Description of Shure SE215-K Sound Isolating Earphones: Professional Audio Quality, Secure In-Ear Fit - Black

“-K” designates the product's color variation (black). Evolved from personal monitor technology that's been road-tested by pro musicians, the SE215 offers detailed sound with enhanced bass for personal listening or professional monitoring. Comfortable sound isolating sleeves block up to 37 dB of ambient noise. Sound isolation technology prevents outside noise from interfering with your listening experience, whether on-stage or on-the-go. Lightweight, low-profile shape with optimized nozzle angle is designed to rest comfortably in the ear. Durable reinforced cable allows easy replacement or customization. Formable wire ensures secure placement, and over-the-ear configuration keeps cables out of the way. Gold plated MMCX Connector has a lock-snap mechanism allowing 360-degree rotation for comfortable fit. Fit Kit includes three sizes (S, M, L) of the flex and black foam sleeves. Experiment with the size and style that creates the best fit for you. A good seal is key to optimizing sound isolation and bass response as well as maximizing comfort during extended wear. A soft-zip, compact carrying case is included to provide a convenient, tangle-free solution to store and travel with your earphones. Wireless SE215 earphones (with a Bluetooth communication cable) are also available. Sold separately in 4 colors (Clear: SE215-CL-BT1, Black: SE215-K-BT1, Blue: SE215SPE-B-BT1, White: SE215SPE-W-BT1).

I really like the product, it fully meets my expectations.

Good in-ear monitors. I use it for drum lessons. Good passive noise isolation, so if there is music in the headphones, you need to sound the instrument. As the main headphones are not suitable because of the pronounced bottoms.

Pros
  • Noise isolation, three-pin (no microphone)

Good sound but lacks quality

Good headphones. I'm not an expert on sound quality so I can't use buzzwords, but I can definitely tell how they differ from stock Android headphones. Foam ear tips do a good job of blocking out outside noise, resulting in richer sound and deeper bass. One important note is how they fit over the ears - the wires are designed to go through the ears and I find that very frustrating. They're difficult to put on without using both hands, and the memory wires around the earbuds don't fit as well as…

Pros
  • Heavy-duty armored cable makes replacement or adjustment easy. The molded wire ensures a secure fit, and the in-ear configuration keeps cables out of the way. The gold-plated MMCX connector features a snap-on mechanism that allows 360-degree rotation for a snug fit.
Cons
  • Expensive

Loved it, maybe the best headphones in the price range

I bought these about three years ago and here are my impressions of the headphones after using them for three years. In short, they're worth every penny I spent on them, buy it, it's not. is a mystery to me. Good part: 1. Sound quality was really good, iPhones have no problem with headphones, even better if you use a 3.5mm adapter on newer iPhones. He has clear vocals and enough bass. It has more bass than Bose SoundTrues and more clarity than some American brands like Monster, Beats2. The…

Pros
  • -K" indicates the color variation of the product (black).
Cons
  • Broadly ok but...

Outstanding headphones for their class and price

I followed another reviewer's advice to get the DeOxy Gold liquid and prime the contacts before even using them for the first time and have had absolutely no technical issues with these headphones for more than 2 years. SOUND QUALITY: 4.5/5. Not bad, but not the best sound quality I've heard. The bass isn't as punchy and crisp as other pairs I've had before. For general music enjoyment, though, they're still quite good quality for the type and class of headphones they're supposed to be. I often

Pros
  • Based on personal monitoring technology proven by professional musicians, the SE215 headphones deliver detailed sound with enhanced bass for personal listening or professional monitoring.
Cons
  • Available in white only

A reliable performer!: In-Ear Headphones

I would describe these as entry level 'high quality' headphones. Their top devices cost close to $1,000. Here's what I've experienced so far: Packaging: Looks like they've been taken out and put back in, but that's not really the case. One of the marshmallow buds had broken off. I let him sit, but he still keeps his "broken" shape. Fit: I was nervous at first, but once you position them correctly and slide the cord over and behind your ear, they're quite comfortable. I've used other…

Pros
  • Lightweight, low-profile headphones with optimized ear tips designed to fit comfortably in your ear.
Cons
  • Unbelievable price

Should have ignored Reddit and picked this

I've been looking for a pair of IEMs to wear to work for a while and as I use the SRH1540 set as my daily riders they were first on my list to try. However, after consulting with galactic brains on Reddit, I was convinced that the 215 was horribly outdated and there are many chifi variants that work better. This led me on a journey of trying and returning many sets of highly acclaimed IEMs that all sounded the same to my ears. They all had the same boosted lower bass, punched out mids and…

Pros
  • in the first place. Comfortable soundproof covers block up to 37 dB of ambient noise. Soundproofing technology prevents outside noise from interfering with your listening experience, whether on stage or on the go.
Cons
  • Doubtful
