« on: May 31, 2011, 04:37:11 PM »
So I was wondering if any of you guys here in the forums tried this new IEM from Shure?

Jgirbaux was the one who bought it from him :)

For audition, its available at park square if you want to try it. But it costs around 7-8k. Also be wary of the build issues of this iem. Alot of people have experienced problems with it
If it looks bad CF it, If it sounds bad DENKO it!

I'd love to get my hands on one, but it's too expensive locally (you can probably get something like a DBA-02 at that price), and too risky to buy from somewhere like Amazon (known build issues).  :(

5th avenue might be carrying these if I'm not mistaken

i think moonbeam should come this friday... text him kalikot, so he could prepare for it..

if he has a class, then it will be a DLSU-UM meet  :)
it is not about the "cost" of the rig, but on how you "value" it.

Game let's meet at UM this Friday! I'm out by 4:10.  :)

@SlickSteiner

So far I'm really impressed by the sound. Clear mids with punchy (but not overpowering) bass, slightly rolled-off highs. I just don't like how the wires swivel (the part where the earphone body connects with the removable cables). Looks sturdy -- it should last me a couple of years but I read some build issues on this model in Head-Fi. The faulty units are the early production units though (purchased before April). Hopefully mine won't conk out. Cables here are around P3,000-P3,500 according to Audiophile which is quite steep.

Yes the Shure detachable cables are made to be detachable and swivel around like a plug :) I dont know if it's a convenience. The cable prices are astonishing though :o that's like triple the price of the competition's stock cables.

Can't wait to hear the SE215. I'm sure Ceph will rush to your house to hear it (I'm sure he will be one as well)

It's not like their cables are known for their build quality...
