Ok price, not massdrop worthy for sure. Man, I remember back in the days I got a pair from Future Shop on sale at 60 CAD! It's too bad that the MRSP shot up since, creating a false impression that this is a good price. Otherwise they're a very durable and excellent isolating pair of buds.

Beware people, there may be some counterfeited se215m+ floating around. I've bought a BNIB pair from kijiji (basically a Canadian version of craigslist). Everything checked out, but the sound is different from my old pair of se215 (sold a few years ago but bought at future shop). Also, the...

I'll maybe try the mod if I ever find myself needing more bass. Thanks for the tutorial.

where did you buy them?

I got the 7010 a few weeks ago while they were 20$. I wanted an alternative to the Shure SE215 I have (didn't like having to put them on and take them off while in the office, plus the over the ear look is dorky). They sound pretty good, quite on the warm side. I have a few quibbles though: -...

Just received mine today. I have the same initials impressions as you. The pads are ok comfort-wise except for their slight roughness. They do get hot though. The headband isn't an issue. I haven't got a chance to audition any Grado/Alessandro  before jumping the gun so the sound sig is new to...

Quote: Agreed. Isolation is somewhat subjective. You won't get the same isolation as NC headphones or IEM but the m-80 blocks out most of the surrounding noises. I had the xb-500 and they were definitely bad at isolation on top of leaking a lot. And they looked ridiculous on my head...but...

Quote: I find them to be adequate. By that, I mean that you'll still hear the announcements on the metro's PA and the start-up sound (although they'll be somewhat muted) at a safe volume. The vents let in some sounds but I find it practical and safer as it makes you aware of your...

Val, All the discussion has centered around the sound of the M-100; will there be any changes in terms of comfort/design/style vs. the LP's? Or are we talking about the same shell but different drivers? Thanks!

Hey guys, here's my review of the m-80 from a consumer standpoint. I'm not an expert on sound description but hopefully this review could be helpful for someone like me (not an audiophile, but enjoys good sound quality). (TL;DR: They sound great and the build quality is as excellent as everyone...
