Aynone tried the sine and shure se 846? Im considering selling my shures and get the sine.I have come to the conclusion that i dont like in ears cause of diss comfort.The sine looks like an good portable headphone for walking around.How is the isolation? it dont have to be super,want to to hear cars and stuff around me,but of course not destroying the the music completly.
I agree with whoever said Sine is not comfortable to wear for a long time. The discomfort is proportional to the diameter of the head. Also, noise isolation wise, Sine comes nowhere near an IEM. If that's where you are coming from, you will notice a big difference. That said, I have walked around with Sine on noisy roads, and the noise isolation depends on the music being played. High frequency noise is suppressed more than the low frequency ones. So if your music includes many bass notes, they will be more drowned in the background noise than high frequency cymbals for instance. Overall, the sound will lose some of its weight and impact and could sound thin due to interference from low frequency noise.
May I add, that replacing the earpads with (third party) around ear versions may improve the noise isolation. Such options were discussed in great lengths in this thread a while ago.
