Sound Isolating™
Earphones
Shure Sound Isolating™ Earphones, deliver a detailed
soundstage free from outside noise. The powerful and
stylish Shure SE earphones come with a detachable
cable, adapters, a durable carrying case, and inter-
changeable Sound Isolating sleeves for a comfortable
and personalized fit.
Detachable Cable
You may need to detach the cable from the earphones
to attach optional components or to replace the cable
if it becomes damaged. To prevent accidental separa-
tion, the connector has a snug fit. Take special care to
prevent damage to the earphone and connector.
• Do not use pliers or other tools.
• Grasp the connector and the earphone as close as
possible to where they join.
• Pull straight apart—do not twist. Cable is a snap fit,
not threaded.
Note:
If you pull at an angle, the connector will not
detach.
• Do not pull on the cable or put any pressure on the
earphone nozzle.
• Listen for a click when connecting.
• When reattaching the cable, match the "L" and "R"
markings. For clear cables and earphones, match
the color dots (Red=Right, Blue=Left).
Inserting the Earphones
Insert the earphones so they form a tight seal. The fit of
the earphone can greatly affect sound quality.
Important:
If there seems to be a lack of low frequency
response (bass), this means that the earphone sleeve
is not forming a tight seal. Gently push the earphone
deeper into the ear canal or try a different sleeve.
Warning:
Do not push the earphone sleeve beyond the
ear canal opening.
Choosing a Sleeve
Select an earphone sleeve that provides the best fit
and sound isolation. It should be easy to insert, fit com-
fortably, and easy to remove.
Soft Flex Sleeves:
In small,
medium, and large sizes.
Made from pliable rubber.
Soft Foam Sleeves:
Compress the foam sleeve
between your fingers and
insert into the ear canal.
Hold in place for about ten
seconds while the foam
expands.
Triple-Flange Sleeves:
If
desired, use scissors to trim
the stem on the sleeve.
Changing Sleeves
• Twist and pull to remove the sleeve from the nozzle.
• Slide on a new sleeve so that it completely covers
the barb and the nozzle.
Caution:
If the barb or any of the nozzle is exposed,
the sleeve is not properly installed. Replace sleeves if
they do not tightly grip the nozzle. To ensure proper fit
and performance, use only sleeves supplied by Shure
(unless using custom molded sleeves).
Using the Remote
Use the remote to control compatible media phone
players.
