ooooh, shiny new Shures
Had the 6th mid-range pair of earbuds crap out on me in the same way (broken cable near the earbud). Fortunately, they all broke inside the warranty period, so just got swapped/refunded.
Just used the latest refund to get a set of Shure 425s (as they have removable cables) which Amazon were selling at 40% off.
They’re lovely. That is all.
40% Off shure IEMs? thanks for the heads up 
Jesus that’s an expensive pair of in-ears!
(I hoped this thread was about carts…

Had them for donkeys - they’re nice too.
I had the lowly se215’s and thought those were amazing. 425’s must be heavenly 
I have a pair of 425’s, they are fantastic. Be careful walking around with them, they isolate extremely well and I’ve nearly been hit by cars a few times…
Uh those were 40% off and you didn’t tell us? Shame… I would have picked them up on the spot.
Sorry … stumbled across 'em on Amazon, should’ve thought to share the wealth
Aye, it’s odd DJing with them in …makes me feel a little distant from the audience.
I spent about £60 a couple of times on Etymotic ER6is which broke, then swapped the last broken pair under warranty for jays d-jays + £20 or so, repeated the ‘broken wire’ debacle a few times, swapped the last broken pair under warranty for jays q-jays +£20 or so, had them break, claimed on the warranty, and amazon refunded me as they don’t stock the q-jays anymore. I’ve spent about £60 more on the se425s with the hope that the detachable wire will mean that as/when the cable breaks I only have to swap that portion out, rather than buying a whole new set of phones.
I’m hard on gear …
