I already have CX95, EX500lp, Custom 1,2 and various other mid level buds and SE110 left me cold - no freezing but for some reason i get the feeling i will like the SE115!
Anyway, I personally am unable to help, but I did find this comparison of the SE115 to the SE110:

I would say, a improvement over the SE110. Better lows and Mids. Highs stay around the Same. They Provide a nice warm Sound Signature, Detailed but not a whole ton, highs are clear (not as clear as higher end earphones, or Etymotics and Westones), mids are smooth (shure's Signature Frequency =), Lows are improved over teh Se110, Warm and thumpy, May not be the most powerful though. Would recommend as Entry level earphone along with Phonak Audeo PFE, and Westone Um1.!

I think I'll have to agree with Koven. Not to come off as a snob or anything but I find it very difficult to recommend anything from Shure lower than the SE310.
Not sure what your budget is but am pretty sure there are better options available. The Ne-7m comes to mind.
I would say might as well buy something that is $200 than four $50 things. The CX95 won't even compete with the good stuff. Sorry, but CX95, EX500, Custom 1 and 2 are not mid level. They are higher end consumer level stuff. Head-fi mid level is Phonak/Turbine/CK9/X5/SE310/Super.fi 5 Pro etc, etc. Not to sound like a snob, of course!

That's actually not true, because they're Shure's. You can trust the build quality on them...well with slight exceptions with cables, but everything else is bang on. I find the Se115 to be quite good actually, a big improvement over the se110. Yes i agree, i would prefer a pair of Phonak Audeo PFE's over the Se115 if i were to buy it. But if you prefer a warmer sound signature and better lows, go for the Se115.
The Ne-7m are no doubt very good earphones, but i find the sound of the Shure Se115 to be more accurate, detailed, and the design of the earphone to be better. They also seem to have a better isolation compared to the nuforce as well.
