I tried 3 different new shower heads made by Moen and 1 by Delta (which was taken down from one of the upper level showers to test). None better than other interms of water pressure. This shower is in lower level, about 15 ft from the water heater. Upper level shower heads gives ample pressure. I checked the pipes (1/2") no evidence of clogg. Found a built in filter those shower head does it causes the problem?

flufernut is correct except for the get used to it part. you can usually take those things apart and remove the restricting plate (a small metal disc with a small hole in the middle) or any other part you feel is restricting water flow (just don't remove the rubber washers) experiment and see what works. The first thing to do however is remove the shower head all together and run the shower to make sure you have ample water flow to begin with

I have the same problem and it has nothing to do with my shower head or faucets. I unfortunately live in an area where I have next to no water pressure at all. I can only have one water source running at a time. If I attempt to turn on a second, or even flush the toilet, I will get no water from either source.

Welcome to the plumbing world thanks to the Kyoto Accord signed in the Clinton era (early 2000s) It's a worldwide attempt to save fresh water by making all plumbing fixture low flow which you may be intrepreting as low pressure. It stinks. Get used to it.
