Great!.......2007-12-22
I ordered these for my husband because he travels a lot for business. He loves them. I have used them a few times and they are wonderful. The sound is superb. On airlines, you can't even hear any noise at all. It's like having a symphony inside your head.
John Nemerovski's MyMac.com Review.......2007-11-08
Shure is throwing another hat into the over-$250-super-premium-earphone arena. Summer 2006 brought us their ultra-expensive "500 series" with a price to match, reviewed here at MyMac.com. We had a few gripes in addition to the hoorays in our evaluation of this product, which has been rebranded SE530 to fill the top spot in the company's newly-introduced budget-to-pricey comprehensive SE lineup.
Artie recently reviewed SE210 and SE310 here. These models received a high rating. He is currently listening to the brand new SE110. His review will probably be posted soon after this one you are reading.
Modular components are the highlights of Shure's entire SE family. MyMac.com applauds the several different ways you can configure SE420 and its siblings. Audio delivery improves both objectively and subjectively as SE-series prices ascend. Knowing that fact, SE420 should sound r-e-a-l-l-y splendid.

SE420 by Shure is worth rating on our exclusive 20-point headphone/earphone evaluation scale:
COMFORT and FIT (6 points possible) = 6, based on variety of insertion tips included, and on nicely-sized driver shells that conform beautifully to the ear. This is the exact same score we gave to Shure's "500" series 'phones last year.
AUDIO QUALITY and SOUND ISOLATION (6 points possible) = 4.5, with high marks for isolation and clarity, but a reduction based on audio balance heavily weighted toward the midrange, with noticeable lack of a powerful bass. See company explanation below.
ACCESSORIES, CASE, and MANUAL (4 points possible) = 3, thanks to thoughtful modular components, and a thorough English/Spanish/French-language manual, but a case that is way too small to contain SE420 with all its accessories. For $400, two companion cases should be included, since users typically won't carry every possible attachment.
CONSTRUCTION and DESIGN (4 points possible) = 4, with plenty of attention to detail and quality in every aspect.
TOTAL = 17.5, for 4 out of 5 recommendation by MyMac.com.

We received the following audio-balance explanation by Matt Engstrom, Category Manager, Listening Products, Shure, Inc.
"Generally speaking, the overall frequency extension increases as you move up the line from the SE110 to the SE530, and the path from lows to highs has a different shape as well so that each earphone has its own characteristics. The SE420 has a very similar mid and high frequency response to the SE310 but leans more toward the SE530 for lower frequencies. The end result is a very different balance from the SE530. The SE530 has an extended low and high frequency response versus the SE420, which has a more even overall tonal balance (as does the SE310). This means that the SE420 tends to bring out more mid-range details like vocals and electric guitar, whereas the SE530 tends to bring out deep undertones in music and also sounds such as fingers moving on acoustic guitars and breaths between words while singing."
Translation by Nemo: SE420 has a lot of punch within the audio spectrum where most music is heard. For $400 you get brilliant clarity throughout this region, without potential aberration from cranium-splitting highs or bowel-churning lows. A lot of money buys a lot of sound delivered to your sonic sweet spot.

We've raved over super-premium in-ear headphones by Etymotic Research and Ultimate Ears here and here. Either of these 'phones offers outstanding audio for listeners with outstandingly deep pockets and golden ears. Shure's SE420 is another candidate for this class of music aficionado.

Best By Far.......2007-10-26
The short and sweet of it is that I have owned Shure E2C's, Bose TriPort, Bose QC2's, and Shure E4C's. The newer SE420's give you deep, rich sound without overwhelming base or blocking out the highs. Search around for an authorized dealer to get the best rate and you can snag an authentic pair for about $250...much lower than the $400 retail on Shure's site. The combination of the two separate TrueAcoustic speakers for distinction and clarity are unparalleled. Needless to say, all of my other aforementioned ear and headphones are all now on eBay!

Extrememly happy with these in ears.......2007-06-13
The Shure se310's are far and away the best in ear headphones I've ever owned. All the high's mid's and low's of pretty much every music genre come through as if I'm sitting in on a recording session or hearing the music live all around me, which is exactly the music experience I wanted and expected. If you have never owned a pair of Shure in ears and are standing on the fence, then now is probably the best time to jump on the bandwagon. If you are updating an old pair of ec4's or lower grade Shure's than this is what you are looking for. Shure in ears are for those music buffs and audiophiles who want to have the most pure experience with their tunes as possible without actually hearing it live. Experiencing this level of quality with earphones for the first time is quite the experience as the difference between the high end phones and the basic consumer phones is quite substantial. I'm not a paid advertiser or anything like that. I just graduated from college and am taking advantage of my graduation money, hehe. Lucky for me, I managed to find these on Amazon while TigerDirect was having a huge sell and nabbed them for 138 bucks instead of the normal 250. Great deal! If money is an issue at 250 then I suggest going with the se210's or go even cheaper with the v-moda vibe in ears. Both of those sets are great as well in the 100 - 150 dollar range, and these were the sets I was originally looking at until I ran into these babies as an even lower price than the se210's because of the sale. Couldn't believe my eyes! And now my ears are rejoicing! If you can afford it these are still a great buy at $250. You really can't go wrong with Shure. They consistently put out a high quality line of products. As you might have already noticed I'm a fan of my recent purchase.
I've read some professional reviews about this set and a couple of them have mentioned how they were dissapointed with the bass response, but with my experience I can't help but question their professional reviewer status. The bass response is perfect for me. You just have to get the right fit, which shouldn't be a problem with the many different types and sizes of in ear fixtures that come with the set. For me, the foam fixtures already on the phones out of the package were the right fit.
I used to play in a nationally renowned touring and recording rock band so music is 'kind of a big deal' to me. This is as close as you'll get to having a live music experience in your home, at the gym, or jogging in the park.
The sound isolation is also a huge plus, and it works like a dream. I live in an apartment right across the street from an industrial zone with tons of noise coming into my place at all times of the day and night. It is right next to a busy road, and my wife is a dancer. She plays her own music on her stereo quite loud to choreograph and practice routines all the time. Suffice it to say I don't have a very peaceful environment at home. So to get away sometimes I like to put on some headphones and just zone out. All that noise is completely gone with these bad boys on, and the volume level does not need to be loud at all to drown all that outside clutter out, so you save your hearing from being damaged by not having to turn the volume way up to drown out all that exterior mess.
Hope this review has been helpful to you.
