Sound Isolating™ Earphones
Shure Sound Isolating™ Earphones, built with balanced armature speakers,
deliver a detailed soundstage free from outside noise. The powerful and stylish
Shure SE earphones come with a detachable cable, adapters, a durable carry-
ing case, and interchangeable Sound Isolating sleeves for a comfortable and
personalized fit.
Choosing a Sleeve
Select an earphone sleeve that provides the best fit and sound isolation. It
should be easy to insert, fit comfortably, 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.
Wearing the Earphones
Wear them like earplugs. A good
acoustic seal provides maximum bass.
1. Select a sleeve.
2. Twist and pull to remove. Push new
sleeve on fully. Compress foam
sleeve slightly.
3. Insert firmly into ear. Wear cable
over and behind ear. Tighten the
cable and take up slack by raising
the cable cinch.
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.
Wearing the cable over the ear and
securing it behind the head can help
keep the earphones in place during
physical activity.
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).
