Skullcandy is back with a new pair of wireless headphones, and this time, they’re going big on sound by Bose. The $279.99 Crusher 1080 ANC will have several new Bose technologies that are the first to be marketed in a non-Bose pair of headphones. Among those firsts is Bose’s QuietControl ANC, which allows users to finely adjust the level of ANC so that it’s better tailored to their environment. It’s also adaptive, meaning it can change automatically depending on the loudness of your environment. This isn’t novel, exactly, since a lot of headphones allow you to control ANC levels, but it’s more granular than other similar features, which usually only have a few levels. © Skullcandy Another first-ever for the Crusher 1080 ANC is TrueSpatial audio with head tracking, which is designed to make music sound like it’s playing from speakers in front of you, adding a sense of dimension to stereo tracks. I don’t love spatial audio features most of the time, but Bose does a decent job as far as AI-enhanced audio goes. Bose’s WaveForm audio engine also makes its debut outside a Bose product here. This is a proprietary audio processing technology from Bose that’s meant to balance acoustics and dynamics and keep voices and music clear, even at high volumes or with a lot of background noise.
