Hrm, I wonder if this observation along with dweaver's impressions of the iPhone cable suggest that the first batch of SE215's had a lacking cable?

 
hmmm, interesting theory but I can`t afford to buy another pair to find out LOL. The wife is going to kill me when she finds out I bought the Sonocore COA-805 and the Vsonic GR07 as it is. The only good news is a whole bunch of people are going to get some serious deals when I have a sale of IEM`s after I decide which ones I want to keep.
 
BTW AngryBaconGod, have you noticed any changes in your GR07`s mdirange since your last post in the SE215 GR-7 thread I started?

To be honest, I recently bought Audio Technica CK10's and I love them so much that they have been getting most of my ear time. The GR07's aren't anywhere close to broken in and I don't really want to listen too critically before that's done. All I can really say about the GR07 right now is that it is thoroughly enjoyable and definitely my "go-to" 'phone when I'm in the mood for something a little smoother.

Interesting I love smooth but detailed, I may be in for a treat . The SE215 does smooth well but lacks the detail I like by just enough to leave me wanting more.

Btw for those interested I own much higher detailed IEM's and headphones which is why I miss that area. But if your just starting your head-fi journey and don't own higher end stuff the SE215 is major step up from the cheapy buds that come with most players and most of the IEM's under a $100, so don't let a jaded head-fi'er like me stop you from enjoying these very nice IEM's.

Long time lurker here I put my ETY HF5s on the shelf a while back and I've been using ADDIEMs but I just got the itch for something new... Thanks for all the info in this thread

Quick question, I love my 215 but of course looking at others. I love the sound and looking for similar sound but more clarity. Looking about spending 160 or so. Looking at these two. GR07 and the Tf10. Please help me out. Thanks

 

[dweaver]

The TF10 has a recessed midrange and is not nearly as comfortable. I have a pair of GR07 coming in so might be able to shed some light on them soon. From what I have read though they should be more detailed but will a have a more neutral bass and midrange. I love the forward sound of the SE215 but also have other headphones like my full-size D7000 that have a V shaped sound I love as well. So long as the kids are clear and detailed I think I can live with them not being forward but will have to wait and see.

I'm having a bit of an issue. How far should I be putting these 215s into my ear canal? The problem here is comfort. They don't feel super great in there.

With me I don't have to insert them very far to get a great seal. At first I was pretty much craming these into my ears since the tips felt like they weren't going in very deep. But by doing this I was causing myself some discomfort.
 
So just recently I noticed that if I put them in nice and gently(not trying to put them in as far as possible) I get the same seal and same sound, but without the discomfort issue. So try that.

New member here, I currently own a pair of CX-21 and was wondering if these are worth upgrading to? Sound-wise are these are a huge step up, or should I save up a few more bucks and move to the =~ $150 range.
 
Thanks.

 

[dweaver]

After a quick read of Joker's thread I suspect these would sound nothing like your CX-21 as these are very mid centric with good volume bass but the treble is a bit recessed especially out of the gate. The SE215 will have a better sound stage though and if you are looking for more bass or a more forward midrange you might quite like the SE215.
 
If on the other hand you want a more neutral sound with more detail and a better sound stage you might want to spend the extra $50 and go Vsonic GR07.

Hi guys, im just a newbie so im planning to buy SE215 and sansa clip+ white color. WIll they do great synergy? 

 

[dweaver]

The clip and Fuz ehave pretty clean sound which would be good with the SE215. I think you should be fine. I have read in the thread that the cable of the clear model is slightly different though so you may want to search in the thread for those posts.

 

[Inks]

I think black clip+ with black SE215s have better synergy.

Hi,
 
I have the Senheisser CX200. And i was wondering how the SE215's are compared to the CX200.
Can someone give a impression? Is it worth spending?
 
Thanks,
