Hi,
Im an ATH-M50 lover, but I need the earphones for a travel uses and I will care less for sound quality and I'll prefer durability, comfortable, looks, and seal.
Im coming from vsonic gr06 (for 1.5 yrs now) and I want to buy a new pair of earphones.
 
which one would you take? I love the m50 so much but I don't know if the IM70 will be comfortable for portable and traveling uses as the se215 will be... :frowning2:
 
Please help I need to decide until tomorrow :frowning2:
 
Thanks!
 
 
BTW - I decided that the se215 = 1, and the at = 2, I went to random.org and number 1 came 3 times in a row... it is saying something, isn't it?

SE215 has better isolation and comfort, i'll say that much.
 
I haven't heard either but from what I gather of measurements, can't say one is better than the other. The IM70 is just getting more attention cause it's the new kid on the block.

You have your answer - SE215 (I own/owned the 215s, 315s, and 425s)

Well, if you don't really care about sound quality, then go for the Shures. The IM70 is bulkier than the SE215 but they fit me pretty well. I like the connectors on the IM70 tho, better than the MMCX ones on the SE215. They click into place, don't swivel so there is absolutely no sound-cutting.. .

Overall,
Build: IM70
Comfort: SE215
Isolation: SE215
Sound: IM70
