Like other reviewers have said, these are seriously lacking in bass. Even on classical recordings I found myself reaching for aftermarket software EQ in order to get a good amount of bass response. However, after making that adjustment, these are some fantastic in-ears. There is a night and day difference between these and the SE 215. These seem to be designed with detail and separation in mind and it's impossible to not notice the difference. This translates to more accurate monitoring, and a clearer picture for a live mix, where something like a 215 would be a harsh mess. As long as you don't need the bass response (and most in ear mixes don't) then these are a serious value and upgrade pick over standard offerings. They are built much better than the 215 as well; you can tell just holding both in your had. I've had 215s fall apart after about 2 years worth of use; I don't see that ever happening with these. Overall they seem to be purpose built for monitoring. Drummers will love them for recording sessions over traditional headphones, as they don't wear you out and feel more natural. Casual use will take some getting used to, or some kind of bass boost or eq on your listening setup. If your current in-ears don't seem to be doing the job, these are likely the cure for that.
