I was just curious if anyone could give me some insight as to whether there's something wrong with my earphones, or if this is simply the way they are. I'm thinking about sending them in to Shure, or Earphonesolution, or wherever they need to be sent to be checked and/or repairs/replaced...

I'm about to pull the trigger for either a pair of Shure SE535 or Westone UM3x and ordering custom tips for the one chosen so i'm about to fork out quite some money.   Thus i'd really appreciate some detailed impressions from people who has actually  owned both of them (I do not need the...

I've only had them about 2 months.. I haven't even got the custom sleeves in from ACS yet!   I noticed last night that the left ear is not working correctly, the volume is very, very low on it. I cannot manipulate the balance to get the volume up enough on that side to match the other side...

I have $500 budget and have been reading over 20000 posts for a month now and still can't decide.  I know it will be the biggest price ticket earphone I commit into.  I'm currently use Etymotic HF3 for my iPhone but sometimes the sound is not quite what I expected.  It is a bit more tiring after...

I've recently bought a pair of Shure SE535s, after previously having a pair of SE210s, which cable torn two years and a month from purchase (what an odd coincidence!). Having not the greatest ear moulds in the world, I naturally needed to try a few sleeves. Thing is, you can't get them off...

Thanks to somebody else on this forum posting in my SE425 vs. SE535 thread, I found out that http://www.electronicsforless.ca/ has both of them on sale! They're selling the SE425s for $279.99 (in both clear and bronze, though bronze isn't in the site - I just called) and the SE535s for $429.99...

I know of the Shure se530/535, but before I buy a pair are there any other less expensive IEMs with really forward midrange that Im not thinking of? Im not too concerned with other parts of the spectrum, just really forward and clear midrange.

My first post... I've been reading these forums for a while and appreciate reading the wealth of knowledge you all have.   Basically I am looking for a new in ear.... I work as a producer for a living and spend most my time in loud studio enviroments. I usually have my engineer at the front...

Before you guys tell me to use the search button, I have, and nothing really seemed to answer my question. I have a few hundred bucks to blow on a new pair of headphones, and since I'm done with Monster (until they give the Turbine a wire that's durable like the Tours or hell, the Solos), I'm...

I'll be honest, never really been in to music, but that doesn't mean I don't like music.   I thought maybe what I was listening to music with was the problem.   So a few days ago I bought my self a pair of Shure's SE535s. I plugged them in to my desktop and I think they sound just like...

Alright, I'm slightly confused. I've been reading such positive reviews on the Shure SE535, so I thought I'd go and demo them. To my surprise, I wasn't wow'd by them. I started listening to Dev (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FDfUjM-vygI), which is pretty bass heavy and the Shures didn't really...

It has been about 2-3 weeks that I bought my SE535s and enjoy it a lot!   However, there is a slight issue that I found (for me anyways). Just before buying the SE535s, I had some SE115M+ and bought some Comply tips because it would be compatible with the SE535s as well.   With the...

Hi guys. Could anyone, please who owns Shures SE535 check for signs of anything like the stuff in the pictures (see the photos). It seems to me that some plastic on the nozzle has been scratched a bit. Now I am wondering whether I have done it myself trying to remove those blimey foams with my...

Has anyone who found the SE530 to be a tricky fit--I did, with the main telltale being inconsistent soundstage--found the SE535 to be any better in this respect?  

I heard that the Triple.fi 10 is good for rock, can anyone confirm that? My budget would be min. 250, and max.500 USD. I am stuck between the Shure SE 535 and the Triple fi 10. Can anyone tell me the differences between the SE535 and Triplr fi? I can only get the Shure for around 575 (couldn't...

Hey guys,   Up until now, I have been happily using my pair of Custom SuperFreQs (triple driver). Unfortunately, one of the earphones isn't working anymore and the company appears to have vanished so repairs are not a viable option. Having said that, I'm now in the market for a new pair of...

  I am looking for a pair of noise-cancelling headphones that will best suit my traveling (12 hour flights) and in-home needs (plugged into my laptop). I am specifically looking for a pair of noise-cancelling headphones under four criteria:   1. Comfort 2. Sound quality (not a bass...

    Hii guys... I just joined the forum. I'm rather new to this audio business, and im looking forward to learn more about audio with you guys.     I get bored of those crappy headphone like the candys, and the cheap headphone out there. So few weeks ago, I decided to buy a pair of goods...

I have owned IE8 and UM3x and greatly preferred the um3x. Looking for something like that but for <$100

$700 for the RSA Predator, Earsonic SM3, Sansa Fuze and Steve Kelby Interconnect. Will probably be running this through my ipod though, rather than the Sansa as it has limited space.   Will I regret it? I guess the beauty of it is if I don't like it I could just resell at nearly the same...

Folks!!   Need your help here...   I am new to this forum and am trying to get help so I can buy the right headphones for me - I am going to buy a pair of IEs and also a pair of closed cans...   Being a musician and audiophile, I care greatly about sound quality. Mostly - balanced...

Been listening for 1-2 hours since received this morning.....   Pretty remarkable IEM.  The first words out of my mouth to describe would be incredibly detailed, transparent, balanced and natural sounding.   It is a different animal in that it has this airiness where all the harmonics...

Listen to all sorts of rock music. Need a new pair of in ear headphones. Was looking at the 535 or 425, not sure if it's worth the huge price gap. Or anything else I should consider?   Thanks for your time,

My wife's birthday is this Sunday and I bought her a Sansa Fuze and have been busy loading it up with new songs and tweaking Rockbox ... and I didn't even stop to think about getting better headphones than the ones that came with the Fuze. But now I'm thinking about it ... and I have one day to...

I own a pair of Shure e500's and they are literally falling apart.  The cables are cracking in about 12 different places.  So I'm in the market for a new pair of IEMs.   I've tried the IE8's and the SE535s but didn't like them that much... I'm thinking about trying the Westone 3's as they...
