Our Verdict
MEE audio M6 PRO
Shure SE215
The Shure SE215 and MEE audio M6 PRO are wired in-ear monitors with detachable cables that fit hooked over your ears. The Shure are slightly better built and feel more comfortable for long listening sessions. Their isolation performance is also great and will allow you to concentrate on your audio content. Sound-wise, they're warmer and boomier than the MEE but not as clear in the highs. On the other hand, the MEE have an in-line remote and an in-line microphone, which the Shure lack. Their sound profile is noticeably brighter, with a balanced bass and midrange. However, our MEE unit seemed to have a mismatch in phase.
