Product Information

Full details

The Skullcandy Crusher 540 Active headphones are designed for active individuals seeking an immersive audio experience during workouts. Their key benefit is the powerful, adjustable sensory bass that enhances motivation, combined with a sweat and water-resistant build for durability. A potential caveat is that the intense bass might be overwhelming for users who prefer a more neutral sound profile for activities other than high-energy workouts. Key features include multi-sensory Crusher Bass, a 40-hour battery with Rapid Charge, moisture-fighting nano-coating, breathable ear cushions, and a secure clamp-force fit for active use. The Skullcandy App offers further customization through Personal Sound and button remapping, while built-in Tile finding technology provides peace of mind.

FAQs

How do I adjust the Crusher Bass?

You can adjust the intensity of the Crusher Bass using the dedicated slider located on the left earcup of the headphones. Slide it up to increase the bass level and down to decrease it.

How long does the battery last?

The Skullcandy Crusher 540 Active headphones offer up to 40 hours of listening time on a single charge with standard usage. Battery life may vary depending on volume levels and use of features like Crusher Bass.

How does Rapid Charge work?

Rapid Charge allows you to get approximately 4 hours of playback from just a 10-minute charge when the battery is low. Simply connect the headphones to a power source using the USB charging cable.

What is Personal Sound and how do I set it up?

Personal Sound, powered by Audiodo, creates a custom audio profile based on your unique hearing. Download the Skullcandy App, go to the Personal Sound section, and follow the on-screen prompts to complete a hearing test. The headphones will then adjust playback to optimize sound for your hearing.

Are these headphones truly waterproof?

The headphones feature a moisture-fighting nano-coating that makes them sweat and water-resistant, suitable for intense workouts. However, they are not fully waterproof and should not be submerged in water.

How do I find my lost headphones?

First, ensure your headphones are registered in the Tile app. If they are lost, open the Tile app on your smartphone; it will show you the last known location of your headphones on a map. You can also trigger a sound to play from the headphones if they are within Bluetooth range.

Can I use the headphones while they are charging?

Yes, you can use the headphones while they are charging via the USB cable, but this may impact the effectiveness of the Rapid Charge feature.

Troubleshooting

Headphones won't turn on

Ensure the headphones are charged. Connect them to a power source for at least 10 minutes and try again. Check if the power button is being held down correctly.

No sound or low volume

Check the volume level on both your device and the headphones. Ensure the headphones are correctly paired and connected via Bluetooth. Try re-pairing the headphones with your device.

Bluetooth connection is unstable or dropping

Ensure your device's Bluetooth is enabled and within range. Turn off and on the Bluetooth on your device and headphones. Minimize interference from other wireless devices or physical obstructions. Try forgetting the device in your Bluetooth settings and re-pairing.

Crusher Bass is not working or feels weak

Ensure the Crusher Bass feature is enabled and adjusted correctly using the slider on the headphones. Check the sound settings within the Skullcandy App for any bass-related customizations.

Cannot find headphones using Tile App

Make sure the headphones are powered on and within Bluetooth range. Ensure the Tile app is running and that the headphones are registered in your Tile account. Check the battery level of the headphones.
