Product Description
Featuring Dynamic MicroDriver technology that delivers a full frequency soundstage originally developed for professional musicians, the E2CN is ideal ideal for enhancing your listening experience with iPod, portable MP3, DVD, and CD players as well as all other audio sources. An included selection of interchangeable sleeves allows for a comfortable, personalized fit. Plus, the E2CN ships with an zippered carring case for easy storage. The E2CN's in ear design works like an earplug to block background noise naturally. This enables you to listen comfortably at lower volumes, even in loud environments. And unlike bulky headphones utilizing active noise cancellation technology, no artifacts are introduced into your listening experience. Sound isolating earphones are also much smaller and don't require batteries. The soft, flexible sleeves in the Fit Kit gently contour the inside of the ear for a comfortable, secure fit so that the earphones don't fall out while you're exercising. The cable spool inside provides a convenient, tangle-free way to store your earphones. Sensitivity (at 1kHz) - 105dB SPL/mW Impedance (at 1kHz) - 16 Ohm Cable Length - 1.57m (62 inches) Input Connector - 3.5 mm (1/8 inch) gold-plated stereo plug Unit Weight - 30 gram (1 ounces)

 Great after fit and Break in March 5, 2006

I bought these and did have a tough time with getting a proper fit. I was about to send them back. Then I took the time found the correct ear piece and bam. Fit was awesome and ALL sound was blocked out. Then the longer I wear then the better the sound has become.The Bass is awesome. I listen to a lot of Nine Inch Nails/Depeche Mode concerts. The sound is 100 % awesome.
Just take the time and use the Shure online fit guide. The instructions that came with them have a misprint in regards to left and right. That is part of the problems I had at first with the fit.
Buy em yu will not be unhappy.
I wear for 2-3 hours a pop. No ear soreness.

I have used the Shure e2c earphones (the previous model) for about 2 years now. Impressions:
(1)The standard rubber plugs are not comfortable, and don't give very much noise isolation. The foam plugs are very comfortable and really seal out the noise. Be prepared to be grossed out by all the earwax you didn't realize you still had in your ears.
(2) Sound quality: 8/10. Not studio monitor quality, but very very good.
(3) Isolation: 10/10. Seriously. Use these on a flight and you'll gladly take a seat next to a screaming infant. Only problem is that you see the flight attendant's mouth moving as she asks you if you want a Coke or 7up, but you won't be able to hear her.
(4) When you first get them, you'll try putting them in your ears without success. Only after about the third try, all of a sudden the foam thingys go all the way inside, and you say, "So THAT'S how you put them in!" After that, piece of cake. You need to compress the foam just like you do with regular foam earplugs.

I have been skeptical of $99+ earbuds.... Still don't know if these are "noise canceling" so much as they are just "ear plugs". But as the other reviews mention, once you get the FIT - they are amazing. I never expected earbuds could sound like these. (I did have to adjust my ipod EQ for more bass - but I expected as much.) Well worth the price.
 Consumers Beware! January 11, 2007

I have owned two pairs of these headphones in the past year in a half. The reason I have owned two is because the first pair stop functioning after 9 months and now, 5 months later after shure sent me a new pair of e2cs, the second pair has broken in the same exact fashion. Bad luck i thought, but after talking with two of my friends, owners of shure e2c's who experienced the same exact problem I did, I am convinced that the e2c design is fatally flawed. If you buy these headphones, you will experience the pristine and great sound quality that everyone raves about but only for 7-10 months before the right earbud stops functioning rendering your e2cs useless. I can only surmise that the reason there are not too many people complaining of the same problem is that people who do write reviews on amazon write them within 1-3 months of owning the product so when their product does break, they do not take the time to post or write about it online. Well, after my second pair e2c's broke and after consulting with my friends about the same problem, consumers have a right to know that Shure is distributing a faulty product. I really hope this email is an impetus for the people at Shure to finally redesign their earbuds and stop tarnishing their name with the e2cs. Thank you - rock on

There are some inconsistent reviews on the sound quality of these earphones, basically it comes down to how you like to listen to your music. If you like to press "bass Xpand" button on your stereo for that booming sound ,you may be dissapointed with the "flat" sound coming out of these earphones. Those of you who keep that "direct" button on on your amps will love the clean ,detailed sound of E2c.Remember that most music is in the midrange frequency.Listening to dance/trance or hip hop, I sometimes wish for deeper bass. But true bass is difficult to reproduce in small earphones. The illusion of deep bass in some cheap earphones is just that...an illusion. As for the fit and comfort I have no complaints. If youre not sure whether you'll like insert phones, get yourself a pair of foam ear plugs and try to wear them for a while. That will give you an indication of how you're going to tolerate them. The only discomfort comes from the wraped cords around my ears after few hours of listening.
The quality is excellent,the cord is long and the case is nice. These will outlast a cheap pair many times over.Recommended.
