how are they at the gym?
You know...I'm glad that I'm a broke college student, otherwise you guys would make me go bankrupt. I love my se215s but your impressions of the gr-07 are making me doubt myself. are they really that much of an improvement?
I own a pair of SE215 as well as the GR07 and agree with Ericp10 the GR07 is significantly better. Since I got them I have trouble listening to any of my other IEM's. The biggest difference is the lack of veil I get with the GR07 while still having good bass presence. The Se215 does have more bass but it is not as controlled or detailed. The treble of the GR07 just kills the SE215 in extension and detail and the mids are also more detailed.
Welcome to head-fi.
First off, the se215's have dynamic drivers, not balanced armatures. Therefore, they are pretty good for bass. The bass certainly sounds good, but I must admit that my TF10's have a fuller sounding bass though (multi BA iem). I bought my pair in early July and have not experienced any of the cable or driver issues. I have the black version and all is well as of now with them receiving almost daily use. If you do have issues though, shure has excellent customer support and they will send you a new unit most likely if you have the connector issues.
