Advantages: Excellet Sound Quality and many attachments to ensure they fit all ear types

Disadvantages: None that I can find

I have owned two pairs of Shure headphones now and would never look anywhere else.

The reason for replacing my original Shure headphones was due to the fact I lost one of the rubber parts and realised that a new set of headphones was more cost effective than hunting out a part.

For all iPod owners, throw away those horrible tinny white headphones! Pick up a pair of Shure SE110 headphones and you will never look back.

The build quality is 2nd to none and even though I throw them in my bag with little care they still hold up to all the travelling I do. I enjoy the fact these headphones actually block out the outside world but do not bleed sound like other headphones. Sitting on a train knowing you're not disturbing anyone else while listening to your music at any volume is very pleasing.

The headphones do improve your music listening but I have found in some cases that they do highlight poorly encoded mp3 files - which led me to re-recording a lot of my music. It's not really the headphones fault but because due to their superior sound quality, they highlight my rubbish recording of a CD.

When I first swapped to a set of Shure headphones I ended up hearing things in songs I had never been able to distinguish. It was like listening to some music all over again.
Some people I have read complain about lack of base but for me this isn't much of an issue. I find most in-ear headphones lack the base when compared to closed ear headphones.

These headphones come with a nice case to keep them in good condition and every sized attachment to allow them to fit any ear size/type.

I am happy to say Shure have done away with the silly mesh ear wax protectors (These always used to come off when cleaning and due to their small size I always ended up losing them) and provided you with a tool to clear out any gunk that has built up. As horrible as it sounds, about cleaning ear wax, it does make a massive difference if anything builds up in the channel.

I would recommend these headphones to anyone and if you hunt around you can pick up a bargain.

Summary: High Sound quality at a low price and a massive improvement over mp3 supplied headphones.
