[Review] Shure SE110 earphones

runtohell121 · 04-21-2008, 03:16 PM

well, first off, this is a review about the Shure SE110 which price supposely it is about $24.99-$99.99.

You can easily tell the difference between some very cheap earphones and this, the bass quality is very good.. sound is good also. I've tested a lot of earphones, such as Griffin TuneBuds, JVC Marshmallow, Altec Lansing uhh... i forgot what model, JVC Gumy, Zune Premium V1, and others... too many to list, so far the sound quality and bass is the best on the Shure SE110. It is very Comfortable also, same as the JVC Marshmallow since it uses a form as the tip instead of flex.

Rating: 9/10
pros: bass, sound quality, price(if you can get for $25), comes with a case, about 6 different kind of tips for your earphone
cons: very expensive if you can't get for cheap, not much, besides falling out easy if the wire didn't wrap around your ear.

More pics coming soon.
pics of my own

that case is very useful

i can fit my zune 4 in it

I've been looking at these for some time now. When I played in a band we used Shure Mics and Shure in ear monitors. They were by far the best in-ear monitors that weren't going to completely break the bank. I've heard negative reviews about these ones though which has kept me from buying them. I've read that the bass leaves a lot to the imagination and falls short and that the overall sound quality is crap. But I've also read reviews that say the opposite so I'm torn between buying these and taking a risk or playing it safe and just going with the Bose triport In-ear headphones.

I use Shure for my in-ears. But i'm the onyl person in my band who does so, everyone else uses Westone Um1's and Um2's. But I use the Shure E2c's. Im very happy with them, but if I could, I would definitely use the Westone UM2's.

Hmm i may consider these for my next pair of earbuds after my premium ones wear out. Its a good price and from your review it sounds like they are good quality.

I wouldn't get the Bose unless you can get them really cheap, Bose products aren't worth the retail price, I'd say this would be a much safer buy, Shure has a pretty good reputation (I haven't heard these though). I'd say the best sounding IEMs you'll find for under $100 would probably be the Crossroads MylarOne X3i's, and they certainly don't lack bass (as far as IEM's go), here's a review:

all earphones mainly depends on whats your expectation, so everyone would be using earphones/headphones differently. No such thing as good or best earphones but in your opinions they're good enough for you. now thanks for looking at my review and try to stay on topic please

Little Horn · 04-23-2008, 12:56 PM

They look promising... I'm going to do some more research and I think I'll pick up a pair... Thanks for the heads up...

Ghost117 · 04-23-2008, 03:50 PM

runtohell121 · 04-23-2008, 03:52 PM

I'm sure they're much better, the Zune premium phones are only decent.
