Hi...im new here so not really experienced. I want to ask if shure se 215 special edition is a good choice. I like a lot of bass but dont wish the bass to sacrifice the treble mids and highs. I like pop music (maroon 5) and songs with great bass impact. Any suggestions would be highly appreciated. Thx

Would also like to add that my price range is 100- 200 dollars

Honestly you probably want something with more bass, the Monster Turbine golds are on sale at radioshack for $180?

SE215 SE is solid, but if you are a bass had that wants beats level(quantity wise) bass, turbines(better bass then beats, not more) are good as well.

Ive tried the se 215 special edition and think that their bass is quite powerful enough... So i dont think i would like more bass. However, are the highs and mids still good with the se 215 special edition?

Mids and highs... SE215SE is definitely better.

Personally, would you go for the monster pro gold or the shure se 215 special?

Personally, I would go for normal se215 because i don't like much bass. But if i had to choose, se215se would be my choice.

Well, I don't think he wants an v shaped iem. Also, it's way out of his price range.

How about Future Sonics Atrio M5 or Yamaha EPH-100? The bass is really good in those.

No, but seriously, it's when the high frequencies and low frequencies are attenuated rather steeply so that the resulting graph looks like a "V".   Decades ago, we used to call it "smiley eq" 

, which is now considered a "u".
