Share E5 IEM - wires finally broke

[shacky]

the cabling on my beloved E5's has finally given out. It looks like Shure no longer retires but offers upgrade to 535 for $240.

Does anyon know of service source that would retire my E5's?

Received my 535 upgrade today. I first put them in with tips shipped and was disappointed in bass. Then put my usual black foamies. Ah! There's the Shure bass I like!

And more detail and extension than my E5's.

Lots of listening to be done but I think I'm going to like these!

Thanks! Kinda glad I went 535 route. Sound is more advanced than E5

Glad you like them
If you ever get lots of money - try the 846 - even more wow!

Though I m missing the bass slam of E5

I moved up to large black foamies. Seemed the medium I used with my E5's didn't seal as well. Bass got better. Will have to see how comfortable this is over time.

Also seem to do better with hi vs lo gain on my amp.

I order Westone fit kit. I'm very impressed. Thought the longer foam tips would improve SQ but it's worse. But the regular size grey foam (black code size) seem perfect!!!
