INCREDIBLE! January 8, 2009
I purchased these for use with my Apple Macbook Pro laptop. I will say in one word - AMAZING!
These noise isolation earplugs - ISOLATE. They seem as effective as the foam earplugs I used to wear at a large manufacturing facility where I worked. I mean they seal up TIGHT and cut HUGE decibels of outside noise.
As far as sound - there seems to be any number of "Audiophiles" in this world - each with their own opions of all earphones - past, present, and future. I am not an "Audiophile". I am a geek - a computer user - who enjoys listening to MP3's, or perhaps something from iTunes. I might decide to watch a DVD movie, or play (HORRORS!) a computer game.
Do you know what?
These ear phones are MOST EXCELLENT for any or all of these things.
Treble is clear and crisp - rings like a bell. Bass is deep and vibrant. At 1/2 volume on my Macbook Pro - I could FEEL the sound literally in my bones, all the way to my feet. People who have said you need a 2 or 3 driver earphone to deliver good Bass response are out of their minds! These sound better than the 12 inch Cerwin Vegas I have hooked up to my Mitsubishi big screen - in terms of Bass response. I would dare say you would have to have at least a $2000 set of home stereo speakers to equal the sound output and quality of these inexpensive headphones.
They are THAT GOOD.
If you want to pay more for earphones - by all means do so. If you have some type of hyper sonic hearing and are playing with uber-super- duper sampled audio - and wish to hear the fly landing on the left cymbal during William Tells overture - perhaps something MAYBE will deliver SLIGHTLY more response for you delicate audio orifice.
But for the rest of us - who listen to MP3 - watch DVD movies - and play games - THESE ARE ABSOLUTELY OUTSTANDING. I mean they are MAC DADDY - MONSTER - ear phones.
I have NO COMPLAINTS whatsoever.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
Great noise isolating earphone for an amazing price December 29, 2008
Electronica Direct had the best price for the Shure earphones. The product was brand new in the original package completely sealed. The quality of the earphones is amazing. When I use it with my ipod, the listening experience is much better than when I listen with the original ipod earphones. And the noise cancellation features works great in crowded loud places. The only bad thing was the time USPS took to deliver this product.
Very Clean Audio October 28, 2008

I did a lot of research leading up to my purchase of the Shure SE310's. I had high hopes when I listened to them for the first time. But they seemed to be lacking in the bass department. Other than that they had really clean audio and sounded spectacular. Upon researching why they lacked bass, I discovered many peoples' claim of a break in period before the earbuds got loosened up and provided more bass. And over time I have noticed this to be true to a certain extent. I had an old pair of $40 Sony sound isolating earbuds which had a ton of bass, and when I first listened to the Shure's I thought they sounded weak, but now after listening to the SE310's for about a month, I can say they definitely sound better than the Sony's. Though the cheaper Sony's have a little more bass, it sounds boomy and tends to cover over the detail of other instruments, whereas the Shure's are crystal clear and the bass is very defined. One of the best things about the SE310's is their ability to block out external sound. I'm a college student and at one of our basketball games I decided to take my earbuds and see how well they blocked out sound. It was just before the game with the entire gymnasium going nuts and the band playing very loudly. I put the earbuds in and I could still comfortably listen at the levels I normally listen to, which isn't very loud by any means (I value my hearing. I have my Creative Zen Vision:M volume at 10 out of 25). They also work great when I'm trying to get work done and lots of things are going on around me. Very often I can be in my room with these things in my ears and people will come in and talk to me and I won't hear them at all. That's how good they work. Obviously it is very important that you find the right earpieces that give a good seal in your ear. I would recommend these to anyone who wants very high audio clarity. Though I would prefer a little bit more bass at lower volumes, when you turn them up they really produce. And I can't complain too much because they are meant to have a flat frequency response, so your best bet is to raise your EQ's lower frequencies a little bit and turn on the bass boost (assuming your mp3 player or sound source has these options). They come with a semi-hard zipper case to store them in as well as multiple sets of ear pieces and a wax cleaning tool. They are well worth the price tag, and I would gladly recommend them to anyone.
