    Shure SE846 Gen 2

    I am highly dissapointed from Shure! It looks like they expect people that have the ~$1000 earphone to pay anothe $1000 for a filter. But, perhaps this is not enough. I would be very surprised if the new filter can overcome the fact that beyond 10Khz, the old SE846 has, according to published...

    CHART | Balanced Armature-Based In-Ear Monitors & Technical Characteristics

    Since my Etymotic HF5 died (well, it has been crippling for many years, and I tried somehow to change the wires, to a limited success, I opened it and it looks like the BA in it is not what you wrote in the table, but rather ER073S 0952. I include a photo.

    Shure rmce-bt1 (Bluetooth Communications Cable)

    I think Shure's customer service is great. But the points raised here are probably uniform for everyone who has bought the BT1. Mine is also very very load with the SE535 but reasonable with the SE215 (although the voice is completely sibilant with both). The other problems reported also happen...

    Shure rmce-bt1 (Bluetooth Communications Cable)

    I just bought this BT1. First one, did not charge for more than 10 sec at a time, had to return it to the shop. Second one: For music it works well with my SE215 and my SE535. Good sound, fluent. But the phone calls are catastrophic: the sound I get is broken, sometimes repeated. This is on my...

    Yamaha EPH-100

    It seems that the problem is not item dependent but user dependent: if your ears tend to sweat, or you leave in a humid place, this problem will occur. It certainly occurs with my unit. My solution for it is the following: first, I always keep it in a small plastic container for earphones that...

    SE530/535 Acoustic Filter Mod: More SQ improvement than cables? Dampers!

    __________________________________________________ I don't think that Shure is interested in providing filters. For a corporate rational, it may not be a reasonable things for them to do, and their plant is, I think in China. Could be just too costly for them. I think that the fact that you are...

    CanJam London 2017 (July 15-16, 2017)

    Not clear about the differences between little movie and the advertisement: At least two companies that I wanted to see there, Shure and Etymotic, appear in the advertisement, but not in the running names of companies in the youtube movie. Can you clarify?

    Shure Announces Lightning Terminated IEM Cable @ CES 2017

    While Shure's price for the RMCE cable (not the lighting cable) is $29.99, which translates, if we add, say %10 local tax, to be fair, to 120 Israeli Shekel, the local Shure dealer here in Israel, Giveon Electronics, wants 260 Israeli Shekel's for this same cable, which is, in todays currency...

    SE530/535 Acoustic Filter Mod: More SQ improvement than cables? Dampers!

    I have spares of green dumpers (actually from my HF5), I ordered through Mouser. I'm happy to send them in exchange of a pair of grey or white filters :-)

    SE530/535 Acoustic Filter Mod: More SQ improvement than cables? Dampers!

    Please look at the following discussion (the very first post). It has a table (I am not responsible to its accuracy).    http://www.head-fi.org/t/604851/chart-balanced-armature-based-in-ear-monitors-technical-characteristics

    SE530/535 Acoustic Filter Mod: More SQ improvement than cables? Dampers!

    First, the dampers modification described here is for Shure SE535. Are the dampers on SE315 also compatible with the white? I was always wondering about this modification. When some people wrote that you hear better treble but after time it was annoying, I thought, maybe the Knowles filters...

    The Etymotics HF5 Thread

    For the HF5, you can order the Knowles green filters from Mouser. It works!

    The Etymotics HF5 Thread

    Yes. The only time I saw that with earphones. I used an old HTC provided earbuds, and exchanged the wires. This is possible if the wires you use (like HTC) have the standard coloring. Otherwise, lots of trial and error. Also, at the end you need to reinforce the wires, otherwise they will be...

    Whats the best Balanced Armature iem you have ever tried?

    Here are some BA based earphones I own(ed):   Sony XBA30: Crisp and overall balanced. Have plenty of every part of the frequency range. But build quality was really poor. Felt like left side is considerably louder than right ear. Tried to open the foam and fiddle with it, only made it...

    Ultimate Ears Triple Fi 10 Thread

    Don't know. But this is exactly what happened to me a couple of years back. You try to remove the cable, and ....arghhhhhh, the wire from inside are torn away. So frustrating, this is a few hundred dollards IEM, you would not expect they would me it so flimsy.
