I have one of these music phone cables for my SE535. I'm generally very happy with it - I was rather disappointed with the stock cable since it made it relatively difficult to quickly insert the IEM into my ear due to the reinforcement right at the drivers. The music phone cable relieves that...

Performance wise, the IEM you chose, in what characteristic what does it shine over the others in?   I apologize if I missed some good IEMs, I'm only going by what's on the top of my head.

  this seemed like a better place than the buy/sell forum but if you think it should go there let me know     First...do I have a problem...maybe   is that problem named the head-fi buy/sell forum...perhaps am I addicted to getting packages in the mail every week or so containing...

I have the shure535 for a few days now and maybe it's me but the soundstage for Pop and rock doesn't seem as impressive as Jazz/classical stuff. I've heard that the westone have a better soundstage for pop/rock. I'm wondering if this is true? I don't want a lot of bass as I'm not a bass head...

Hey everyone, sorry if i posted this in the wrong section. Someone is offering me $160 + MTPC for my Shure SE535. My Shure are fairly new and I'm guessing his are too, since he said it's still coiled up. Is it worth the trade?    Thanks!

Hello all, I have only posted a couple of times on here after first coming across the site when I was looking to upgrade from my Denon AH-C551 earphones which replaced my stock Apple buds.   After looking at a multitude of reviews I eventually went for a set of Superfi 5 Pros, and as the...

Just wondering, do most of you consider the SE535 a bit too bright/sibilant--to the point of being fatiguing? I'm finding it hard to adjust to it, especially when compared to the better headphones I have.

I'm an avid music listener and I'm interested in upgrading my 535's. The miracle's seem like they're a solid choice, but I'm curious as to what you guys think in regards to how much of an improvement I'll actually hear. I understand that the Miracles don't have a ton of reviews out so I can only...

Hey guys, so I'm thinking about replacing my earbuds but I'm not so sure which I should get. I'm deciding between the Shure SE series (probably se425 or se535) and Sennheiser ie8. My friend says that I should get the ie8s because of its base-heavy tendencies (I mostly listen to soundtracks and...

Several of us, way out west, decided to take advantage or the offer UE made to us at our big meet (2/19/11). So, it has been deemed necessary to create a thread to discuss our new UE Customs instead of cluttering up the Meet Impressions thread with our "It's like Christmas" banter. So here it...

Hi everyone,   I wanted your take on what IEM was the most comfortable you've had and the worst one.   Basically, I believe that I've had a bad experience with my UE SuperFi 4 IEM.  I tried all the silicone tips and the foam tips and ended up using the foam ones.   What I found is...

Hello,   I just received the Shure 535's today.  It sounds great in terms of clarity, and midrange voice comes thru very easily.  I'm quite dissappointed in the warmth, and the bass response though.  I've tried all the sleeves, and found the ones that fits best, but still it doesn't sound to...

Hi there, I'm looking to buy my first ever expensive earphones and I'm really lost as to what to go for, the dre beats immediately got my attention but I don't like alot of the reviews, apparently the bass is brilliant but the sound and clarity is really poor, I have a budget of about £200 but...

So far these have been the ideal IEM for me. I am seeking an upgrade, but only because I want to upgrade, not because I want a different signature, etc. So, please recommend a set of IEMs that are similar, but better. Tough task, I know.

I own a good number of high end universals and customs and when I bought the Shure SE535s a few months back, I expected them to be outstanding from the reviews. However, since then I have realised that they have:   1) Absolutely no sub-bass to speak of 2) Rolled off and recessed highs 3)...

I am in no way endorsing this company.  They say there authorized dealers for everything they sell so i suppose its safe.  Ran across this coupon for 40% off most stuff on their site. expires i think on the 31st.  sorry denon is excluded.  USE THE TECHBARGAINS LINK DIRECTLY AND SCROLL TO BOTTOM...

I gonna buy SE535 and i found a great deal of gimmedigi offering at USD 399, is gimmedigi reliable? anyone bought from them before?         http://www.gimmedigi.com/catalog/shure-sound-isolating-earphones-se535-p-2221.html        ...

I recently purchased a set of Shure SE535s and have noticed that some sounds are quite ear-piercing at semi-loud volumes. The most notable is the "s" sound in metal/rock songs (it sounds fine in softer songs), which is extremely loud and sharp and bothers me greatly. I've read reviews about the...

This thread was inspired by a quote from the SE215 thread: http://www.head-fi.org/forum/thread/542003/new-shure-se215-first-impressions.   First and foremost, I'd like to share my thoughts and experience, and hopefully other Head-Fi'ers can post any critiques and their experiences. Note, my...

I just got the SE425s as a Christmas present (from myself) and I do believe I've found the perfect set for my tastes. Even without burn-in (I'm doing that now as I type), the SE425s sound amazingly clear with an enveloping, punchy bass response. I don't get why it's called a neutral 'phone, with...

I have been the typical more casual listener, having purchased several IEMs in the sub $100 range looking for the most bang for the buck and achieving a good sound. Some of these have included the V-Moda Vibe (original) and warranty replacements (originals were much better than the replacements)...

Hi everybody, i'm in search of a new pair of IEMs. I'm plugging it into my ipod touch/ ibasso D10, and maybe my computer. I listen to mainstream music, pop, electronic, etc. Are there any iems similar to the Ultrasone Hfi 580 ? The HFI 580 has very forward mids, but still retains a nice bass. My...

Hi, I have been checking to buy one of these 3 for quite some time now, all three are by american manufacturers as far as I know. At one point street prices for the klipsch and the ety seem to have been 170 dollars more or less and the shure for 350 dollar but i cant find them for that price at...

Hi its been awhile since I visited this site, but the time has come to replace my Shure SE110. They are starting to sound muffle in one side...   Any ways I'll be using my Nokia N900 to run the headphones for now. I do have an archos 70, but my niece pretty much claimed it for her self.. So...

Hi, Just curious as to whether anyone else has had a similar problem. Here is the story, I will keep it short.   I have had se535 for a couple of months now, after a couple of weeks and very rarely I noticed some distortion. Initially I thought it was my player.  The distortion slowly...
