Good solid solution
I'd been looking for a reasonably priced but good quality set of IEMs as an introduction to IEMs so I figured these fit the requirements. I tried them for the first time lastnight at a small show (~300 people) in a smallish room with a 6 piece band. My intention was to give them a try during soundcheck and switch back over to my usual floor monitor, they sounded so well in soundcheck that I used them for the whole show.
Isolation wasn't 100% but I don't think I'd have liked it to have been either so I could still get a feel for the stage. My stage position (keys) is beside the bass cabs so that still came through as well. When I say that the isolation wasn't 100% it was still fairly good at filtering out a LOT of the ambient noise, when I popped them out at the end of the show for the walk off the crowd noise caught me by surprise!
In conclusion, these IEMs are perfect to give it a try, they're not the expensive custom fit, multi-driver, fancy model so you shouldn't expect them to be but I'd definitely recommend them. Given the positive experience, I intend to keep using these and won't be looking to upgrade any time soon.

Surprisingly comfortable.
Pros: Hitting the cable on accident doesn't make you go deaf like on some other in-ears. The cable over the ear is surprisingly comfortable, maybe since I'm used to wearing glasses though. They sound good and don't make a flimsy impression. The cable is long enough for most cases. It comes with the medium ear-tips preinstalled and they fit my somewhat larger ear.
Cons: Putting them in creates a high pressure in your ear, and when letting go, it changes to a low pressure. I know, most in-ear headphones do this, but these are the most noticeable out of the ones I owned. You don't want low pressure in your ear, it changes the sound and gets irritating after a while or when swallowing/yawning. Pulling them out, since they're conveniently flush with my ear, is a hassle, but that's getting into nitpick territory.
I'll update my review if they break or something happens. If it's still up in like 10 years, assume they still work.

excelent Sound for the money
These are the best in-ear at this price point. I did not tried SE-315 or SE-515, but for the reviews I've read these are close to the SE-315, even better for some purposes. I've tried other more expensive in-ear sets, which can be better but at a much more price tag. I will buy these again if there are no new better options for the price.
