Skullcandy S6STBZ-09 - not out, curious
So. How bad we think these are going to suck? Any bets?

They seem interesting, if anything: YouTube - CES 2009: Skullcandy Stack Headphones

Adjustment nobs and whatnots. Huge, double driver design XD. God knows what they sound like, but hey, maybe they won't be so bad!

 

[chintimin]

May-be. I mean, judging by their track record, I wouldn't trust them to make a toilet up to college student standards, but... you never know.

 

[Armaegis]

Hmm, I like the vintage design... as long as they don't start slapping decals and junk on it.

And judging from what I see: how bad are they going to clamp? They look like clamp monsters...

Cheers

Honestly, we can live with them clamping a bit. especially since that's easy to tone down. I just don't see great things for them making a pair of headphones in the 150$ price range... but I could be wrong! Also, I really don't buy headphones for their "lifestyle", any more than I buy Grados for their "distinction"

They look like old Koss headphones.

The sound will probably suck.

I made a thread a while ago.... Here it is!

Skullcandy is funny.

Found it humorous as well. I bet it will be hard to drive though. 90 and 50 mm drivers?

They completely knock off the stanton dynaphase headphones

 

[Napilopez]

New D7000s anyone? Haha =P

 

[jbergan]

Is skullcandy a cult? What do I have to do to live their lifestyle?

 

[chintimin]

I don't know, but that video wants you to go to skullcandy.com and experience their lifestyle and culture.

 

[Empire]

Well some would argue that Apple is a cult...

 

[thammuz]

They look interesting, if I had the chance I'd try them out; I like the look, remind me of my Dokorder D-303s.

 

[chintimin]

Anyone know if these headphones died out?
