SE215 PRO Sound Isolating Wired Earbuds - Black

This is not the first set of Shure earbuds I've owned. I had a set of the E2c's, which were fantastic. After about 5 years of hard labor, they finally gave up the ghost, and suffered the usual death by cable rot to which that series of buds were so prone. So I took to the search for a replacement, and these were my criteria... 1. They must be in-ear style buds, with the option to switch the sleeves (The piece that goes in the ear). Also, they must include those swappable pieces. 2. They must have a good warranty of at least 2 years. 3. They must not cost more than ~100 USD. 4. They must sound great. (These are in no order of preference, and all considered equal) So with that in mind, I also need to mention that I was partial to Shure. Mostly, because the E2c's were my first real good set of earphones, and broke down all my stigmas as to "Why would anyone pay so much for headphones?" So here is my review. The Sleeves - There are 2 different types of sleeves bundled with this set; one a flexible rubber, the other a re-expandable foam. Each has three separate sizes, to help you find a good fit. I tried both. The foam sleeves feel nice, so long as you insert them like earplugs. They expand nicely to your ear canal. They offer fantastic sound isolation, and stay inside. The rubber sleeves are comfortable, but they are constantly being pulled out of your ears by the very stiff cord. I will try them again once I get the cord broken in a bit more, but for now, I'm going with the foam sleeves. The Warranty - 2 years, not bad, but my E2c's had 3. From what I hear, the cable rot issue is still going on, but I will expand on that in a minute. The cost - If you can get them for 100 USD, then do it. I think they are normally 2X that price. The Sound - At first, I was a bit worried. I was hearing some odd pops in the earphones. Pops that I shouldn't be hearing from a headset this expensive. But, that turned out to be from the player I had them plugged into. I tried a different source, and no pops. They are at least as good as my E2c's were when I first got them. There is some talk about the lows and highs and all that, and I don't know about all that. I know that I was getting some weird looks at the restaurant I was at when I was headbanging and booth-breaking (sit down dancing at my table) to the music. I listen to a lot of rock, electronica, and trip hop, and it all sounds great. Other Stuff - I mentioned the cables, and for good reason. Shure has a history of cable rot; the insulation on the wires literally rots off, and results in dead headphones. To combat that, they have added 2 features. One, an additional layer of insulation around where the wire goes over the ear (The most common place of rot). This likely extends the life of the cable, which makes it even thicker than it already is, which makes it VERY stiff. This stiffness leads to the cable not staying in place, and needing some serious breaking in, which in turn could lead to breaking the wire. So be careful, and be patient. If you use the foam sleeves, then it isn't that big of a problem. The other thing is that they made the cable able to be detached from the earpiece, which means you can replace it if it goes bad. This is nice, except that, it's proprietary. It is unlikely that Shure will still have these cables in a few years available for purchase or otherwise. So while it's a nice feature, you likely won't be able to use it for anything other than changing the color of your wires. (It would likely be a good idea to order a spare once these earbuds are discontinued). I also want to comment on the case that comes with the set. At first, I didn't like it, becasue my previous Shure's had such a nice case. It was solid, with an insert in the middle that you could wrap the cords around and place the drivers inside of. This case is soft, and has no way to manage the cables or drivers other than jsut stuffing them inside, which is what I didn't like at first. But over time, I have grown to like how much more compact it is. The soft case fits easily into my pocket, and keeps everything pretty contained (the last case bulged a lot). And I've never once had an issue where I felt they were compromised as a result. So I would say the soft case works quite well, and has a sharp looking Shure logo on it. So that's my experience with the 215's. I recommend them to anyone that knows how important a good set of headphones are, but doesn't have a lot of money to dedicate to them.

Before I start off the review, I would like to put a disclaimer in that I am not an audiophile in any way. What I'm about to say is based off of my experience and what may be good will be considered negative to other users. Please bear in mind that not everyone will have the same hearing you do so with that said let the review begin. I reviewed the HAFX101 headphones and pretty much convinced myself not to purchase any earphones that cost above a 100 due to the sound quality that those earphones gave off. I thought "why need to spend a ridiculous amount of money just to get "high end" item when you can buy multiple earphones and have backups for you in the event that you break them". I was definitely wrong and being really ignorant. I just purchased these . I'm going to admit, these earphones are amazing. Of course, I wouldn't know what the other high end earphones are like since these are my first time purchasing high end (many of you will probably not consider this high end so I apologize for calling them an upper tier, bear with me for a bit) earphones and NOT HEADPHONES and the difference between these and the HAFX101's make it distinguishable day and night. I'm hearing things that I don't normally hear especially with my old HAFX101 and on top of that they even make my Bose Soundtrue headphones very underwhelming. The high's are very warm and not screechy, bass isn't muddled (thank the sound gods) and audible, mids are strong and clear with again details that I've never heard with my other earphones. Even at lower hearing volumes you can still hear each and every distinct sound and instrument that you can find (I have sensitive hearing so I usually play songs at 2 - 4 volume and sometimes 5 but no more than that on the Note 4. I preferably play at 3 because I like playing for hours on end). On top of that you have MODULAR SET of earphones and what I mean by module is that you can seperate the actual earphones from the cables just as you can see in the pictures presented in the product page which means, if you ever break your cables you don't have two buy a new pair. All you have to do is buy a replacement cable and your set and you also have a 2 year warranty from shure so if anything ever happens to your pair then just mail them in and your good to go for a brand new set (just as long as you follow their policy for warranty then you should be in good hands with Shure). The one thing I'm a tad bit concerned is how you change the earpieces on the earphones. It feels like your yanking out the whole assembly and I'm the type of person that is OCD about keeping things in good condition. Seeing that, I decided to remove the memory foams (I'm comfortable with the silicone tips) and decided to never remove the pieces again. The way you place these inside your ears is something your going to have to get used to and I found myself struggling for a couple of minutes just to be able to put these earphones in both of your ears. One more thing that is just a personal issue of mine (not sure if anyone else hear feels the same way) but I just wished that the earphones themselves (not the cables) we're made of some type of metal like the RHA T10i (which I might purchase as a collection of earphones). It would've been icing on the cake to have had these made out of metal but that's just a personal preference. At the end of the day, I still give these 5 stars due to it's design, functionality, and most of all it's sound quality and as to the people who are wondering.... why in the world am I giving it 5 when I was able to find a good amount of negatives that came along with it. Well..... again it depends on a person's experience with their earphones and honestly, all those things the I listed are OUTWEIGHED by the positives that are presented in these earphones. With that said, this has nothing but a joy to my ears and to the purchasing price and for a 100 bucks, you can't go wrong with these earphones. I probably will give an update on how these earphones are but so far, I'm really happy with my purchase and do I want to venture out and see all the other great earphones available, why yes I do. Many more reviews to come and this is just one of those reviews (a very satisfying review).

Recently my Monster Turbines kicked the bucket so I was in the market for a new set of Ear buds for around $100. After researching for days I found that these made allot of lists for best headphones for about $100 so I decided give them a try. Initially I struggled getting them in my ear, the cable goes over the front of your ear and down behind it, and way they fit into your ear was a foreign to me at first. Maybe I was tired; maybe I had one too many beers, but had to Google some images to figure it out! Finally, I got them in my ears and cables situated, and I will say that they are perfectly comfortable. I wear them at work and they do a great job of noise isolation, so much so that I have to take them out when someone needs to speak with me. Compared to my old Turbines which had just your standard ear bud fit, these don’t easily pop out and back in, it takes 15-20 seconds to get them on and situated. I know that’s a small complaint, but when you have to do it often, it can be cumbersome. Finally my last complaint is the jack that plugs into your MP3 player is fat and doesn’t play well with cases. I have to take my I phone case off in order to plug it in. Now, on with the good; I was not sure if I liked them initially as they had much more bottom heavy sound, the Turbines were much brighter. After some time I realized the sound stage is just different and they grew on me. Listening to music, I heard elements I never knew existed in some of my favorite songs! They sound great! I would definitely recommend them if you’re in the market for a set of IEM’s and have a $100 budget. Pros: • Removable cable can be replaced with one that controls your I phone • Great sounding for the price • Noise Isolation • Multiple Tips to customize fit Cons: • May be too Bass heavy for some • Very different fit then a standard ear bud • Plug to fat to work with most cases

Bose IE2i and Bose AE2 I had a pair of Bose IE2i to listen to music when in my office, studying, running, gym, etc. I also had a pair of Bose AE2 that I used to play my electric drum set. I got tired of the IE2i and stopped using them altogether because those do not isolate any noises whatsoever. Like the new Bose SoundSport the earphone tips/buds are extremely comfortable, but you can hear every single noise from outside. I tried to use the IE2i in several 5-hr flights and they are useless. The AE2 sounded very good and isolated some noise. Enough to enjoy using them with my drumkit, but not enough to use on a plane ride. SE425 Fantastic mid-range, poor bass and low-end; low impedance; long and strong cord; ability to replace only the cord if broken. Very comfortable behind-the-ear cord and position on the ear with great noise isolation. Given their lack of low-range these could not satisfy my needs. Expensive. Bose SoundTrue Ultra in-ear STIE Great balanced sound; strong bass; short and thin/flimsy cord; includes iPhone controls. Very comfortable silicone tips that provide great noise isolation, but you can hear the cord touching against any surface. Easy and fast to take on/off. The earphones wiggle a bit when running, though not enough to break the sound seal. Relatively expensive. SE215 Great balanced sound; strong bass; low impedance; long and strong cord, ability to replace only the cord if broken. Very comfortable behind-the-ear cord and position on the ear with great noise isolation. I can hear comfortably with 2/16 volume bars from the iPhone. Used 5/16 volume bars on the iPhone when running with 15 mph winds and was amazing. After a learning curve, you get used to quickly putting them on/off. Inexpensive. Overall I got the SE425 first and discarded them for their lack of bass. I couldn't notice much of a sound difference between the STIE and the SE215. The SE215 have a lower impedance and thus sound louder but the quality is, to me, quite comparable (My suggestion: get a tight seal, don't go too deep into your ear). The benefits of the SE215 suit my overall needs better and ended up choosing these. Notes 1. I will post this same review in all three products hoping others will find it useful. 2. I am traveling in a couple of days and if I find a good store in an airport that will let me try the SE535 I will make an update to this post. The SE535 are supposed to be as good as the SE425 with the bass that the latter so deeply lack. ******UPDATE****** A store at the Chicage O'Hare airport let me try the SE535. Here is my short review: SE535 Fantastic balanced sound; great bass and low-end; low-enough impedance; long and strong cord, ability to replace only the cord if broken. Very comfortable behind-the-ear cord and position on the ear with great noise isolation. Many eartips to try for different occassions (e.g. biking, office, airplane). I can hear comfortably with 2/16 volume bars from the iPhone. With 3/16 volume bars on iPhone 5S the sound is astonishing, lead guitar doesn't sound over rythm guitar, bass and drums sound great and all sounds are complimenting one another as opposed to fighting over which is the primary sounding one. I use them for running, biking, skating, working out, in the office, at the library, coffee shop, in the car (passenger), on airplanes, and with my Roland TD30-KV electric drumkit. I never need more than 4/16 volume bars on my iPhone 5S. I specially like the versatility of these IEMs and quality of their sound. Expensive. I sincerely hope you find this review helpful!

First off there's so many reviews on these I didn't think I'd write one, but I felt I have something to highlight. This is my use of them, my content and source. I have an Fiio X3 DAP and listen to lossless flack CD rips. I bought all of this for incentive to get to the gym, receiving them about 4-5 weeks ago. I can say that out of the box I really wasn't all too happy. When first them, as it has been mentioned over and over in many reviews, the bass was very lacking and I found them to be quite harsh maybe around 4K or so. I fiddled with the EQ on the Fiio endlessly and just managed to feel they were OK at best. However, for my use at the gym they worked extremely well, in terms of staying in my ears. I really like the fact that the cords are over your ears, allowing the cord to get a pretty good tug without pulling them out. I'm using the large soft inserts and they are very comfortable. So, I've been using them 4 days a week about 2 hours on those days, plus I let them play 2 days solid when I got them, now there has been just an insane transformation after all that usage. I'm experienced with high end audio and know break-in is important and thought 2 days of solid play when I first got them would do, but it just wasn't enough time. I am now very very impressed, with overall sound quality, bass response, clarity in the highs and mids, and now have turned my EQ off on my Fiio. What I can say, and what should be very obvious, if the music is recorded well, the bass if fantastic, it's very tight and deep. The vocals are simply outstanding and there's lots of detail in the mids and highs. If I'm listening to just general rock when I'm working out, yes there's not much bass. IF IT'S NOT RECORDED THAT WAY nor would there be bass when I listen to those same tracks on some of my other equipment. In contrast if I listen Maroon 5 or Allen Stone, there are tracks that I just have to turn down the volume because there is so much bass, again no EQ. For pleasure I listen to a lot of jazz, with vocals and without and these live up to and exceed what I thought they might. For most of this listening I'm attracted to music that has high sound quality, artists like Dianna Krall, Norah Jones, Fourplay, Joe Sample, Bob James, ect. With well made recordings like these, the headphones are very invisible, and I tend to feel very immersed in the music and forget I'm wearing them. The vocals are centered and they have a very open and airy sound stage. They give a definite feel of the ambiance in which the recording was made especially in the vocals and back up singers. Piano and acoustic guitar's sound very accurate and equal to my impression of the vocals. So bottom line IMO is, don't pay attention to reviewer's that listened to them right out of the box or with little play time and thought they were less than they really are. And most of all don't expect that they'll be more than the quality of the recordings you have and the equipment your playing them on. If you're listening to 128kbps files on your ipod, you won't come close to hearing the full potential of what these can offer. Just buy something cheaper.

These are my second pair of earbuds after years of relying on headphones. I bought them to replace my Klipsch X4i which developed a short circuit just a bit more than a year after I bought them (and, natch, just past the end of the warranty period). Background: I am not an audiophile. I dislike heavy bass music. Indeed, I dislike loud music of any kind. I use earbuds/headphones primarily to listen to the radio and mp3 files while walking (of which I do a lot, in quiet neighborhoods and busy city centers). I neither run nor do any other kind of exercise with them. That said: 1. SOUND QUALITY I do notice a difference in sound quality between these and the Klipsch X4i. I think it is richer, but audio performance is so subjective, individuals have such different wishes, that's about all I can say. 2. COMFORT/FIT It took me a couple of hours to figure out how to use my first earbuds (Klipsch X4i) and get comfortable taking them in and out. I spent probably close to 12 hours over several days trying to get the Shure to not only fit, but fit comfortably, and I still can't put them "on and off" as quickly or as easily as I can the Klipsch X4i. You can see from the image that these earbuds are both bigger than ordinary earbuds and shaped differently. I assume the engineers figured that the shape/size combination would help seal off outside noise more effectively by putting a bigger barrier in the outer ear. Unfortunately, I suspect that they must have tested the design on men with ears of a certain size. I have to tug and pull and twist all parts of my ear to try and get these to fit snugly. And when I got them to fit "properly" in my outer ear, the inner part, the part that extends into the ear canal with the eartips, never, ever quite get "in". I could get the inside more or less plugged up only by letting the exterior body of the earbuds sort of stick outwards from my ear. These earbuds are, not unexpectedly, also heavier than my previous earbuds and not pleasantly so. I switched from headphones to earbuds precisely because I found the pressure of the former uncomfortable. On a short walk, this doesn't matter so much. At first, they are a bit uncomfortable. Then I get used to them. But on longer walks, the discomfort returns and I pretty much can't wait to get home and take them out. 3. NOISE ISOLATION With the supplied eartips, noise isolation was close to zero. I tried them all. I even tried making my own out of standard earplugs (there's a lifehacker video showing how to do this: http://lifehacker.com/5347245/make-comfortable-noise-isolating-earbuds-for-less-than-a-dollar). I did once, for a few minutes, manage to get a good seal in my left ear but I haven't been able to reproduce it. No doubt, with enough time and effort I might. Then I discovered "pluggerz - music" in a Walgreens (in the section with various kinds of earplugs). These are the standard triple-flanged earplugs one can usually buy to block noise, but they are designed for use with earbuds. I've never liked this style much; I prefer the softer, rounded foam earplugs. $10 for two, but I was getting desperate. They were easy to attach to the Shure and almost immediately gave me incredible noise isolation. I still can't get the body of the earbud to fit snugly in my outer ear, but other than its probably looking peculiar, it doesn't affect the noise isolation. Others have mentioned the background "noise", the sound of the cables, while using these earbuds. With the supplied eartips, which provided almost no noise isolation, I didn't notice this. With the pluggerz, I do. In short, there seems to be a trade-off between hearing a certain amount of outside (traffic, etc.) noise but nothing else and hearing little or no outside noise but having this kind of hum/white noise/cable movement in the background. CONCLUSION I plan to replace these with a more conventional style of earbuds as soon as I can afford to do so. The pluggerz give me good noise isolation, and the audio is really quite good with the Shure, but they are simply way too uncomfortable for extended use - for me.

I’ve been using these for my gaming sessions lately, and honestly, they’ve been a total game-changer. I was looking for something that wouldn't feel heavy on my head after a few hours, and these hit the spot perfectly. The sound is so clear and detailed—I’m picking up on subtle cues in-game that I used to miss with my old headset. Plus, the bass has this really deep, satisfying punch that makes everything feel more immersive without drowning out the important stuff. Why I’m sticking with them: The Silence: The way these block out background noise is incredible. Once I have them in, I can’t hear the hum of my PC or anything else going on in the house. It’s just me and the game. Zero Fatigue: Unlike big over-ear headphones that get hot or feel heavy, I can wear these for a long session and almost forget they’re there. Rock Solid Build: You can tell these were built to last. The detachable cables are a genius move because if I ever accidentally tug on them too hard, I can just replace the cord instead of the whole unit. A quick pro-tip: It takes a second to get used to the "loop over the ear" style, but once you find the right ear tip size, they aren't going anywhere. If you’re a gamer who wants professional-grade sound without the "gamer headset" bulk, I can’t recommend these enough. They’ve made my setup feel so much more refined.

I decided to finally shell out for a proper set of earbuds for riding my motorcycle and these were the most often-recommended on forums for that purpose. Having used a bunch of cheap earbuds and fairing acceptably well with them, it was tough to get myself to pay for these but I was about to ride a week-long trip and wanted to finally do it right. The short version is that they are totally worth the money. I will use these for the foreseeable future and am glad I paid for them. The sound really is vastly better than any pair of cheap earbuds. Wind noise inside a less-than-very-well-designed motorcycle helmet can be surprisingly irritating to the point of being fatiguing, so before figuring out how to get earbuds to stay in while donning a helmet I had always worn disposable foam ear plugs, and good, more-expensive ones at that. These do a much better job blocking that noise, as well as making it easier to hear the quieter parts of music at the same time without jacking up the volume until you do permanent damage to your hearing. I picked up the recommended triple flange sleeves but haven't tried them yet. The included soft black rubber sleeves have done a good job of sealing noise out and sound in, this is important as the better the seal the better they sound, and less volume is needed to be content with the sound which is important for both your long term hearing and short term endurance. If they make your ears sore after a while, try a different set of sleeves, there's a good reason they come with a bunch of different sizes. The cords are pretty smart. They are easy to remove from the buds themselves but I haven't had them pull out of the buds while donning my helmet. There's a short length of stiffer, bendable wire at the bud ends that curves around the top of your ears which makes it much, much easier to keep the buds in your ears while putting on a helmet, which was a huge learning curve for me with cheap earbuds, and caused no end of frustration both to me and riding buddies who had to wait for me to get it right every time we'd get moving after a helmet-off stop during a single outing. You probably won't get your money's worth from these if you aren't skilled at using a graphic equalizer. I run Jet Audio Plus on my Android phone and even with the included equalizer I find that while listening at home, I can adjust it for each track and improve my satisfaction. This is not viable or necessary while riding, but if you don't tune your audio source at all, you're wasting money on these. They sound as good as a $100 set of big fat over-the-ear studio headphones and most smartphones really don't drive them right in factory configuration. Start with a standard parabolic curve and bring the lower third up another point or two each. If using Jet Audio, try, from left to right (6, 5, 3, 1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 2, 3). Adjust each up or down while listening to one track and see what works for you.

Sono eccezionali!, suono pulito e potente

Absolutely fantastic.A perfect buy for all the true music fans who are very concerned with the quality of the sound and the clarity of each musical instruments.The price maybe a bit high but worth every penny if you are looking for an earphone with amazing clarity.Post-Rock,Jazz,Metal music lovers will adore this wonderful piece.I listen this with my Ipod nano,and boy it works wonders. PS: Not really for the bass heads

Après avoir essayé plusieurs solutions pour avoir de la musique ou des podcast pendant mon travail bruyant, ces écouteurs sont parfaits. Je les utilise sous un casque anti bruit ou avec le casque de moto. Ils sont confortables et ont une super qualité sonore comparé à des casques antibruit connectés ou des écouteurs standards. Le câble est un peu trop long pour mon utilisation du coup il s'accroche parfois et il s'est un peu abîmé, j'en commanderais un plus court s'il fini par s’abîmer au point de ne plus marcher.

Je voulais trouver une solution pour jouer sur ma batterie électronique autrement qu'avec un gros casque. Ces écouteurs sont compliqués à positionner sur l'oreille, le noise cancelling n'est pas aussi convaincant que sur mes jbl truewireless et finalement le son n'est pas à la hauteur de mes attentes car strident sur les hautes fréquences.

###Zunächst die technischen Daten laut Hersteller: Lautsprechertyp: Single Dynamic MicroDriver Empfindlichkeit: 107 dB SPL/mW Impedanz: 20 Ω Übertragungsbereich: 22 Hz - 17,5 kHz Kabellänge: 162 cm Farbe: Transparent, Schwarz ###Lieferumfang: Soft Transport-Tasche Sound Isolating Ohrpassstücke: Schwarze Schaumstoff-Ohrpassstücke (S, M, L) Silikon-Ohrpassstücke (S, M, L) Kopfhörer mit Kabel, Bedienungsanleitung ###Design Zugegeben, die Kopfhörer sehen sehr ungewöhnlich aus. Beim ersten Versuch sind sie es auch, aber sobald man sich dran gewöhnt hat will man nix anderes mehr. Die ersten 5cm seitens der kopfhörers sind mit Draht versteift, so dass das Kabel erst über und dann hinter das Ohr gelegt wird (Man kennt es von Musikern auf der Bühne, sieht aus wie Ohrstöpsel). Es ergibt sich ein riesiger Vorteil der mich immer an In-Ears gestört hat: Wenn am Kabel gezogen wird (z.B. beim Sport), so verändert sich die Position des Kopfhörers im Ohr selbst kaum bis gar nicht. Auch im Liegen oder im Flugzeug liegen sie komplett im Ohr und man hat so keine Schmerzen auf Dauer. ###Klang Zugegeben, in den Höhen fehlt es bei klassischer Musik ein wenig an Glanz. Geht man allerdings von alltäglichem Pop, HipHop, Electro oder ähnlichem aus so ist am Frequenzbereich wenig auszusetzen. Der Bass kommt super Druckvoll, die Höhen ließen sich ein wenig mit dem Equalizer hochdrücken. Ich behaupte, dass die SE215 sehr positiv auf Equilizer Einstellungen reagieren. Getestet wurde erst an einem Harman Kardon AVR 435, der Sound war sehr knackig und gut auf den Punkt gebracht. Anschließend nahm ich sie zum Sport mit einem Galaxy S3, man merkt schnell dass der interne Verstärker im Handy nicht so ganz die gewünschte Leistung zur Verfügung stellt. Allerdings würde ich dies nicht zum Nachteil der SE215 nennen, da der Klang dennoch wirklich sehr gut war. Auch die Lautstärke wird vermutlich für die meisten ausreichen. ###Das Kabel Das Kabel ist 162mm lang und scheint zumindest optisch hochwertig zu sein. Auch wenn die meisten wissen dass vergoldete (im Gegensatz zu Silber) Anschlüsse kaum einen Einfluss besitzen, sind diese hochwertig verarbeitet. Das Kabel lässt sich an beiden Kopfhörern abklipsen und austauschen, so dass bei einem Kabelbruch nicht direkt der Kopfhörer für die Tonne ist. Sehr positiv für einen In-Ear! ###Tragekomfort nach 2 Wochen Nach 2 Wochen ausgiebiger Nutzung bin ich begeistert. Man merkt die SE215 kaum im Ohr, auch beim Sport bisher in meinen Augen keine weitere Verbesserung des Designs möglich. ###Geräuschunterdrückung Wer lästiges Gerede im Bus nicht mag, für den sind diese Kopfhörer das richtige. Die Geräuschunterdrückung ist unglaublich. ###Fazit in meinen Augen sind die Shure SE215 K absolut empfehlenswert. Ob beim Sport, auf dem Weg zur Uni/Arbeit/Schule, Reisen oder einfach zu Hause, die SE215 machen eine gute Figur. Ich habe für meine 92€ bezahlt, gemessen an den Vorgängern von Bose für knapp 120€ ist der Preis akzeptabel. Der Klang ist in meinen Augen besser, für diejenigen die keine audiophilen Züge aufweisen oder auschließlich klassische Musik hören, wo ggf. der fehlende Glanz manch ein Instrument unreal klingen lässt. Für alle anderen: Klare Kaufempfehlung!
