Looked in your profile but no info, which fiio amp are you using with them?

Just as an addendum I would like to say that the SHE responds very well to my cheapo Fiio amplifier.  The bass especially gets a moderate cleanup and a nice boost.

Also, has anyone heard anything about the SHO-9577s?

Very bassy earphones. The SHE3580 is a better earphone. Those Speckled SHO phones are just fancier SHE9551s I checked out earlier. I ended up selling those..Warm and way too bassy. People are paying a premium just for a fresh color and a braided cord which emits even more microphonics. Those are a fail. I would wait till the new Philips earphones hits soon. I will report as I plan on getting one upon release here in about 2 weeks on Amazon. Will tell everyone on this thread how those are. I hope they make a better SHE3580 is what I am thinking.

so i discovered a friend with the SHE3581 (i think its just the white version of the 3580) and i was very impressed... especially for the price.
Thumbs up here
 
soon I will try the bassy xeports and taste their hype as well but the phillips are great portable/sport/care-free phones.

Anyone bought the SHE3680? How does it compare to the SHE3580?

I'm considering the Thermaltake but does anyone know how they compare with other headphones around $50-60? I know that we've come to the conclusion they're $200 Audio-Technica rebrands but like how do they sound compared to Brainwavz M2, Soundmagic Pl50, NuForce NE-700M, HiFiMan RE-0? Just curious.

Well. To be certain. It was a good guess but the isurus could be made by Audio Technica but I don't think they are an exact rebrand of their CKM77 or the CKM99.. I have the CKM77 and there are similarities but the CKM77s are superior in sound and are at another level of SQ. The isurus is a solid value at the current asking price and have surprised many.. For $25 or so they are worth a try for sure.
 
I think it will depend on what your sound preference is. If you want detailed more analytical sound the isurus it is. If you want more of a v shaped Fr fun sounding earphone the CKM50s is what I would recommend.

Ah hah! Good to know. I quit following for a while and never got an answer or a comparison of the TT to the AT. Either way, the TT are pretty badass for the asking price. Definitely a great value.

I just picked up the a pair of the SHE-3580s and SHE-3575 with the mix.  I figured they would be the exact same except one with the mic.  I just tested both of them, and let me tell you, right out of the packaging, the 3580s sound WAY better than the 3575.  The 3575s are lacking in the bass dept IMO.  
 
Mainly listening to drum n bass atm.  I think I am going to let the 3575s settle in and see if the bass gets any bigger.

@jarbro I would check the SHE3575 on the mic and headphone out on a phone first to make sure you're not getting improper sound because of iffy compatibility between 3 ring jacks and 2 ring sockets. That said I wouldn't be surprised if they indeed sound different. The SHH3580 sounds different from the SHE3580 too.

Thanks again for the heads up on the bargains!

I have both, JAZZ are more neutral, due having bass less extent than SHE.

Depends if you like with more or less bass, Jazz have enough .
