    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!

    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...

    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.

    Yamaha EPH-100

    This seems to be a frequent problem, but it often disappears.  My solution is to put them in a little case with silica, to dry them out. I'm pretty sure the transient problem, at least in my case, is that my ears "sweat" into them, probably in the process described above. I'm not sure about...

    Audio-Technica IM50, IM70 Discussion Thread

    Perhaps bearning period will help. I do not remember I disliked them when I received them. I do not know if there are also possibility for fake ones. For me, after listening for them for over a month (I bought them on travel to Japan in  Yogobashi) I enjoy them very much. Furthermore, I find...

    Audio-Technica IM50, IM70 Discussion Thread

    Maybe your phone has an impedance that cannot drive them. With my Samsung note 4, and anything else I tried, they are beating any other earphone I have or tried. They are clear, very good low and high extension. They are not "basshead" earphones as many Audio Technica other earphones. The...

    Review by 'deepee' on item 'FiiO RC-SE1 Shure Replacement Cable'

    My original Shure SE215 was faulty, but the local Shure dealer respected the warranty without  any argument and replaced the cable. However, its the transparent one, and I would describe the color now (after nearly 2 years) as "dirty" and at some point it has shades of green (probably he wire...

    Yamaha EPH-100

    Here's a simple hack:   Take your least favorite original tip, and groom it around so that it only cover the earphone. This means that only the base remains, and it is no more triple flunge. Do it with the eartips that absolutely do not match your ears, since the ear tips are destroyed.  ...

    You can also try to magnetize the two parts by putting them adjacent to each other (without the rubber).

    Yamaha EPH-100

    Usually this is due to a well known problem of the EPH-100: after some moisture accumulate in the ear, it starts covering the grill of the earbud, and at some time volume is drastically reduced at the side where this happens. I read that this happened to quite a few people, not everyone.  I...

    Anyone seen the new Yamaha eph series (eph 22, 32, 52)?

    Looks like Yamaha is producing a large number of new in ears. The drivers are said to be 20hz-40khz (which animals need the 40khz level?)   They seem to differ very little from one another, with various technology improvements, I guess the eph-52 being the most lucrative. Also they have R...

    Yamaha EPH-100

    I wouldn't trust the seller's story without comparing with originals. However, it is a possibility that in some plants in China, same machines that are used to produce the original products are being used later to produce "unofficials" that are mass produced and pacaged to third party that...
