I searched around the forum and internet, and couldn't find the information I needed, so I thought I had to ask here. I own Shure SE210 for about 3 years, but the cable is ripped, so I need a new set. Right now I'm looking at the new SE215 and SE315.   My question is that should I get...

My Shure SE210 died, need a pair of new IEMs as soon as possible.   I'm looking at SE215 and SE315 because they are the easiest that I can get my hands on.   My primary use is for on-stage monitoring through AVIOM.   I know that SE215 has dynamic drivers and SE315 has BA drivers, I'm...

Hello, long time lurker, first time poster.   I'm looking for a better replacement for my current flimsy Sleek Audio SA6, but this time I don't want to break the bank. I really like their sound signature (which is quite balanced yet musical), but would prefer something with a bit stronger...

I searched the forums, including the Shure SE215 thread, but could not find an adequate comparison of the Shure SE215 and the Shure SE315. All I found is that the dynamic driver in the SE215 is more "fun" than the armature driver in the SE315. Can anyone provide me with more information? Is the...

My shure se210 cable cracked after 4-5 month of use so Im worried if the same thing will happen to my new sennheiser IE8. Is there a way to prevent this? Thanks.

I've always enjoyed my sound. But I have never really looked into it. I currently own a pair of Shure SE210's, and am looking into some new, higher quality ones. Before I make a decision, I want to do my research, and find what I'm getting myself into.    What are in IEM's? What is best in...

Hello there. First post here cause I'm kind of stuck with my search.   A few months ago I bought Panasonic RP-JHE900-K as a special deal for about $80 from J&R Electronics. Now, only about 6 months later, the right side has cutting-offs caused by the cable. I bought them also because they...

I started with the e3c then got SE210, have loves the 210 for about 2 years.   I want an IEM with a negative profile so i can sleep more comfortably with them. The natural next purchase seems to be the SE315, but i would like to avoid the 200 mark. I am skeptical of the 215's because of the...

I'll just get this out of the way first: I'm by no means an audiophile, and I don't have the money to become one. So all I'm looking for is something that will offer really "nice" sound (by all of your standards), room to be upgraded (so OpA driven would be nice) and ability to drive IEMs...

Hello everbody,   I'm looking for new In-Ears for about 200 $.     I listen to:   - Rock: Hard, Classic, AOR   - Metal: Heavy, Power, Speed, Melodic, Symphonic, Thrash, Death, Black     I found following In-Ears, which would fit:   - Grado iGi - Ultimate Ears 700 -...

greetings elitists of the audio world. bear with my ... lack of knowledge. I'm here to indulge myself in good sound quality for once and head-fi is just the community   I've always appreciated the concept of high quality headphones. Was very happy with my Siberia despite them looking quite...

Hi !   I recently joined Head-Fi and love the community here. I made the big leap and purchased my first set of audiophile IEMs and I gotta say... it's like rediscovering my music all over again.   However, my girlfriend doesn't seem to share in my enthusiasm. She doesn't seem to...

Hi,    I'm still pretty much a noob when it comes to headphones, the best pair I've have so far is a pair of shure se210 earbuds. I want to buy some headphones, that cover the ears so they can double as earmuffs during the winter. I really like the monster beats (not the solos) I like the...

Hello everyone,   I´m new here, so hello to all from an spaniard.   I have the SE210 IEM which I bought about 1.5+ years ago. The rubber has started to wear out, and I see this is a common problem in this model. On the right side, it´s completely torn off, and on the left side it´s...

Title says it all. Post 1 or more worst IEM you've ever heard, and put them in order like #1 is the worst and #2 second worst .....

I've been struggling on what I want, EXTREMELY clear tremble/highs and such and good bass with the SE425, or HEADSHAKING bass with the 9MM/ MTP! Could I just use my Fiio E5 and up the bass up on the SE 425, would the bass be distorted and muddy? I mainly listen to hiphop, rap, rnb...

Heck, I can't listen to my iPhone in my car over BT anymore either.  I find I'm ripping CDs again now, LOL!   Anyway, I was working out with some old Shure Se210s.  Wow, are those things muddy - not to mention uncomfortable.   I was THIS close to buying SM3s when I realized that I may...

I've recently bought a pair of Shure SE535s, after previously having a pair of SE210s, which cable torn two years and a month from purchase (what an odd coincidence!). Having not the greatest ear moulds in the world, I naturally needed to try a few sleeves. Thing is, you can't get them off...

Hey all!   I could really use some advice on buying some new IEM's. Two years back, I bought a set of Shure SE210. I was very happy with these until the cables broke after about one year. Since this is a common Shure problem, I knew it was a risk I took when buying them. Still, it was a big...

Hi all,   I'd like to try IEM's but I know almost nothing about them. I would use them mainly (or only ?) while travelling by train or plane, so one very strong instance is isolation from outside noise; together with sound quality of course. So, first of all: do you think I could get a...

Hello guys    I want to buy some good headphones for my iPhone 4 preferable without separate amp. Mostly i listen to Hip Hop and jazz. i would not call me a bass head.   At home i use B&W CM7 with some Rotel stuff, maybe that helps.   i don't need ultra highend stuff as i use them...

Howdy folks, fairly new newbie here; it was kindda overwhelming researching this stuff so I was wondering if someone could help crank out a few recommendations. Christmas is nearing, and I thought it's time to treat myself seeing as how my noise cancelling earbuds are getting old.   I'll be...

Hi. I've had my Shure SE210 for about 10 months now and I realized that I wanted more bass out of it. So I did some googling and found out that this magical headphone amplifier might help boost bass. So, I was thinking of either getting Fiio E5 to boost bass (if it actually works) or selling my...

  Hello everyone, my name is Detach.   I’ve been floating around the Head-Fi boards for about a year now.  I started here with headphones, because at the time it was the most affordable way for me to get the quality sound I wanted.  I did my research and eventually went with some Shure...

I was about to buy the Meelec M6 + M9 package deal for $56 shipped, but I just found a deal for the Shure SE210's 'refurbished' for $45 shipped.  ...
