07-08 Skullcandy iCon Review
Skullcandy's iCon headphone is a super-lightweight pair of over-the-ear headphones.
The iCon is a great headphone from Skullcandy. The main selling point of the iCon is that they're lightweight. Slap them on over your hat and you'll hardly even know you're wearing them. I really like the way they fit over your head. The double-band means that it really hugs your head, but doesn't have any pressure points, the way a plastic band normally would.
The sound quality is pretty good, considering how lightweight and inexpensive the headphones are. They're a bit tinny sounding, and they crackle at high volumes, but you probably shouldn't be listening to music that loud when you're riding anyways.
It would be nice if the cord was just a bit longer, it's fine for most things, but an extra couple of inches would make a difference.
