Charge top-ups are cited as a real convenience.
  • FitMixedThe clamp force keeps the headphone steady during workouts but can feel tight on longer wears.
  • Sound balanceCriticisedAt high bass settings, mids and vocals lose clarity and detail.

Questions and answers

Does the Crusher 540 Active have noise cancellation?
No. It is a noise-isolating over-ear design, not an ANC headphone. The sealed earcups and clamp reduce some surrounding sound, but you will still hear gym and street noise.
How does the Crusher bass work?
A slider on the headphone adjusts Crusher's sensory bass, which adds a vibrating, whole-body thump to low frequencies. You can turn it down for a more balanced sound or up for maximum impact.
How long does the battery last and how fast does it charge?
Skullcandy rates it at 40 hours of playback. Rapid Charge gives about 4 hours from a 10-minute charge.
Can I use it for calls and workouts?
Yes. It has onboard call, track and volume controls, and the nano-coating and breathable earpads are made for sweaty sessions. The clamp-force fit is designed to stay put during movement.
What does the Skullcandy App add?
The app offers Personal Sound by Audiodo, which tunes playback to your hearing, and lets you customize the buttons. It also supports the built-in Tile finding feature.
Does it fold for travel?
Yes. It has a flat-folding, collapsible design. It is still a full-size over-ear headphone, so it takes more bag space than earbuds.
