The bass is just incredible. I recently got a pair of Sony MDR Z1R and still, at least thus far, greatly prefer the sound of the SE846

New Head-Fier
Hello everyone. i'm very interested se846 at last time. I'm heard them at local store and it's fu...n amazing. I've got se425, but it's sooooooo different feelings with 846 
But... It's not newest model. Are them worth it in 2019? Or something newer around 1000$ will be better? Thanks.

Well if you enjoy the Shure midrange with additional great bass response and better highs then the se846 are an excellent choice. But. Are they worth the asking price? Probably not. I paid for mine recently around 800euros and experiencing them I believe that considering the competition these should be priced at least 30% less. Still it is a beautiful iem to have. High quality, robust sounding all arounder.

Do you have a travel case recommendation for me where the SE846 easily fits into with enough space? Preferrable some kind of padded.
I like Peli cases, the 1010 micro however looks very small. Any ideas?

Yes nice, something like this i was looking for...
Just you have always to disconnect the cables when i get it right.

You can. I did have another pluck foam that ran across the bottom with a 90 degree angle to put the iems in above the cable without removing them. But I wanted to add more stuff so I made this one to fit everything
or you can get the bigger pelican case like the 1040 with pluck foam and it will work just fine. It’s a little bigger though and too big for me

A few years back when I got mine they came with this case...
... great for all the extras.

I wish I could get my hands on one that isnt expensive. Might be too big for me. But that foam piece is what I would like. I think that’s the pelican 1060

This was included in a previous version of the SE846, right?
The current version comes only with the left black inner case.

Indeed, I got that case with my 846 purchased late 2016.
Correct. Looks like they saved some cost. Too bad. It made for a great kit.

The Shure SE846 is still the best overall head/earphone I’ve heard or owned. I just ordered the KSE1200 so I’m excited to compare them to the king.

Anybody use the SE846 with the Ibasso DX220? I have a DX220 coming tomorrow and agree the SE846 is very good and hold up well with newer offerings.

I did the same thing a couple months ago. Don't regret it. The KSE are a clear step up in resolution. Keep the SE846 around for when I don't feel like being analytical and want that guilty pleasure bass again.
Hope you enjoy the upgrade as I did
