Sony ULT WEAR
Skullcandy Crusher 1080 ANC
The Sony ULT WEAR offer a lighter, more conventional take on bass-heavy ANC headphones, while the Skullcandy Crusher 1080 ANC make the physical sensation of bass the main attraction. Sony's ULT button lets you choose between three levels of bass, whereas Skullcandy's wheel provides continuous control over the amount of haptic bass they produce. The Sony are lighter, more stable, deliver more consistent bass across different fits, and come with a protective hard case. They also block slightly more everyday noise, and their mic separates speech from loud backgrounds more effectively. On the other hand, the Skullcandy have a longer battery life and more versatile wired use: their analog and USB-C connections carry audio and mic signals, while the Sony's analog connection is audio-only.
