Thanks for your lack of comments on the inconsistencies/ incongruence of your posts. I think that just like the previous member on the JH13`thread you asked for his comments on his gear -- and I'm pretty sure he didn't reply to you via PM (he certainly didn't do so publicly)-- I'm afraid you won't be getting any PM's from me.

Why? Because you are indeed Uniqu3

This is my last response to you - on this thread.

They aren't bad, just people here that are voting Shure off can't appreciate the mid forwardness, and warmer signature compared to say other IEMs. Most of these people vote because they say "the cable sucks", which is true. But everyone here is just voting for the same thing. That's why i think that all the brands should've started at 0 points and only earn points and not lose points. I personally know the V-Moda and Skullcandy are inferior to Shure, but they haven't really been eliminated yet because this is headfi and barely anyone here cares about them, so they are right now ABOVE Shure...which doesn't make any sense at all.

LOL. It's just a game and we all have different opinions. Don't take it too seriously like Music 4321.

Nono, i just want to makre sure everyone knows this is like a "game" and not take this is "advice" for buying. Like that person above is panicking about the Se530. When it's not bad, and people are voting our Shure because they don't like the sound signature, or find the low models not that impressive.

Oh I see. I voted to keep Shure alive primarily because they didn't deserve to go plus I love their MICS. When you think about it this game is a bit weird, LOL. What's so bad about the Shure SE530 sound signature? How is it?

There's nothing bad about it, just the low models of the Shure tend to have a warm sound signature, mid forwardness, and a slightly recessed low end. The low end is what gets voted off, cause people expect Earsonics Sm2 or W3 low ends at that price...

Ok I see. Thanks for clarifying! Lets team up and keep Shure alive!

1) My first IEM/canalphones were Panasonics, they broke DAYS after the 30 day warranty out of nowhere and honestly didn't sound so much better than my stock buds at the time

2) Love these UM3X

neutral yet fun when it needs to be and not fatiguing at all. Great overall sound signature! I just wish I didn't have the vibration issue in my left earpiece. I might need to RMA them. Oh and awesome customer service which deserves +5 in my books

This game doesnt mean that a brand is voted out, its automatically bad. It in fact goes to show how popular that brand is here in HEAD-FI, whether positively or negatively. Also, you have to take into consideration why that brand got kick out. What were the reasons for all the "hurt" they got.

Personally i voted -1 for the shures because i didn't like their LOW-END IEMS, but i liked their SE530. so, better take note of the reasons too... (although the SE115 uses a dynamic driver now, which means a totally different sound signature)

Nono, i just want to makre sure everyone knows this is like a "game" and not take this is "advice" for buying. Like that person above is panicking about the Se530. When it's not bad, and people are voting our Shure because they don't like the sound signature, or find the low models not that impressive
