Manufacturer's Description
Shure's E2c in-ear headphones are tiny, lightweight, and designed to sonically outperform most ear-bud-style headphones. The E2c's unique, relatively affordable design comes from Shure's years of collaborating with professional musicians. With high-energy drivers in distinctive enclosures, the E2c produces high-quality sound with excellent isolation from background noise.

The E2c's speakers are constructed with studio-grade components, producing exceptional audio clarity. Their in-ear design, using supplied flex sleeves, naturally blocks background noise. This permits lower listening volumes in loud environments--critical in safeguarding your hearing during performance or other activities. No batteries or extra equipment are needed for sound isolation.

Because every ear is different, E2c earphones come with 3 pairs (small, medium, large) of flex sleeves and 3 pairs (small, medium, large) ultra-soft flex sleeves to ensure a personalized fit. These disposable foam sleeves gently compress to fit in the ear canal. Once in the ear, the foam expands to form a tight seal. Once tightly sealed, the sleeves hold the earphones firmly in place. The E2c's cables pass behind the ear--out of sight and out of the way for comfort and discretion. Weighing only 1 ounce, the E2c is lightweight and comfortable enough for any portable listening application. The set comes with a soft, stylish, compact, and zippered carrying case, which allows for an easy, tangle-free way to store your earphones.

good sound but difficult to fit
the sound is very good on these but i find they're not the easiest to get to fit well - i have some sennheiser cx300 as well and tend to use them much more because they fit easily and the wires are much softer and more flexible - the shure headphones are reather uncomfortable compared to the sennheiser

Fantastic
I bought these over a year ago, and have to say they are fantastic headphones however after buying some Skullcandy ear buds it is noticeable the difference in bass levels, if you want bass these aren't for you, however if you want a good all-round high quality, comfortable and well fitted pair then these are the choice

Excellent
I am currntly on my 2nd pair of the 'phones and I'd buy another set tomorrow if these failed.
I work for the council cutting grass etc and needed a decent set of in ear 'phones to cut out the noise while I work. Well , these do the job perfectly! Once you sort out the correct buds, your rewarded with excellent sound quality provided your player is a decent one. I use an iRiver h320 mp3 player every day ( except weekends) for around 4-6 hrs a day, they never fall out and are totally comfortable, I even took them in the sea once by accident (they were in my pocket and I forgot about them) and they still worked perfectly afterwards.
The cable is thicker than on most phones so is quite robust but like everything in life it does decay in time.My first pair lasted 18 months before the cable round the ear began to split, but considering the amount of abuse I gave them (including their swim)I think they're well worth the money, my previous sony's and sennheiser's never lasted anywhere near that long, nor sounded as good either.I've now had my 2nd pair for over 8 months and as yet have no sign of cracking or splitting, so, if you want a truly excellent sounding pair of phones with a pretty good life span, these are the ones for you.
