Recently I ordered a pair of Shure SE215 in ears on ebay. At least I thought they were Shure SE215s. It turns out they are fakes. After I received them I asked a friend if I could borrow his real se215s and I compared them. Yep... they were fake. In this video I compare a real set of Shure SE215 and Fake Shure SE215 in ears and point out the things that make them fake.

Hi Kennis, Good video indeed. Thank you. I just bought the 215's and I use them with my Shure Ear monitor. 2 Question I'd like to ask if you don't min. 1. is Do the 525's blow the 215's away. I mean they are 5 times the price.. Is it night and day. Also, Did you have the ear piece custom fit or do you use them as they are. I assume you are using them for an ear monitor as well. Please let me know. Thanks, Tom in NYC

I think what gave it away for me instantly is the perceived craftsmanship, even without knowledge of how the drivers look. The inseam where the, I’m guessing two piece, housing comes together, on the real one is extremely clean cut and well fitted while the fake looks like it’s poorly cut. It probably cost shure a ton of money to get the molds right for that housing and it’s most definitely impossible to replicate (for the sake of selling fakes, it’s gotta be cheap)

I have the se215 limited edition blue that I purchased new from a major retailer when they first came out. The only thing I’d note is that the blue/red dots are not on them but are otherwise like the clear ones you’ve shown. The 535 I have also include the red/blue dots.

I have the genuine black/dark-tinted ones and they don't have a dot painted on either. They have a recessed hole on the IEM shell for the dot, and a L/R cast label, but no paint dot. I bought them from a genuine distributor and have owned them about 10 years - they've got a lot of use and performed great, so I'm of no doubt they're genuine.

Hey Kennis, thanks for your video, it helped me confirmed my amazon situation! Believe it or not, I bought manufacturer refurbished SE215 on Amazon, and they're just like yours, they took over a month to arrive and thankfully I was refunded by amazon before I received them as I figured they were lost in the post. Upon a very quick inspection, they are faaaake, your video confirmed it. Thankfully, the price small difference between the genuine and the refurbished in the UK was so close that being refunded the money frees me up to buy them again but genuine. :-)

My Shure SE215 is half priced. But it has clear speaker and red wire. It's quite flimsy, it doesn't have any red/blue dots, and the pouch is not completely ovale. It sure doesn't sound like $10 earphone or something. Does it means I have a fake ones but with better quality than it shown in the video? Also, do you find any difference between the fake and real ear buds that're included inside as a set? Can we hear the difference in sound if you put it up to your speaker?

Amazon is an authorized seller of Shure, I bought my SE215 special edition blue and SE846 clear sold from Amazon, and they are real. When you check out at Amazon you have to make sure they are "sold by" Amazon for something like that.

I just purchased the Red special edition ones used and luckily used Paypal. After having them for a week one of them separated in half (the whole casing). I sent it to Shure and they wrote me back and told me it was a fake. The seller who himself was probably scammed denies this and actually tried to blame me for buying a fake pair and swapping them with his fake "great pair" he sent me. I am no longer going to buy used especially for Shure considering all the copying that went on. The thing was that the fake one sounded decent, but I can't wait to hear what the real thing sounds like now and will just buy from a dealer next.

Excellent demonstration of fake vs Real deal. Although most audiophiles that would buy these expensive earphones would probably tell if they were inferior quality, a novice would just accept the fake as ok. Certainly, putting these in your ear after using low quality drivers like Apple earbuds or Samsung in-ear phones, is night and day. Thanks for an excellent comparison that helps to defeat the idiots that try to rip us off. Further, buying on Amazon or through SweetWater is certainly the way to go, as Ebay allows fakes for just about everything Pro-Audio.

Sorry to say that some your conclusions are probably wrong. But I do agree that the blue ones you show in the videos are definitely fake. I just purchased one blue pair from an official authorized dealer in Australia. The blue ones don't have the red&blue dots (personally I guess maybe only clear ones have those red&blue dots). Also there's a tiny gap in the connection point between the cable and the unit (you can check the sample pics of the blue ones on Shure website, clearly you can see a tiny gap). I agree with the comments you made on the driver and wire inside the unit: the drivers can't be red and the wires inside are red. Thanks for your video anyway. Just remember to be more scientific when you make a comparison next time. All the best.

Also the translucent black version doesnt have the red and blue dots as well. Those dots are only present in transparent version of SE215. Rest of your claims are true. Thanks for sharing and if possible please review sound difference between 535 and 846.

Additionally, "I put the earbuds in to see a difference, one fake in left ear, real in right, switched, both real, both fake, and could definitely tell a difference between the two." That may be true, but it may include bias because it includes knowledge of which bud is real/fake beforehand, so a more accurate way to discuss the info would be to blindfold a subject and put the earbuds in, randomly. Have them grade the quality of the earbuds in each ear and repeat this multiple times, preferably for 3+ subjects. Then tell us how many times the high/low quality grade matched that of the real/fake buds. It may not be a quantitative result, but it would remove the bias when you know you're putting the real/fake buds in.

Not sure if they are fake at this point as these ones were produced in China for the Eastern Market and not the western market(I live in Malaysia) is it normal for the painted shure logo on the earphone to fade away due to sweat? Because honestly, I'm not sure at this point on whether mine are real or not. The speakers do not have a red band around them however.

I wouldn't be surprised if the fakes at least last longer than the real one. Having owned more than 10 different cheap and expensive musician level in ears, SE215 definitely have the most fragile design. Mousture WILL get into swiwel type cable connection and at some point you have cleaned them so much that they get a lose connection. Also spinning the cable around will wear out the joint eventually. I think we have had 5 or 6 pairs of these in one of my bands and none of them lasted a year.

Amazon was selling a pair of 535's for the same price as the Shure website so I looked into it further. Shipment would take 3 weeks. The store said "Shure" but the seller was actually listed "DesirePro." That seller sold everything from Costco's Kirkland brand vitamins to lego sets. It seems like another Chinese counterfeiter.

I’ve heard people getting fake pairs of SE215 and SE535 but never SE846. Just gifted 846 for yesterday’s Mother’s Day so I’m bit concerned.

I have fake shure se215, blue color, and they do not have the red band, they have the dot too but its not red its just moulded in plastic, the gold ring sits flush with the earbud too But the wire does not fit so well, there is some gap between and it rotates quite freely. The biggest difference is quality, they dont even sound like $10 earphones, they are much worse, my apple earpods are so much better. Its very difficult to check which is real and which is fake, there are big companies dedicated to the job of making fake items as close to real as possible. They check all these videos etc and recommended changes to the fake’s factory.

BRUHItsABunny comaring with the SE535 , the SE846 has quite a lot bass. But its well balanced and you hear a lot of defenition. Very clear sounding. Unfortunately a lot of tracks wont sound good anymore, so i suggest using the highest possible audio quality available. Also play with volume,because some tracks are so detailed that it becomes almost overwelming on an average volume haha. Search for tracks that are good mastered. Some Jazz sounds very crisp and clear. Instrument separation is done very well! You can fine tune the sound to your liking by swapping out the default filters. Depending on the color youll eighter add or remove a few db from the highs. Play around with the included buds for a perfect fit in your ear, it wil greatly inpact how your experience will be.

I've been thinking about biting the bullet and going from my 215LTDs (the blue ones) for the 846s, but I'm pretty worried about these sorts of fakes. Getting a pair of bogus 215s would already suck, imagine getting BS 846s, lol.

Andrés Cifuentes Well I had of my Astell&Kern 320 50% off, but I knew the store before, I buyed there my Shure and read many good things about the store. I don't buy such things online, because I want to try it. So if you know a store who sell High End Headphones and they have them 10% off, then buy it :)

Ebay provides full insurance against counterfeits and orders not matching discription even if seller has no refunds stated on the selling page. They have to refund if item is not what was said to be sold. If seller does not reply ebay or pay up. Ebay will pay you a refund equal to the full payment you paid at through ebay to the seller :)
