HOLY SH*T BALLS BATMAN!!!
By Michael from San Francisco on October 18, 2011

By far the BEST headphones I've ever purchased in my life! I'll never buy anything other that SHURE!
Stylish as FAWK! Forget Beatz By whats his face! Forget Bose! Forget SONY!
These look amazing and people stare at them with the, "WTF are those" eyes! When they ask, "What they are?", I say, "delicious." When they ask where they can get them, I say, "God only made one."
The sound quality is almost indescribable. When I wear these IEMs, it's as if I'm thinking music. The iPhone cord only comes in black, which is not mentioned on the description of this product; but it's ALL GOOD! It works perfectly and the cord feels more durable than stock iPhone headphones. If I were to purchase these again, I'd get the smoke black ones.
Pros:
-Style
-Comfort
-Quality
-Durability
-iPhone adapter is sturdy and and work PERFECT!
-Doesn't fall out of the ear.I would recommend this item to a friend.
great performance, but came with black line and control
By Young Kim from New York, NY on August 25, 2011

Performance of this product is great. I compared to Klipsch s4 and SE215 has even better quality of the sound. I feel little pain after wearing it more than couple of hours but will be used to it. However, I expected to receive clear one, but 3 button control and line is black. I thought that they sent me wrong one but I realized there is no clear control button from the website.
Pros:
sound quality is greatCons:
There is no information that the mic line is black, not clear. I would recommend this item to a friend.
Merchant Response:
Hi Young,
Yes, the iPhone cable only comes in black.
Thank you!Westones are a much better earphone than Shure
By David from Portland, OR on August 9, 2011

Sorry for the self-serving title, but that is how I feel about these earphones. I have been an UM1 owner for about 3-4 years and when those finally died, I wanted a set of earphones that also worked with my iPhone. On paper, these looked pretty good and there were lots of positive reviews about the Shure SE215i. However, IMHO, those reviewers are obviously not aware of the Westone UM1 or 2 earphones. First of all, they are much bigger than the Westones, perhaps not a problem for some, but when you get used to the lightweight of the Westones, the Shures are just not as comfortable. Second issue is the cabling. The Shures have a "bendable" cable that is meant to be form-fit over the back of your ear. I thought they were bulky and uncomfortable, especially when compared to the soft, flexibly and very lightweight cables on the Westones. I sent these back the day after I got them and was got my UM1 earphones repaired by Westone for $30. If and when Westone comes out with an iPhone compatible earphone, I will be buying it.
Pros:
Sound quality was goodCons:
Earphones were too big, too heavy. Cable was uncomfortable and heavy and too long.

Great hadphones
By Stack from New York on July 28, 2011

The sound quality you get from these headphones is very good, they provide crystal clear sound that sounds like a live concert. Personally I love bass so there could be a little deeper sounding bass but overall they sound great!!
Pros:
Very clear sound, you can hear each individual instrument.Cons:
I wish the ipod cable with the buttons was clear like the standard cable.I would recommend this item to a friend.
