If anyone's on the fence regarding these cans, just get over the sticker shock and buy them. Worth every penny!!!

You seem a bit bitter about the price?

I'd love a set of Sony R10s....but oh well...maybe one day.

Why shouldn't I be?  If they werre £300 I would be more tempted to try them.

Here is my story so far, I recieved them like i said sometime around beginning august and enjoyed them for about 3 weeks after about 3 weeks the left side loosened up where the wire enters the actual earphones and the sound started crackling and it soon faded away, anyways I sent them in and Shure sent me a replacement 2 weeks after sending them in. I was once again excited to be enjoying my wonderful 535's for about a week and now the nozzle broke attempting to remove the black foam olives. I am sure Shure will handle this again with great service, but still this is dissapointing to see that I have had issues Twice in such a short period. Anyways just wanted to let you guys know.

I had the same problem. Just got my replacement back today. Hopefully they will not break again soon.

I´ve got an important question about se535 nozzle. Sorry for my english. Trying to take the foam from the right side I get in the hand with the foam and inside a cilinder from the nozzle. At first it looks that its broken, but then i can take the cilinder and put it again in the nozzle. Its this normal or its broken? Don´t know if you understand what i´m trying to say.

If it´s broken, it fits perfectly and the sound doesn´t change very much from one side to another. But hope someone could tell me something about that. Thanks!

PD: Or its better to replace that side of the IEM?

Try taking some picture and it will much easier for us to understand your problem that way.

SE series all has this problem (new ones like the 425 i'm using)? I haven't tried to change tips yet but it seems that the fit is really tight.

Here I post some pictures of what has happened:

So now...it´s this normal or it´s broken

The nozzle is ok, just "broke" the sleeve, not the IEM. Just use other sleeve and its ok.

All you did was rip off the plastic sleeve from the foam tip, the housing is undamaged.

However that is usually an indication that you are pulling the tips off a little too aggressively, there is a method where you use your fingernails to gently twist and pull the plastic sleeve at the bottom and twist and slide it off. 

The sleeve shouldn't be ripped out like that, it risks cracking or snapping the tube.

Thank you very much for the reply.
