Btw, how is it possible that the Shure E500 is so light? Mine is so lightweight I might have think that there's nothing in that shell...lol

Ebay, I bought one from earphonesolutions but the shipping cost wayyy too much for something so light.

I got mine from ebay, brand new and seal for 270 bucks including shipping to the UK. (no custom either) Try and beat that.

verticalforce - Shure E500PTH

I made a mistake of washing (read: drowning) my shure black foamies in freezing cold water and now it won't compressed anymore. It expands way too quickly (faster than I can say poop) and the rubber has somewhat becomes well...too elastic and won't fit in my ears. I stored them with drying agent...

All three are the exact same thing except you get a couple new accessory and the black foamies with SE530 and SE530PTH. The one that has PTH (e500pth and se530 pth) well... has the PTH module, a gadget-like mic that lets you hear outside surrounding while you are wearing the IEM. You are...

If money wasn't an issue, I would just ask my favourite singer to do a private performance for me. That's what russian billionaires do anyway....

I hate E500's cable, it's way too thick for its own good and just look and feel bulky to use. Anyone know where can I get extension cable that is durable and lighter?

I can dance like the itunes advert and the buds will still sit in place - awesome, it's like this bud is custom made for my ears... The bass is plenty IMO, very muddy with no tactile feeling. Can I ask something? For straight jack connector, are you supposed to twist them before you remove...

Get westone 3 or e500 and save the headache of upgrading. Or just get UE 10 PRO if you don;t mind custom. ER4P/S works too if you don't mind clinically accurate sounds.

Zacorias, the opposite applies to me. This is the only earbud that I had ever tried that actually fit in my ear. I guess it's weird like that. If you have a perfect fit, then only can you appreciate the quality of this bud. (compare to other stock buds) It's a bit like IEM, really.

And to think that Apple charged this ibuds 19 quids (38 dollars) if you buy it seperately... *shakes head* I would probably buy one just because it fits so well in my ear.

Mainstream pop sounds quite good IMO, mid-range is not bad at all. Who the **** listened to classical using ibud... :P this stuff is for your mainstream, sub par recording kind of sound.

My brain must have gone wonky or something since it's nearing the exam, but i bought a shuffle, which is coincidentally my first ipod and I thought that the new earbud is pretty darn good. This is coming from a Shure E500 owner as well. It's no match for the E500, obviously, but for casual...

Bought a new green shuffle today and it hisses like hell with my Shure E500. No hiss with Apple stock earbud. Problem solved with the use of volume attenuator, but it adds bulk to the cable.
