Also only compare models not brands please. Shure have some really good models around and I'm sure they have some not so good ones either (it's a given considering how many they have)
Trance N Dance on 11/07/2010 - 23:38 ¶Although Ultimate Ears are nice, they've sorta went downhill ever since Logitech took over, concentrating on style rather than sound quality. (anything below super fi 5 aren't that great, the super fi 5 pro were good with their dual drivers, but ever since Logitech came in they made it look good and droped the 5 to a single driver. Their dual driver offering the 700 is aweful.) The only models that are still good from UE are their customs and Metro.fi (in terms of bang for buck, especially with LTS's sales)

Have you tried the UE700 personally? I have not but all the reviews were glowing about it.
- Old School on 12/07/2010 - 12:58 ¶
I don't own any UE earphones. I'm on Sony earphones. My reply was specific to the price point ($150) and not brand. Again, as I've mentioned earlier, Shure shines at higher price points, SE530 for example. Etymotics do good earphones too at $100 - $200 price points.
evolution-flip on 11/07/2010 - 14:43 ¶Shure has a 24 months warranty and it is one of the best. They replaced my e2c earphones after 30 months and even when it was my fault that they got damaged. The 12 months CoTD warranty sure sounds dodgy.
If you're after something like high-end earphones, go the Head-direct RE0 for $90 delivered off head-direct's website. If you want local trade practices act coverage, buy from headphones.com.au for $139.
They're definitely more capable than these shures, and align more with $450 earphones (I've compared them to some very high end pieces of equipment)
micromanage on 12/07/2010 - 01:01 ¶I have the ety er4p, bro has head direct re0, and other bro has the v2 super fi 5. Guess which one was the newest and screwed up?
The UE super fi 5 which was from LTS screwed up and is waiting to be RMA'd.
I'd say the re0 is the best choice as it has some fo the characteristics of the er4p without being too pricy. I was quite disappointed by the lacklustre performance of the super fi 5 which had nothing against the 4p or re0. The isolation of the re0 is decent but not as good as the 4p (best isolator).
PS. I also owned the shure e2c which broke coz of the crap cable. I dont think the E310 is much better than the e2c so I would imply that the Re0 is still a better choice.

For $150 I'd be looking at Westone UM1's or Westone 1's from earphonesolutions.com
+1 voteWestone earphones are amazing - I had the chance to test a few of them whilst overseas - was on the last leg of my trip and wallet was a bit light by then so I couldn't bring myself to buying a pair
I began with stock buds and moved into Etymotic (which broke) and then a pair of UE metro's and am currently using a pair of Shure SE115's. I can highly recommend the Shure SE115's so I'm kind of thinking about a pair of these since I missed out on the UE700's from logitechshop.
For all the ppl out there that are wary of spending more than $20 on a pair of earphones - you're entitled to your own opinion but if you're like me and spend 2hrs commuting to/from work each day; the ability to noticeably listen to better sounding songs and have the ability to properly block out external sound is priceless. Apart from all the bus sounds the last thing I want to hear is some random commuter's phone conversation or their own music because they've cranked up the volume about 20 blips higher than their ear wants
got the Shure SE530, from the last COD deal for $305 shipped.
Well what can i say, its a open box item and looks like a really old stock from 2008. But sure it is the genuine stuff…and Sounds awesome compare to my Westone UM2, now only worries is the warranty, who is going to handle it, the original listing says 24 month manufacturer warranty.
but as far as i know you need to buy the earphone from a genuine dealer to get the warranty from shure directly.
got to send a email to COD

Warranty would be delt with the distributor, COTD might have had a deal done with a local distributor to clear out old stock.

COTD warranty? dodgy!
