What IEMs should I get?

My pair of Shure SE210 just died (cable tore), so it's time for some new ones. I have my eye on the Shure SE535, but was curious if I should just get some custom ones at that price point, or should consider something else?

The new Shure SE535's are great IEM's. I would also recommend checking out the EarSonics SM3 or the new Grado GR10.

Thanks, I'll look into those too.

I'm also contemplating the JH Audio JH-5, since they're in the same price range, customs, and all the reviews seem to indicate they're an incredible value. I'm not sure I really need customs (this isn't for the stage), but if the comfort is higher after longer periods, that might make sense.

Haven't heard the GR10s yet, but I love my GR8s for what they are. What are you using them for and what kind of source do you have?

If you are interested in ordered a pair of customs, let me know. I can also help you out with those. I have a pair of JH16's and they are really comfortable but again are an investment if you do not like the fit or want to try something different, they are made for you so you can not resell them down the road.
