You probably missed my first post about buying where I quoted a price, hence the confusion?! 
And in the budget to $ 80, I doubt that the 215 is what is more or less strong competitors with such promptness, price-quality, etc.

As I said the quality is certainly way better what the competition offers,even the comfort and isolation.

But some people like me don't prefer such heavy bass response.

Hey guys! Just got a set of these in black, still burning in, just wanted to point out that the original cable now has a rubber spacer at the bottom of the 3.5 jack so it can fit devices with cases. I was quite worried about this when I bought mine because all the photos showed no spacer and i was sure it would not fit.... So i also bought a UE900 cable as well only to find out that the original cable fits perfectly even with a rubber case over my iPhone 5s. Anyway thought I'd share the knowledge

Hey guys! What else kind of cable can you suggest aside from "fiio cable"?

 

[Kosmonavt]

Westone cables sound great with the SE215!

I could see calling the Shure 215s Bass Heavy if you were coming from ba's; like the etymotic hf5s. At best, classifying them as warm isn't a stretch of the imagination. They are in my opinion a solid forward sounding midrange iem that also has a relatively flat bass curve only lacking sub bass. Even then it is a gentle rolloff to 20Hz.
 
Each to thier own, you either like them or not. I'm not even suggesting your wrong but I don't think it fair to leave a bass heavier moniker and disappoint some unwitting basshead.

When an earphone has more bass than even monster turbine pro coppers then its termed as bass heavy only.

Link for this cable?

I'm having good results with the Westone ADV mic cable, but I had to trim some rubber from the connectors to make it fit.

My other cable arrived, cloth covered with a mic and switch for android/apple. Works fine, at least as good as the stock.



[COLOR=000000]someone[/COLOR] asked in another Shure thread if this was a good one. Very flexible and no microphonics. Not bad for 13 US dollars.
Vlad I tried the Shure yellow tips, they are ok, I think the Etymotic foams are better.

Using for two weeks now with my android. The single button to pause, start and double tap to go forward works really well; very little lag unlike my previous phone so I couldn't be sure if its this controller or the new phone. It works. I kind of wish it had a cinch slider but it's so flexible and has a cloth cover.

Hey guys I have a question,
My setup is in my sig.
I'm having a problem with the SE215,
The bass seems to be lacking.
I'm using the foam stock tips.
The mids and highs seem to be clear,
It's just that the bass is lacking.
Any help or suggestions?

For a pair of warm earphones, the SE215s is inherently not as bassy as its counterparts. You can try using the bigger foam tips to achieve a tighter seal, but aside from that, there really isn't much you can do to increase bass.

This is not good, I'm already using the large stock foam tips.
