Skullcrushers

These noise canceling headphones take care of unwanted sounds, all right—and not with new-fangled technology, mind you. The team behind the Skullcrushers takes it back to the old-school, utilizing padded earphones and an optional bass-boost powerful enough to jiggle your liver. Wear these while playing video games and the experience will be intense enough that you’ll never crave a significant other. Skullcrushers were made for those of us who just don’t want to be bothered by humans or other useless noise—so they’re perfect for work. Skullcrushers even come with an airline adaptor so you can watch Sister Act (again) without having to pay five bucks. If you’re used to ear buds, these hefty earphones will take some getting used to, but they’re well worth the adjustment. www.skullcandy.com.
