Shure MPA

post #1 of 4
Thread Starter 
so I recently bought an iphone a few months ago and Ive been using my d-Jays with them. one annoying thing is when im walking around listening to music and my phone rings, I have to dig to get my phone out of my pocket

been thinking lately of purchasing a pair of Shure SE530s and I saw they have the MPA adapter (basically an inline mic for answering the phone)

so here is my question. When you wear the SE530s over your ear, the cord will run down your back, so how exactly do you use the mic to answer the phone when its behind you?

might sound like a silly question but it is really baffling me and making me question purchasing the thing lol

oh and also, do all SE530s have this infamous cabling problem that I keep reading about? Or is it just the older, initial batches of them that had these problems? Would it be worth waiting for the 535s later this year instead?

edit: think I might have posted this in the wrong forum, feel free to move

Even if the cable is over the ear doesn't mean it has to go down your back, it can be infront just as well.

wow i never even thought of that lol

as a side note do you know if the Shure PTH will work with a phone? pick up/end calls etc

I don't know, since I have neither, but my guess is that it doesn't work for calling.
