Upgrade from Shure SE215 to SE535 a significant step up?

[Macintosh600]

Hi, I'm looking to upgrade from my current SE215s to the 535s and would like to know if it is worth the upgrade for a casual music listener like myself, also does anyone have suggestions for better alternatives in the same £300 price range? Regards.

As I said in the other thread, look at Sennheiser HD series.

I'd stick with the 215s, I tested the full Shure range of in-ears when I bought mine and although there is a small difference (the higher end ones tend to be a little less bassy in my opinion), I couldn't justify the higher price on what really was only a better set on paper.

Depends on the sort of music you listen to and how good your ears are.
