Product Description
Pure audio precision--the SE530 uses Triple TruAcoustic MicroSpeakers to create an expansive sound stage. A dedicated tweeter ensures that highs and mids are incredibly accurate and detailed, while dedicated dual woofers provide balanced, full-bodied bass. The Push-To-Hear Control (included with the SE530PTH) adjusts levels of external sound for maximum intelligibility.

Special Features
The SE530 and SE530PTH mark the bridge from the classic E Series line, to the new line of Sound Isolating Earphones from Shure (SE Models). Evolved from personal monitor technology road-tested by pro musicians and fine-tuned by Shure engineers, the SE530PTH and SE530 earphones deliver unparalleled acoustic accuracy. Triple TruAcoustic MicroSpeakers, one tweeter and dual woofers, deliver an expansive sound stage with full-bodied bass-for an auditory experience rivaled only by live performances.
Comment: I spent a lot of money on these ($350+) and treated them with kid gloves, yet the wire wore down and broke at the ear bud connection point. they are out of warranty now and cost to repair is $145.
Is it worth paying this and potentially have the same thing happen again in such a short time. Very disappointed in the return on investment.
Great product but will buy a better value pair next time

Summary: Great sound but fragile 2010-06-23
Comment: Love these things but the wires suck. They're too big and heavy and after a while the inevitable fraying from the earbuds and middle connector will happen and you'll have to send them back to Shure for their cold and expensive service dept to sort out. For $500 I expect better. Oh - the service fee - $145. There's a high price for audio perfection.

Summary: Shure SE530 - Great Fit and Sound 2010-06-19
Comment: I had shure before (less expensive models) and the sound isolation and fit were OK but with the 530 the fit is excellent and easy to insert - this improved sound isolation. I now ear sounds I had not heard with the others and the volume on my iphone is kept to a minimum. I also own a B&O model which I use for hands free calling but I have to turn the volume way up in order to listen to music in the mall or at the gym
Some pertinent facts about me - I am not a sound expert - just someone who likes to listen to music. I am also over 50 with a little hearing loss and tinnitus.
Highly recommend

Comment: Love these headphones. The only down side is that they have to be in your ears perfectly to get the bass and they are not easy to put in and take out. May want to consider getting the push to hear version so you can talk to people when they come to your desk without taking the earphones out.
