How do these compare to skullcandy 50/50, i am trying to choose between those and the m2. Which would sound better and are the m2 comfortable for using for long time?

No comparison with skull candys, of any sort. These blow them out the water, then wipe the floor with them!

Thats a little interesting to hear, i've been reading up on the m2 for a few days then i used the 50/50 at my friends and i thought they sounded fantastic. What about comfort, i have about a 1 hour ride to work everyday, do they sit well in the ears and feel nice?

Just picked these up and have used them on my busy commute a couple of days...
   Sound is good, comfort and isolation are so-so. The housings are rather long and though comfortable they pop out of my ears a bit with the stock silicons. They tend to hang out of the ears as well. So far I am a bit disappointed actually but hopefully I will get used to them! I haven't tried them with complys yet either but that helped a lot with my DDMs so I may give it a try!

reading the feedback here it seems the opinion on the bass is a little mixed, would these be helped if used with the e5?

They may look goofy doing this but I found they worked rather well when I looped them over ear, it helped reduce microphonics a bit and helped them to stay in my ears very well. This is a different IEM but try wearing them like this:

anyone have compared it to ATH-CKM55?

Just want to update any people here who purchased the M2 during the preorder, we have mailed out the missing ear gliders to all buyers now

 

[zorkxy]

Awesome! I'm hoping to get these IEMs in a few days!

 

[RatterTony]

I made my purchase about 11 days back, they arrived to me yesterday, 5 hours of use and i can already say that i am quite pleased with what i am hearing. I dropped the idea of using them over the ears with the gliders provided as i didn't like the feeling.
I will try and give some more feedback on Tuesday.

Short update, bass is really good, i found that burning in did have a effect on the sound mainly in the bass department. Strain reliefs keep coming off not sure if its due to bad design or because i sweat a lot. They sit well in my ear and remain comfortable over long periods which is something i really hoped for as i tend to use them a lot during the day at work.  If i had to point out one design fault on these earphones it would be the L shaped plug, i would much rather have had a 90 degree plug. now back to work.....

 

[dweaver]

The strain reliefs are a bit of a bad design as several people (myself included) have had the same issue. I suggest a small drop of glue to help hold them in place.

I've had the M2's for bout a week now and I must say they sound really great for it's price point. Burning in does have noticeable effects, most notably the bass and a bit on the clarity.
 
Also I find that wearing them over the ear results in a better fit for me, giving a better seal and of course better SQ.
 
On a side note, anybody tried the M2's with complys? What's the effect on the SQ?

 

[cardozo]

Muffled sound with a lot of fat bass. For me, this phone works best with the silicone tips and a shallow insert.
 
With my J3, this phone is awesome.
 
Cheers,
