Performance Above Cost, Buy Them!
I purchased these IEM's and after reading lots of reviews I wanted to state the following: all earbuds with dynamic drivers need some break in time, please believe this. If you think that they will sound the same right out of the box, as opposed to after you listen to them for many hours, you are wrong in that assumption. I own several pairs and purchased these for their boost in bass response over the less expensive Shure model. I listened to them out of the box and then after every ten hours of break in. You can use white noise CD's or the like but here's what has worked for me breaking in 4 to 5 pairs in the past 6 months. Get yourself an adapter plug and plug your IEM's into your receiver or your boombox or your radio. Put them on and raise the sound level to where they are comfortable then take them off and crank it up to where you can hear them while you're holding them in your hand. Play talk radio for 10 hours, rock music for 10 hours, classical music for 10 hours and after every 10 hour session listen to the IEM's. The difference with the SE215's after 30 hours was striking, no sibilance, the midrange and the lows were so much clearer and deeper. After another 30 hours I can honestly say that for 100 bucks these buds are definitely worth it. Now having said that, I also have to state that a pair of Monster N-Lites that I paid 60 bucks for after 20 hours of break in sounded almost as good as the Shure SE215-K's I purchased. What's my point? There are a lot of really good earbuds in the 50 to 100 dollar range. the Shures are excellent and I use them at home for their superior bass and I use the N-Lites for the gym and running. I own and highly recommend the RHA-MA750's, the HiFiMan's for 99 bucks, the Klipsh Image S-4's and the Monster Turbos that I paid 100 bucks for. I am a bit of a fanatic when it comes to my music and just like speakers I find that headphones and IEM's all seem to have sonic signatures all their own. The SE215's are a superior product, with a 2 year warranty, replaceable cords and once broken in, sound quality above the purchase price. When I listen to my laptop through my Dragonfly DAC and the Shure SE215's I am one happy camper. Folks, I can be more technical and try to impress you with terms that make me sound like the audiophile I am but what's the point of that? These are for 100 dollars worth every cent.After break in I had to turn the volume down even lower and was amazed at how well these IEM's performed and gave that sense of being outside of my head. Audio is very subjective, what one person hears another may not, that's why I listen through differing pairs. That and the fact that I'm a bit maniacal about my music! When I am ready to spend more on IEM's the 315's or 415's will be the ones I buy from Shure and I must add, Amazon's service is beyond belief. I am extremely satisfied with my purchase and I reiterate, break them in for sonic bliss, a minimum of 40 hours before critical listening.Ver másVer menos

Finally I can listen to heavy metal at the gun range!
Well, just as I was about to give up on earphones or earbuds and stick with headphones, I decided to give these a try. I've always hated earphones/earbuds because they never seem to fit my ears right. When I saw these, it sounded like the foam used in the construction of the earbud made a much more formed fit. More like foam ear plugs for hearing protection.I attend loud concerts regularly, play drums, and shoot guns too), so I'm pretty familiar with hearing protection. Now that I've found these Shure earbuds, I will never go back to another line of earphones/headphones. These little isolating earphones are just what I needed. I can use them not only for listening to my iPod, but I can even use them for sound monitoring with the drums.The package comes with a nice array of accessories. Plenty of sizes of ear pieces, and a nice quality little soft pouch. Fitting them in and wrapping the cord over your ear is something I'll have to get used to. It took me a few minutes to figure it out, but then it fit great. The sound is good. A little bass-heavy, but I'd rather have too much bass than not enough (can always use the EQ bass reducer on the iPod). I think my Bose headphones are still better for hi-fi at home. With these Shure earphones, I ordered the white/clear/silver color rather than the black. In hindsight, I should have ordered the black. I thought the clear would blend-in with my clothing and skin and therefore look less noticeable. But because of the translucent cable and the fact that it's both silver and copper wire underneath, it actually draws more attention. Almost looks like jewelry. Face it: Because of the design of these, people are either going to think you're hard of hearing and wearing a hearing aid, or you're a rock star and wired for the big stadium show.A couple of words of caution: As another review said, these little babies seriously do isolate you. Now, maybe on a subway that's a good thing. You can get lost in your little world listening to music or an audio book on a commute. Or maybe in your dorm room studying or meditating with some nice ambient music on. But honestly these earphones would be absolutely dangerous to use while jogging or riding a bike. You'll hear nothing but the music. No care horns. No police chase. No rabid dogs chasing you. Sorry if I'm stating the obvious, but these earphones really are like wearing deafening hearing protection. Another related issue: If you're listening to soft or quiet music and you're moving around, you'll hear every foot step you take, every burp, every breath, every Dorito you eat, and all the jostling of your body. That's just the nature of the beast when you plug your ears totally up. Last thing to mention: Make sure to set the max volume limit on your iPod before you plug these earphones in. If you're not careful, you'll blast your eardrums more with these plugs than with over-the-ear vented headphones.Solid recommendation on these earphones. Just be careful where/how you wear them.

Incredible Headphones
Have you ever though “I need better headphones”? If yes, the Shure SE215 Sound Isolating Earphones are some of the best you can buy. These headphones will fit every need you have surrounding headphones. They are made with quality materials, have amazing sound quality, and fit extremely well. Also, the Shure SE215 headphones are considered to be relatively cheap when compared competitors.SOUNDThe sound quality of these headphones is extremely good. These headphones have a much brighter sound compared to competitors and preform well with any kind of music. Many headphones are not produced with range that the Shure headphones are produced with, which is why these headphones have a much better sound quality. These headphones also offer sound isolation. This is not the same as noise cancelling headphones as the do not emit any frequencies to counter act any noise surrounding you. However, these headphones fit extremely well and provide a high degree of sound isolation, the ability to block out noises from the surrounding environment. This sound isolation is better for sound quality because you only get the frequency of the sound and not the frequency used to cancel outside noise.FITThese headphones do not fit like normal ear buds; they wrap around your ear. This is not something you think will be better than traditional ear buds, but that is not the case. Because they wrap around your ear your headphones rarely come out of place. Also when being active, it provides extra support and a firmer hold. The Shure SE215’s also come with a wide rage or tips for the headphones so you can be sure they will comfortably fit in your ear.QUALITYUnlike most headphones these are made with high quality materials. The cord is made out of braided steal covered in a resistant yet foldable plastic. This means the cord will not rip, tear or break in any manor. The part that wraps around your ear is made from a very thick plastic which holds the shape you bend it to. This is beneficial because when they are wrapped around your ears you do not want them to move. The tips are also very high quality. They are made thicker than usual so they are more resistant to tears and fit much better in your ear.These headphones are great for everyone, but mostly specifically someone who is looking for an affordable upgrade. They have incredible sound quality and almost as high of materials quality. As an added bonus, Shure made the ear buds detachable so if one earbud breaks you only have to the part instead of brand new headphones. The purchase of these headphones comes free of buyer’s remorse and will blow you away!

Great if you're not already spoilt by high end headphones.
Let me start of by saying this is a great pair of IEMs for $100. These were my first pair of IEMs and I bought them because I didn't want to lug around some big headphones whenever I might needed to listen to some music or use normal ear buds(the non in-ear kind) because of the bad sound isolation. These ones solve both those problems extremely well. The build quality is solid, the wires are top notch and you get 3 sizes of Shure's in-house made comply foam tips and 3 sizes of normal rubber tips. You also get a nice nylon pouch with a hook thing to clip onto stuff, like holes in bags etc. Also a cleaning tool for earwax build-up. Putting them on the first time will be challenging but you will get the hang of it after a while.So this product is great if you're looking for something like that. However the reason its not 5 stars is probably because of a personal circumstance. I already own a pair of high-end headphones. Coming from those, the sound quality is almost the same but not as comfortable, probably because these are my first IEMs and I'm not used to shoving things into my ear. However there is a slight bit of micro-phonics(cable rubbing noise) that comes with every IEM in the world, you can't escape it, and the fact that the noise isolation is so good, if you're not listening to music, congratulations you get to experience the awkward feeling of being deaf for the first time in your life. That may or may not be a praise. I think I just prefer the comfort of headphones, but if you're used to IEMs, then this $100 baby is as good as $300 headphones, well almost, but pretty dam close. The headphones have better clarity and a more spacious sound stage. Great value for your money I might say.Also there was a problem where the audio jack was too thick and may cause fit problems if you had a narrow opening on your phone due to a case, this problem has been eliavated by a improved design. The thick wrapping around the pin now has been shortened, allowing you to get into smaller spaces on phone cases.So for the sound quality. The bass is loud and thumping, also depends on the eartip you use. Rubber tips gives more pronounced bass where as comply gives clearer mids. The highs and mids are decent, not that I can tell properly because I'm not a professional Audio connaisseur.Pros+ Great audio quality+ Great Build quality+ 3 Tip sizes of rubber AND Comply foam+ Pouch+ Improved Audio jackCons+ Not top of the line audio+ Will not be worth it if you have expensive headphonesTl;Dr Very good IEMs for $100, for this price range to be competitive to more expensive headphones is very impressive. Probably one of the best choices you can get in this price range. If you have spoilt yourself with expensive audio, then this isn't for you.

No helmet - sounds great up to 55 mph/88 kphHelmet - sounds great up to 75 mph/120 kphWhen going on long rides at high speeds I wear a helmet with ear plugs, this is why I purchased these ear buds. Wearing the Shure 215s in place of disposable ear plugs works out well(for me). They cut out roughly the same amount of wind from your ears as disposable foam earplugs while affording you the option of listening to music. For this use I would recommend buying a pair. There are a few things to consider though;No HelmetFor riders who do not wear helmets you can ride at 70 mph/112 kph with the earbuds staying firmly in place. I didn't try riding any faster because once they do pop out at those speeds it would be a total loss.On my first attempt I just pushed the earbuds into my ear with one hand and found that they started flopping around at 50 mph/ 80 kph. On subsequent rides I pulled on my ear lobe with one hand and pushed the device into my ear with the other. This seats the earbuds properly in your ear but...after an hour or so your ear will become sore. These come with 3 different sizes of ear attachments in foam and 3 in silicone. I started with the mid sized foam which is what is installed out of the package. I tried the small size next to alleviate the ear pain. This worked for just walking around but failed miserably when I rode a motorcycle. The wind noise was horrible, going 30 mph had as much wind noise as going 60 mph while wearing the mid size foam attachment. My head circumference is 24.25 inches/61.5 centimeters and the medium attachment is the proper size for me.Using the proper size attachment, wind noise isn't noticeable up to 55mph/88 kph. It will not become overwhelming if you keep your speed under 75 mph/ 120 kph. I can hear my single piston 650cc enduro just well enough to tell which gear I am in at low rpms although this takes some getting used to. No problem hearing my 1,000cc v-twin sport bike engine.HelmetI have had zero issues putting on or taking off helmets. The earbuds remain firmly in place and have never given a hint of coming out. Once my helmet was on the earbuds felt like they were in the same position as when the helmet was off. I wear a SHOEI GT Air for street and a Troy Lee for dirt, this was true for both. Wind noise was not an issue up to 75 mph/ 120 kph. I could still hear the music well into the triple digits although it was roughly a 60-40 wind to music ratio at those speeds. For all tests I kept the volume at safe levels. You could easily drown out the wind if you turned the music up loud.When wearing a helmet you do not need to seat the earbuds fully into the ear canal with both hands and thus you can wear them for extended periods of time without getting sore. If you ride a bike with factory exhaust there is a good chance you will not be able to hear your engine at low rpms while wearing a helmet. I would recommend wearing a pair of disposable ear plugs before purchasing this product, especially if you are a new rider. Try riding without being able to hear your engine before spending money on these, you may not like it.

A serious alternative to lesser earbuds
These earbuds may not be for everyone, and using them has some drawbacks, but after going through several sets of buds over the last few years I had some clear goals for my next set, and the Shure SE215 met those goals. Durabilty is my primary goal for this latest purchase, but only time will tell if these earbuds are durable. But that is how I became interested in the SE215, because I found it recommended on several Net review sites listing durable buds. They have a detachable cable, and the cable is probably where most earbuds eventually fail, although it isn't always clear where the failure occurs. Usually, I just hear that one side starts cutting out or goes dead completely. Unfortunately, replacement cables for these are as expensive as a cheap set of buds, but even with regular cable replacement, the cost of ownership of these buds may turn out to be less than frequently replacing cheaper sets.One thing that people may want to know about this product is that it was apparently designed as an in-ear monitor for musicians and not necessarily an earbud designed for use with an iPod or cell phone, although that is probably how most people use it. As such, it has several design characteristics that are different from most earbuds. There are no flashy colors or aggressive shapes. The cable is comparatively long, and it lacks the rubbery flexibility of other earbud cables. The base model also lacks in-line controls, although a model with inline controls is available at extra cost. I opted for the base model without inline controls and bought an aftermarket cable that has the controls. The combination is about the same cost as the one with inline controls but I get two cables instead of one.In use, the SE215 is the best sounding and most comfortable set of buds I have ever owned. Some people describe the sound as bass heavy, but I only found that to be the case if the sleeves are of the silicone flange variety and are very tight fitting. In my experience, these buds are best used with the compressible foam style of sleeves, and I am currently using the largest set of these that came with the set. The compressible foam sleeves tend to de-emphasize bass, as well as being more comfortable. With the foam sleeves, I would characterize the sound as balanced, but still with excellent bass. I have no doubt that a big part of the perceived sound quality of the SE215 is due to its sound isolating qualities. Without some degree of sound isolation, the listener simply won't hear a lot of detail and nuance in the sound. The best comparison I can make is that using the SE215 is close to the experience of using a good set of over the ear head phones. That is high praise, but over the ear head phones are also designed for sound isolation, hence the similarity. Because of the sound isolation and the detail that comes through in the music, the experience of using these buds is immersive and strangely addictive. Using the SE215 has become my favorite way of listening to music.These buds are also the most comfortable I have ever used, especially for long listening sessions. They don't fall out easily because of normal body movements like walking, and because of the over the ear cable routing, small tugs on the cable don't yank them out either. The downside is that getting the buds properly inserted and the cable properly routed is a fiddly and time consuming process. Because of the detachable connector, the cable rotates freely on the earbud and everything has to be held in just the right position to get them properly placed. Another small quibble is that the set does not come with a cable clip. I had to scavenge one from one of my dead earbud sets. This is an omission that should be rectified.It remains to be seen if I can list durability as Pro instead of a Con, but here is my Pro and Con summary of the SE215:Pros- Sound isolation and sound quality make for an immersive listening experience- Nice bass, but not too heavy as some others claim- Very comfortable for long listening sessions- Replaceable cable- Once properly placed, they tend to stay putCons- Price- Getting inline controls for portable devices is an additional cost- Fiddly earbud placement and cable routing- Stiff cable- Lack of a cable clip
