Skullcandy Aviator S6AVW-T740
72 out of 100 medium confidence 12 reviews
The Skullcandy Aviator 900 ANC receives mixed feedback. Many users praise its excellent sound quality after EQ adjustment, robust build, long battery life, and comfortable fit for average-sized heads. However, several verified reviewers report severe discomfort for larger heads, muddy default sound, subpar ANC compared to older models, and a lack of bass. The product seems to divide opinion strongly based on head size and sound expectations.
