Definitely good bang for the buck in those.... however the open design makes it annoying to listen in public places. I personally went with the PX200's for this reason and was not disappointed. The earpads are quite a bit more comfy as well IMO. They seem like mickey mouse in comparison to my current Beyerdynamic DT770's; those headphones are pure aural sex.

Brian, those skullcrushers remind me of the old Panasonic Shockwave gear I had back in grade 9. I think they also had a vibration servo in them. Very cheesy indeed! The only Skullcandy headphones I haven't disliked were the full metal jackets, but they pale in comparison to any Etymotic buds. It seems they were more concerned with appearance and bass boost than tonal accuracy (like 90% of the other brands as well). However, since you've got 50% off, I guess it's a good deal if you don't have any half decent headphones yet.
