Shure SE530 Earphones Review


Earphones can be a lot more expensive than you music player and this exactly is the case with Shure SE530 earphones. The amount of engineering that goes into designing earphones is unbelievable and it does justify the high price tag. After all there isn’t an substitute of enjoying your favorite to the fullest with every minute details hitting your ear buds and rushing up your adrenaline levels.

Shure SE530 Earphones specifications :

  • Type : Headphone – Binaural

Shure has always net new industry standards with its earphones. The Shure SE series is based on sound isolation feature and has some good earphones under its belt. The first thing you would probably notice about them is their rather large size. The large size is due to the integration of tweeter and two woofers in each ear bud. Although large, the earphones don’t look ugly and have a shiny finish to them.

Three sets of silicone sleeves are available in the package to match your ear size. The cable measuring 18 inches is thick and does not tangle easily. If you find the cable length to be short, Shure bundles two extender cables of lengths 9 inches and 36 inches to extend the length of the cable. There is also an airplane adapter apart from regular one, a  carrying case and surprisingly an earwax cleaning pick too!

Everything else takes a back seat when you plug in the earphones to a music phone. These earphones deliver exceptional quality of sound leaving you mesmerizedre by the quality of music you have experienced before. Passive noise isolation works perfectly and they deliver deep bass without any distortion. The clarity can be experienced even at high volume without any signs of distortion. Highs and mids of these earphones will put others to shame. The sound quality justifies the high price tag.

Pros :

  • Good build quality
  • Amazing sound quality
  • Deep bass
  • Extremely comfortable
  • Good accessory bundle

Cons :

  • Large ear buds
  • Extremely expensive

Final Thoughts

The Shure SE530 offer never heard before experience but at a hefty price tag. You can hardly find anything wrong with this headset except its price. The accessory bundle with the earphones has a lot of things to offer such as an airplane adapter and the earwax cleaning pick! If you have loads of free cash to burn, get these earphones without second thoughts.

My Rating : 4/5
