Better than Meelectronics M6 Pro - Man where do I start on these. These are some quality IEM's. For me, isolation is important because that's part of the whole point of IEM's. If I just wanted quality, I could use my headphones or studio monitors. IEM's are designed to be small and lightweight. Read: portable. If I could sit in one place I'd use my studio monitors. Anyway! On we go: I first got into the IEM scene with some VSD1S's which were highly recommended by several websites and many reviews, saying they were worth way more than the asking price. I bought them, instantly didn't like them -- they seemed fatiguing to listen to, weren't very comfortable, and transmitted a lot of sound. Sitting in a library, I could still hear everything, even people whispering. Tried burning them in for 100 hours, still no better. I bought some more "isolating" IEM's -- the Meelectronics M6 Pro's, attracted by the price. I couldn't get those to seal in my ear canals very well and they were not comfortable at all. They sounded decent. But then again, what good are they if they don't isolate and aren't comfy? Enter these SE215's. First time I tried them on, they were noticeably way more comfortable than both other IEM's I'd had. Also, instantly (no burn in) they sounded way better. Other reviewers have said that the bass is "heard, not felt" -- which is true. The bass is there but not "forward" or muddy by any means. Very balanced. Highs are detailed and the imaging is fantastic. Vocals and mids are there but not prominent in any way. I like my music 'flat' and these do that wonderfully. They aren't fatiguing to listen to, and oh BOY do they isolate! In fact, that deserves a whole new paragraph. The isolation is unreal. It's like wearing earplugs, that play music. It's great. I have a video of my cousin trying out these earbuds, and I ask him, "Hey, how's the isolation? Hello? Must be good" and his face the whole time screams 'bliss' with no care in the world. He definitely did not hear me. I was on the plane, and even with the music paused, I still couldn't hear the flight attendant ask, "Chicken or beef?" These definitely are the most isolating earbuds I have ever used. The only place these MIGHT be beat is with droning noises like the jet engine on a plane, where active noise cancelling headphones might beat them. But that's because of how ANC isolates versus how these isolate. (ANC is better with constant noises like droning engine sounds, and these are better where sounds are more 'random'.) In a busy city center, or a subway, or in a loud area, for example, these are hands down superior. tl;dr: These IEM's are wonderfully comfortable (wore them on a 12 hour flight with no issue), have great sound, and isolate better than anything I've ever tried. Definitely worth the money. Review: Best bang for your buck as they are the best-sounding earphones of the Shure SE series at this price point - The best in-ear headphones that I've owned in my entire life! Period. I'm no audiophile by any stretch of the imagination - I mostly get my music from Spotify, which I listen for about 6 hours a day (I need to listen to music while I study so yea I'm not exaggerating). Sound quality: These are very balanced and neutral. Like many reviewers have noted, if you love bass-heavy, warmer sounds or other dynamic features these are not for you - these are meant to reproduce the sound as it is in an unforgiving way (although if you properly amplify them through some DACs or headphone amplifiers you can get a pretty good amount of balanced bass, if the audio source provides it). I can't comment much more on the audio quality as I'm no expert or musician/audio technician, etc. but I can say that they have a pretty good sound stage (you can really pick out details in orchestration, especially if you listen to high-quality orchestral recordings) and you get a lot of details from the music. My comparison headphones are the Sennheiser Momentum M2 and some in-ear Bose earbuds but I don't have many earphones to compare this to (I usually use headphones like Sennheiser Momentum 2.0 and Audio Technica) Comfort and durability: Very comfortable to wear and do not stick out of your ear so you might be able to sleep on them for a bit, although they eventually get uncomfortable if you sleep on them too long. The around-the-ear cable (sorry I don't know what this form factor is called) provides great support if you are on the move and these headphones will not come out, especially if you get a good seal with the proper foams, so great for working out (although careful about running in the streets with both earphones on as this will cancel out pretty much all ambient noise even at mid-volume). If you are not used to this over-the-ear hook cable It'll take you a little while to get used to putting them on quickly but once you do is second nature (you also don't have to press on the foam tips every time you put them on but it's advised if you want a perfect seal). The headphones and the cable seem very sturdy and my only durability concern is in the connector that goes into the headphones - if you try to wiggle it too much as you put the headphones on and off you can slowly wear it out and it might start failing but you'll be good if you're careful (you can always replace the cable if it breaks anyways). The one thing I wished Shure would do is to sell a good replacement cable with an in-line microphone and 3-buttons control that worked specifically for Android (I believe there's one with only one button and an in-line mic but people have reported that the mic quality is pretty bad and the cable doesn't seem as sturdy) - a lot of people sometime just like to listen to music in their phones casually and don't use fancy amps or DACs with their PCs so that kind of cable would make it more fun and easier to control music when casually listening. In conclusion these headphones will give you the best bang for your buck as they are the best-sounding earphones of the Shure SE series at this price point. If you go higher in the series you might not really appreciate the upgrade as those earphones are meant to be properly amplified (vs. your run-of-the-mill 3.5 mm jacks from integrated sound chips on portable devices) and you gotta feed them higher quality audio sources. ## Features - PRO-GRADE SOUND WITH ENHANCED BASS: Engineered for professional musicians and discerning listeners, the SE215 delivers detailed, full-range sound through a single dynamic MicroDriver.

Riley why are you being yelled at?. Earbuds are not going to solve this issue.I can say with great certainty that if you are wearing them when she screams chances are you are screaming back. Sound isolation is good but Moms are by far better.NOT A MOM FILTER. **Q: Can I use it for the gym? is it water/sweat resistant? will it stay in my ears during the workout?** A: I use mine primarily under a helmet while riding one of my motorcycles and they stay in the ear prety well. Of course you have to insert them properly and have them seal in your ears. As for the sweat while working out. I guess that depends on how much you sweat in your ears. But I am sure they will take a moderate amount sweating.Hopes this helps.Rick G **Q: this item work with xvive u4 IEM wireless system?** A: If it has a 3.5mm headphone jack, yes, it will work. **Q: I just recently lost one side of the earphones. I have the left side and the cord, is it possible for me to buy a replacement for the right side?** A: If it's covered by the warranty and you have the receipt, it can be replaced.Otherwise, you will have to pay for the replacement.But for the price... if it's >50% of the retail price, you may as well buy a newer set.When you send in the unit for repair, Shure will contact you. You can ask if you can just buy a newer set from them since the cost of the replacement won't be worth the cost.Shure may give you a discount on a newer model which may still be pricey but at least it's a discount. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic isolation, very comfortable, great sound.

I had a set of the E2c's, which were fantastic. After about 5 years of hard labor, they finally gave up the ghost, and suffered the usual death by cable rot to which that series of buds were so prone. So I took to the search for a replacement, and these were my criteria... 1. They must be in-ear style buds, with the option to switch the sleeves (The piece that goes in the ear). Also, they must include those swappable pieces. 2. They must have a good warranty of at least 2 years. 3. They must not cost more than ~100 USD. 4. They must sound great. (These are in no order of preference, and all considered equal) So with that in mind, I also need to mention that I was partial to Shure. Mostly, because the E2c's were my first real good set of earphones, and broke down all my stigmas as to "Why would anyone pay so much for headphones?" So here is my review. The Sleeves - There are 2 different types of sleeves bundled with this set; one a flexible rubber, the other a re-expandable foam. Each has three separate sizes, to help you find a good fit. I tried both. The foam sleeves feel nice, so long as you insert them like earplugs. They expand nicely to your ear canal. They offer fantastic sound isolation, and stay inside. The rubber sleeves are comfortable, but they are constantly being pulled out of your ears by the very stiff cord. I will try them again once I get the cord broken in a bit more, but for now, I'm going with the foam sleeves. The Warranty - 2 years, not bad, but my E2c's had 3. From what I hear, the cable rot issue is still going on, but I will expand on that in a minute. The cost - If you can get them for 100 USD, then do it. I think they are normally 2X that price. The Sound - At first, I was a bit worried. I was hearing some odd pops in the earphones. Pops that I shouldn't be hearing from a headset this expensive. But, that turned out to be from the player I had them plugged into. I tried a different source, and no pops. They are at least as good as my E2c's were when I first got them. There is some talk about the lows and highs and all that, and I don't know about all that. I know that I was getting some weird looks at the restaurant I was at when I was headbanging and booth-breaking (sit down dancing at my table) to the music. I listen to a lot of rock, electronica, and trip hop, and it all sounds great. Other Stuff - I mentioned the cables, and for good reason. Shure has a history of cable rot; the insulation on the wires literally rots off, and results in dead headphones. To combat that, they have added 2 features. One, an additional layer of insulation around where the wire goes over the ear (The most common place of rot). This likely extends the life of the cable, which makes it even thicker than it already is, which makes it VERY stiff. This stiffness leads to the cable not staying in place, and needing some serious breaking in, which in turn could lead to breaking the wire. So be careful, and be patient. If you use the foam sleeves, then it isn't that big of a problem. The other thing is that they made the cable able to be detached from the earpiece, which means you can replace it if it goes bad. This is nice, except that, it's proprietary. It is unlikely that Shure will still have these cables in a few years available for purchase or otherwise. So while it's a nice feature, you likely won't be able to use it for anything other than changing the color of your wires. (It would likely be a good idea to order a spare once these earbuds are discontinued). I also want to comment on the case that comes with the set. At first, I didn't like it, becasue my previous Shure's had such a nice case. It was solid, with an insert in the middle that you could wrap the cords around and place the drivers inside of. This case is soft, and has no way to manage the cables or drivers other than jsut stuffing them inside, which is what I didn't like at first. But over time, I have grown to like how much more compact it is. The soft case fits easily into my pocket, and keeps everything pretty contained (the last case bulged a lot). And I've never once had an issue where I felt they were compromised as a result. So I would say the soft case works quite well, and has a sharp looking Shure logo on it. So that's my experience with the 215's. I recommend them to anyone that knows how important a good set of headphones are, but doesn't have a lot of money to dedicate to them. ## Frequently Bought Together - Shure SE215 PRO Wired Earbuds - Professional Sound Isolating Earphones, Clear Sound & Deep Bass, Single Dynamic MicroDriver, Secure Fit in Ear Monitor, Plus Carrying Case & Fit Kit - Black (SE215-K) - Apple USB-C to 3.5 mm Headphone Jack Adapter - Apple MFi Certified 2 Pack Lightning to 3.5 mm Headphone Jack Adapter for iPhone, iPhone Aux Adapter Converter Dongle Audio Cable Compatible with iPhone 14 13 12 11 X XS 8 7 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/1200419-se215-pro-sound-isolating-wired-earbuds-black-professional-in-ear](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/1200419-se215-pro-sound-isolating-wired-earbuds-black-professional-in-ear) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-08-14*
