Shure SE210

just purchased from newegg as they were discounted, and for the namebrand, thought it's reputation would continue to precede itself.  the selection of in-ear buds included with the purchase was varied and ample to gain a comfortable fit.

The outside noise isolating ability of the  210's are its main quality. listening to the kinks destroyer, treble was muddled, with the opening drum set not as revealing and clear as stock ipod headphones. bass was ample during the kaiser chiefs never miss a beat, but midrange left a bit to be desired. as for the se210's, i learned theres no such thing as a shure bet. now considering beyerdynamic's dtx 80 set.
