Shure SE115m+ Sound Isolating Headset with Remote and Mic
Worth the Wait
Written by DM from Spring
Oct 27, 2009
I have been using a pair of Shure 420's for 2 years now and have been pleased. With the new iTouch I needed the functionality of the in line controller. I tried the Belkin adapter but the volume controls did not always work correctly and the sound "felt dampened". I am not an audiophyle and I do have moderate high frequency hearing loss. However whatever my perception, the SE 115m+ earphones sound crisper and have more bass. They have more volume that the Apple in-ear earphones and sound far better. The in-line controller is solid and fully enclosed on the R ear piece and the buttons have a deliberate click with good tactile feedback. Voice recordings thru the mic also seem to have clearer sound than that of Apple's and pick-up less background noise. The cords have less thickness than the 420's and are one piece (no in-line break apart connectors). Very pleased with this BUY. …More

Shure SE115m+ Sound Isolating Headset with Remote and Mic
strong contenders optimized for ipod
Written by GS from New York
Oct 28, 2009
A nice set of headphones, with a much heavier bass response compared to the Shure 310s and Etymotic hf2s they replaced. The volume control does NOT function with iphone 3G, but the mic button does work just like the included iPhone headset. Compared to the Shure SE310s these were much bass heavier, but gave up some of the clarity and articulation on the high end. If you're a fan of bass heavy music, these are fantastic. If you're listening to jazz or vocal, less great. They do a better job of noise isolation than the hf2, and lack the annoying cord noise. Cleaner than the rat's nest of cords when using the Shure MPA. Mic is typical Shure outstanding. Would be 5 stars but for the lack of volume control. …More

Shure SE115m+ Sound Isolating Headset with Remote and Mic
Great step up from the default headset
Written by SB from New York
Nov 8, 2009
I am no audiophile, but I do find the headset bundled with my iPhone 3G lacking in sound and quality. After going through 2 default headphones in 1.5 years of iPhone 3G ownership, I decided to try the Shure SE115m+. This is my first in-ear cans. This one has more favorable reviews than the Apple in-ear phones. Here are my impressions-
FIT/COMFORT- The sound from any in-ear phones depends on its fit inside your ear. It needs to form a tight seal for any bass reproduction. These phones come with 2 sets of in-ear plugs (different materials) in 3 sizes. I switched the default foam (med) size to the small foam size and needed to gently push the phones in for a tight seal. Quite comfortable.
SOUND- Amazing sound. Flat frequency response (which is a sign of good quality drivers inside). I listen mostly to alternative rock and every sound was crystal clear. The quality is very easily comparable to my Bose QC3 over ear noise-canceling phones (~$300). This leaves every other headphone (other than the Bose QC3) in the dust.
SOUND ISOLATION- Very good isolation, also approaching the active cancelation of the Bose QC3. The New York City subway screeching into the station was barely noticeable! To hear good sound without the 'rubbing' noise of the cord, you have to loop the wire over and behind your ear instead of hanging straight down.
DESIGN- This is where I wish it would have been a little bit better. Compared to the Apple cans, the mic and volume control are rather big. It hangs just under my jaw when the wire is looped over my ear. I wish it were smaller. Also the volume control doesn't work on the iPhone 3G which is a shame, but that is Apple's fault, not Shures. The button can be used to pause or skip just like the Apple phones. The cord material seems robust and seems like it can withstand heavy use. The overall design is quite understated which I like. The length is ideal so that my iPhone can be kept in the front or back pocket of my jeans without excess wire. The phones come with a carrying case. If they made the case a bit bigger, it could also fit my iPhone.
OVERALL- Great sound, good design. I think it is worth $120. You can only get it from the Apple store right now. The price may be lower when it reaches Amazon or something next year. …More6 of 6 people found this useful

Shure SE115m+ Sound Isolating Headset with Remote and Mic
Very Disappointing
Written by CB from Selma
Nov 11, 2009
I originally bought these because of Shure's reputation of quality sound (it's my 4th pair of Shures).I've owned the Klipsch iPhone earbuds and wanted completely satisfied with them.
1) Location of the activator buttons; totally useless! It looks/feels like you're playing with your face! Not to mention you have that thing bouncing off your cheek when working out.
2) I don't know what it is but the bass on these are very weak! When I went back to the Klipsch's; well, let's just say I REALLY appreciate the Klipsch sound even more!
3) The multiple ear pieces make these the most conforming and comfortable buds but what's the use if the sound isn't very good.
I admit, I didn't buy these to wear in my ears full-time. I bought them to work out on the off chance I get a phone call so no feedback on voice quality. …More5 of 6 people found this useful

I just purchased these for use with my iPhone 3G. I can confirm that the volume controls on the headset do NOT work. The center button does function like the mic button on the iPhone's included earbuds to answer/end calls and advance/rewind music with various combinations of clicks. But the volume controls do not seem to function at all, at least on the iPhone 3G. …More

They do not have to be worn over-ear, however, Shure suggests that you do that to help eliminate micro-phonics ( the rubbing noise caused in most headphones by the cord rubbing). I personally have worn shure headphones in the regular way with no problems …More
