"Nothing stands out on the IE800."
 
...wut? Has he even heard the IE800?
 
 
Sound quality: Overall, this is a very safe sounding earphone. Nothing and I mean nothing stands out in the sound. Is that bad? Not necessarily. If you wanted a very well rounded and ultimately very secure sounding set of earphones, than these are for you. Besides being well-rounded, it's also bright and very clear. I would even argue that it's slightly clearer than the SE846's. But again, no range (low-mid-high) is particularly strong.  

 
 
Sound quality: I've touched on this before. The mid and low ranges are exceptional. The husky and very visceral sounding mid-range gives new life to vocals and string instruments while the low-range can deliver some surprisingly powerful bass and beats. It just barely lags behind the Sennheiser in clarity, but clarity is something you enjoy through acquired taste. Some feel like intense clarity becomes fatiguing after prolonged use. So the Shure may actually have the upper hand here.

This "review" is just a POS... Even as someone who doesn't like the IE800 at all finds their comments to it bordered on offensive....

I know we have nothing else to chew on concerning the 846 right now, but let's not give this more attention than it derserves. It is like reading a MC Donalds add and saying that the health claims are not entirely true.

As for the review - I don't own the IE800, but to a man, each review I've read here talks about the accentuated bass. Nothing stands out? Interesting.
