I'm leaning towards the 535le's, and if I did get them in the future I might upgrade the cable but anyways.  My only concern is that some say they aren't good for fast music?  Like with rock music (mostly stuff like blink 182, my chemical romance, the offspring, black veil brides, we came as...

Usually a high school classroom with a few people talking.

Well what really draws me to the 232s is the comfort.  Although I do have the se215s and I don't mind them.  And with regards to isolation it's mostly just in school people talking and stuff.  

I listen to everything but mostly rock, alternative, slightly indieish stuff, pop, and singer songwriter acoustic type of stuff.  I want something with a wide, but natural sound stage, impactful, but not overwhelming bass, good vocals, good separation, good isolation, all that stuff.  I narrowed...

My mobile set up is a rockbox 5.5 with shure se215s.  My non mobile set up is shure 840s or phiaton ps500s with an auzentech prelude sound card.  Also dahlquist dq30 speakers that could use a dac but I don't use it a whole lot but anyways.  I listen to mostly rock, alternative, pop, slightly...

Main requirements: very good sound isolation, and really comfortable They are for pop, rock, alternative, and rarely classical.  The source will probably just be a laptop or something.  As for the way they sound, not too bass heavy, and they're not really for an audiophile anyways.  Any ideas?

  Quote: I have a pair of the all black ones and some of the black/white cord ones (none are mine dont worry) and they sound pretty bad.  Also the plug kind of broke on one of them too.  And the little ear things would always fall off.  Probably a scheme so you would have to buy more.  

Well it only shakes the room when I turn the sub up a lot.. Just because it's fun.  But when I'm actually listening it's usually set down more.  My mains are some pretty good jbls, but can't compete over this sub when it's really going.  I'm too young to go to clubs too.  But thanks for the...

Quote: When the 32 and 62 hz is all the way up on the eq on my auzentech prelude  and bass boost about 1/2 up, I actually hear bass.  Without all that, this song for instance - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DOJ9CC4FTYA There is constant bass throughout the whole entire song, and...

Shure 840s and Phiaton ps500s.  Also just finished building a super loud sub.  But thats also no reason as to why they are basically bassless.  My old $25 koss in ear things that are gone now had way more bass.    

I've been using the medium foam ones the most.  I thought a bad seal could be the only reason too, but I've tried every single tip.  All bassless.  Do I need to get different tips or something?

Flac, mp3s, whatever.  I'm pretty sure it would have been plugged in all the way at least one of those times.  Eq off, on, same thing there too.  So I guess Ill ask shure about it then.

My laptop, mp3 player, and auzentech prelude sound card.

I've tried like all the tips it came with and I'm getting hardly any bass. I've been using them for about 3 days now.  Any ideas?

I'm not seeing them for $70 at musicians friend.  And with shipping at the other place it would be $92.  Also my mp3 player doesn't have exactly the highest audio quality.  Would an amp or some sort of dac or something help?
