Skullcandy Venue: Is it good enough just to be good?

Manufacturers of headphones have almost stood on the shoulders of each other in the year for selling wireless headphones to a very hungry market.

the Explanation is, among other things, that many mobile phones today are sold without the normal headphone jack, which has been a part of consumers to consider a new wireless model.

As the investment typically starts at 1000 dollars, if you want to have a fairly well-functioning model, to think about. How is byggekvaliteten? The wireless connection is kept without any interruptions? And of course: how is the sound quality?

Skullcandy is one of the producers, who in recent years has marketed several series of well-designed, modern and, not least, inexpensive headphones. But at the same time put themselves in the layer between the cheap and a little too cheap. And it is a dangerous place to place, showing one of the company's latest models, over-ear headphones Skullcandy the Venue.

For a little over 1000 dollars, as the news costs, you get an active støjreduceret headphone at the same time have got built-in the so-called Tile-system. With it you can easily locate the headphones from the special Tile app, get the headphones to make a sound, when you go in søgemode.

You can also on a map view, where the headphones last lay, for example, if you have forgotten them at your work or in school.

The noise-canceling function is activated with a press of a button on the headphones. And during our testing served precisely this function, as one would hope. During transport or other times, where there was a need to close the world out and keep the sound inside, the supplied headphones the product.

The same can not be said about the sound quality during conversations, which was disappointing. Here are the Skullcandy, unfortunately, not alone, since most wireless headphones trays during telephone conversations.

We are also not impressed with neither the build quality or the design. The headphone is a little clumsy built, creaking in the plastic and works on the whole, not as a long-term investment. The age of simply too much both on the head and in the bag.

For the price the sound quality on the headphones is good, when otherwise the wireless connection keeps. There is plenty of bass to download for those who need it. However, contrary to other reviewers, we saw the balance between bass and treble as in order.

As always, it is a good idea that you test the headphones in the store, and get a sense of whether the sound image is now also suitable for the wants that you have.

We will permit ourselves to call the audio experience for the average good. It is our judgment also of the rest of the package, which is 'just good', but neither perfect or flashy.

And therein lies the problem about Skullcandy Venue and the answer to the question in the rubric. In this case, it is not good enough just to be good. At least not if you want to invest in headphones that look a little further than to just open the sales up.

Our advice is, therefore, that you save a little more up, throw away 500 crowns extra into the pot, and then check it quite a big market with alternatives.

These here is not to over-ear but on-ear and a build quality that beats the Skullcandy with several lengths: he made kate Q Adapt the B&O Beoplay H7 or Beats Solo3.

And can you live with the in-ear headphones instead, you can for almost the same price buy Danish Jabra Elite 65t, both the design and sonically is of a premium car when compared with Skullcandy Venue.
