That being said, I guess I'm not hardcore enough - because like Qusp I love the Westone 3 bass. I think it is superior to the Shure bass in every way. It goes lower, is better controlled, and hits harder than the SE530. I can see why some people might think it is a bit overwhelming though. It really does add an underlying warmth to every single song you listen to. I just happen to like the warmth it adds.
Shure needs to to put the same dedicated low range driver that the Westone uses in the SE630.

shure has already put dedicated low drivers in the se530, if you actually owned the shures you would know this, and for this reason i dont even see how you have owned the shures at all??
it seems you havnt looked into the shure's workings at all have you? shure actually does use a dedicated driver for the lows, in fact it uses 2 and they are both dedicated to bass and bass alone, i dont think you have actually owned the shure's because everybody that has owned them happens to know this fact. even those that dont own them happen to know that.
you talk about the westone's bass like its better in so many ways but so far everybody has said its simply more than the shures, now what im saying is not so long ago everybody was bshing the shures for having too much bass quantity, and because of this the triple fi 10 was better, but now the westone has came along and everybody is saying its got more bass and emphasises the mid bass even more, yet everybody is saying its the best.
im slowly losing faith in people's comments here on head fi because they always just favour the new set of phones on the block, there hasnt been any true A/B comparisons yet that point out the flaws of the westone's properly.
another bad point of the shures was the apparently treble roll off and the fact the bass was too much for the treble to shine, but again the westone apparently boosts the mid bass even more, wouldnt this make them even more bloated and muddy??
