I've used earphones and IEMs for as long as I can remember (ety er6, se530, etc) and just recently decided that I need a pair of headphones for pc gaming and listening to music while I'm at my desk. I've been around a few different shops to try out headphones, but most stores only sell low-mid...

I'm looking for recommendations for a pair of headphones in the $150-250 (canadian) price range. I'd like to pick up a pair primarily for playing FPS games (mostly Overwatch), but from time to time I'd also like to listen to music on them (thrash metal, classic rock)   I've heard that the...

is there anyone on this board that has a 530 with the newer cable type that is having problems with it? Ive been searching the forum endlessly for someone saying the new cables have problems but havent been able to find anything yet, although it could just be my bad searching skills

well i wouldnt say i never had issues with shure cables, because ive never owned a pair of shures before, Ive just never had any cable issues with my etys or my jays is what i meant I heard that shure changed the insulation on the 530 cables a while back, are these new cables any better than...

ah JR are in america, gunna be a pain getting it shipped to me + import etc etc btw do you know if the newer 530s have better cables than the one that most people are complaining about?

300? where from? I just figured if they discontinue the 530 and I need a replacement, they wouldnt really have anything to replace it with apart from 535 if they dont make the 530 anymore

are these going to replace the 535s, meaning they will discontinue the 530s? if I purchase a pair of 530s now and the cable breaks, I throw it in for an RMA and get a replacement, will I be given 535 in return?

wow i never even thought of that lol as a side note do you know if the Shure PTH will work with a phone? pick up/end calls etc

So I'm in the mood to replace my d jays for some triple driver phones and been looking at the se530s but I heard the 535 are coming at some point later this year would it be worth waiting for the 535 or just buy the 530 now? I don't mind waiting until like the summer for new phones but I'm...
