Shure E2C Consumer Headphones

I kept seeing these advertised on in-flight magazines, and the blurb attracted me, but the price put me off. I found a pair on eBay for 48 quid however, and I have never looked back since. As long as you choose the ear tips carefully from the selection provided, LEARN HOW TO INSERT THEM PROPERLY, and don't throw them around a lot, they are incredible. Everyone who complains about them falling out, or lack of bass is not fitting them correctly, but don't expect disco-levels of bass end, they are not designed for that! they are designed to reproduce EXACTLY what is on your player with no colouration. They also reject a lot of background noise, so you dont have to turn your player up so loud to compete with traffic, plane/train noise etc. I have used mine on countless flights and I can leave the ipod volume at around 30% and sleep happily with my music and very little engine roar. I have had mine 18 months now, and they are as good as new, and sounding even better after they were burnt-in over the first few weeks. I would recommend them to anyone, without reservation. I am saving up to buy some E4 series now, I am so impressed with these.
