Sennheiser Vs Shure In Ear Headphones

I love these headphones. As stated in the title, I replaced my Shure SE215 in-ear monitors with these. I used Shure IEM's for traveling because of the high sound isolation provided by the triple flange ear tips. I decided to go a different direction with these because all my other headphones are Sony and I've always preferred the sound of Sony. I use Sony IEMs and Sony over-ear headphones for producing, mixing, and mastering music to give you an idea of my sound preference and experience with critical listening. The noise cancellation in the WI-1000XM2 is very comparable to the sound isolation of the Shure's. I would say with the proper fit, the noise cancellation is better, unquestionably in the low frequencies. The sound of the WI-1000XM2 is excellent. Slightly bright but not overbearing and certainly not lacking in bass. Detailed, clear, and balanced. I've already used them for traveling and love them, especially on planes. This is my first neckband headphone and it doesn't bother me. I might even say I prefer it as they can remain around my neck without constant stowing. Also, the cords to the earpieces are short won't tangle :) The build quality is excellent. I highly recommend them!

I play drums professionally and own all kinds of headphones, including three different types of Shure's in-ear headphones (ranging from $100 to $400 a pair). All things considered, I prefer to play with Shure's in-ear headphones and I think these are an excellent choice. Don't let the fact that they're not as expensive as the others make you think that they're not excellent equipment. These headphones sound excellent and the isolation is top-quality. I sometimes listen to mixes with these, though I generally go with studio monitors. For gigs and rehearsing, these sound fantastic. They're also great for in the office; you can hardly hear a thing with these on. They're super-comfortable and I can wear them for hours without fatigue. I prefer to wear these and other in-ear buds while recording because they don't bleed a click track or anything else into the mics.

Bought these to replace a worn out pair for my Shure in ear headphones. Perfect replacement for the ones that originally came with my headphones when purchased new.

These are the sleeves that work for me with my Shure SE210 in ear headphones. The old ones got worn out (one flange separated) after more than a year of daily use. A good way to prolong the life of a great set of 'phones.

I have owned the Shure SE425 in-ear headphones and the SE535 for some time now. I love the clear and non-bassy reproduction of the Shure SE425, on my iPhone 6s especially in conjunction with the in-line remote/mic cable. In conjunction with the Bluetooth 5.0 Communication Cable, the bass is much more pronounced, almost too much for me! The Shure SE535 headphones sounds warmer, the frequency response may score better in tests, but in conjunction with my iPhone, I prefer the SE425. However, things are different when pairing my Android phone with a DAC headphone amplifier: Here, the Shure SE535 headphones clearly show their strengths compared to the SE425.

I currently own several pairs of headphones (2 Sennheiser, 2 AKG, 1 Grado) and that doesn't include in-ear/earbuds. The ATH-M50x's are my favorite! Great sound, comfortable & easy to drive. I like that they come with 3 different cable lengths. They are over ear, meaning a little bigger, but that helps seal out external sounds. Highly recommended!

I was searching for NC over ear headphones because I work in noisy environment. Was choosing between XM4 and Sennheiser PXC 550 II...Sony sounds better than any other headphones, and they are loud. But Sennheiser felt a bit more comfortable but not loud enough and sound is just not what it should be. I just wish Sony wouldnt make touch control, physical buttons would be much better.

Unlike other ear pads that I was considering for my Sennheiser HD 280 Headphones, these Auray ear pads were fairly easy to install since the material that attaches to the headphone is a little stretchy. The stock ear pads from Sennheiser are probably more difficult to install since they are less stretchy. The leather seems to be of good quality and feels good. The level of sound isolation is at least as good as the original ear pads.

My first pair of Sennheiser Headphones and I REALLY like them. Sound is excellent and the around the ear style cups close outside sound VERY well.

Very nice over the ear headphones. I’m still learning how to use them, but so far, I really like them!
