urBeats Headphones & iPhone

[ForceIndia]

Could have brought you some back $89 here but the h1 is hardley a decent headphone i have tried some

What you want is the h3 but then again thats compariblw to the bose

H1 is a 116i compared to the h3 M3 and thats physically trying them

Neither are as good as the new upgraded bose in ear qc20's

Depends what you compare them too

My mate runs a shop called hi end headphones he has in ear stuff that makes my shures sound weak. The sures i have are better than my bose

And if you want you can easy spend 2k on in ears but then are going to waste them if your not listening on a lossless portable player , and there goes another 2k plus

The noise cancellation is brilliant on the qc20, but the sound quality isn't amazing. It's good, but not outstanding, you pay for the noise canceling. I prefer the h1 to my bose, but it's all down to opinion.
Some folk love beats, I don't like the silly bass.
But saying the h1 aren't decent is, imo, not accurate. And there's plenty of reviews that agree that they are very good.

Well i have tried the h1 the h3 and my bose in the last 24hrs

The h1 is a sub £100 headphone and thats the sound i feel it gives

My Shure Se310 which are old are better than my bose for sound quality i agree

Sound quality is all subjective so i did say in my opinion

I would never buy a speaker , amp or headphone without demoing it myself.

Cheers mate. I don't really want earphones that hook over the ear and I can't work out whether these have to do that or not! This is a tough item to buy lol.

They do hook over the ear.

 

[eugegall]

They do hook over the ear.

Thats s**t!

The shure se 315 does not hook over the ear !
I have the older 310 version and the sound quality (again personal opinion) is superior to my bose qc20
They are comfortable and offer a fair amount of noise blocking

Again personal 1st hand experience over several years

 

[ForceIndia]

Going from sites that sell them?

And from shure website

"and over the ear configuration keeps cables out of the way."?

I can show you , they do not have to be used over the ear , swap the left and right and the cable hangs below perfectly normally below
Its exactly how i wear mine

You can do both

Fair enough, was understandably confused by the above

 

[...]

Its because how they do it is not the normal clip over the ear as some do but purely a cable routing due to the way shure exit the cable from the earbud
If you look at a picture you can kind of visualise it but swapping levft to right changes the way the cable exits from up to down

Obvious caviate is listening to something that has things said to the right and left on a stereo track , i use it watching films etc and have never found it odd but i guess if you were really anal you might pick up on something

I think it would bother me knowing it was reversed, but I'm not sure if notice if I didn't know (if that makes sense!)

@eugegall is this helpful

You can on the newer ones i think unplug the wire from the bud

You cant on the older 310 i have

If you can you could swap which wire was pluged to each bud thus having the left and right correctly

However to be sure i would need 315s in my hand

I've ordered them! They are cheap enough. I'll see what they are like. Should be here on Tuesday.

I'm sure you'll love them. Don't tug on the cable too hard

Sent them back!

There were so many issues with them. Cable way too long. Sound was average, I didnt like the right angle socket bit, they didnt stay in my ear. I could go on.

Just had some Bose Sport delivered and wow. They are fantastic. Absolutely brilliant. I think @ForceIndia recommended these right at the start.

Excellent!

I love my powerbeats, especially when running or at the gym.
