Hi Gloco, similar problem here, the 530s fit just sweetly, but can not get the 535s to seal, I blame it on my small ears, so if the lady in a view posts up gets a seal, I eat my monitors...maybe she does, but I can only get a bass when I push with my fingers. I hope a custom sleeve  can solve...

I just got my 535s to replace the 530s which had a broken cable I soldered back together, but that will not last long as it is going in another places, and also the other rubber part are falling of regularly, they had it. There is quite a lot fo change to my ear, the 535s are a lot more forward...

Funnily enough, I have the opposite experience, SE530 fit well, the SE535 is comfy, lies flat on the ear, rather than in the ear, but I can not get a good seal, so no bass (well not very good anyway) and not as good at noise canceling....I have small ears, have to use the smallest olives/foams...

My last couple of CDs Queen- Absolute greatest, great new mastering, really improved Billy Idol- Idolize yourself Music to Go - Expressions, they sound like a modern ABBA, like it or not.... Doors-4CD Boxset, some demos and many good, vibrant life performances

Hello Haycheng, I heard a lot of hiss with my SE530s before I used the , strong from laptop, a lot weaker from ipod. With the shadow there is no hiss at all....I turn itunes and laptop up full, and then get this signal to the shadow. All you hear with the Se530 is a very slight feeling that...

Cheers Punnisher, what a lovely description.....I am in the middle of making my first LOD, i am glad I got the soldering done, man these pins are tiny ...I ruined one dock with too much solder, I bought 3 ipod connectors, just in case....will tell you in a day or two if and how it works! Got...

I don't know the theories....but I have got the 840s and here is what I think they sound like/compare to the SE530s I usually use with the shadow: http://www.head-fi.org/forums/f4/rev...ml#post6164630 The shadow drives the 840 very well in my opinion, the SE can damage your ears badly, the...

Hello Joel, I must be what you call an an audiophile.....bought the 840s, and I love em. The soundstage is much wider compared to the SE530s, but I don't know if that makes sense, they also are less "precise", in locating sources and in clarity. There is like a slight mist on the sound...

Is there a way to get the dock in Europe?

My shures have been posted today , 135 pound , (or 226 "over the pond" quid) I think that is a steal for the UK.....hope to be able to tell you in a day or two what I think of them!

Cheers pianist, that was just what I needed to make my decisions between the M50 and the 840s, I wanted soundstage, and the shure got more of that.....a shame I read this review after I robbed my credit card for the shure's...at least I wont regret it now or have the nagging feeling Thanks a...

Hello joel, seriously good advice.....I was thinking of getting some closed cans, for my good and in the best interest of my surrounding.....I was thinking of Beyer DT250, Sennheisers HD250 pro or Audiotechnika ATH m50, seems like the shure are in the same price and similar performance...
