Digital camera reviews of Shure E2c-n Sound Isolating Earphones (Black)
Digital camera Review: At Long Last - The Ultimate Buds!
Summary: 5 Stars
I have been through many pairs of earbuds -- Sony, Koss, and a variety of lesser known brands. The Shure e2's have it all. They are the first pair I've owned that stay in position in my ear even when I'm cycling or working out. The sound quality is amazing. I am an avid CD collector. Recently, I finally capitulated and got an MP3 player. In the past, I listened to CD's on my portable player and the sound was great. When I switched to MP3's, I didn't really notice too much difference. With the e2's, the difference is obvious. I can hear the dynamic range so well that I can tell that there are frequencies missing. It's still better than not being able to tell.Digital camera Review: Awesome headphones
Summary: 5 Stars
This is my first pair of ear canal headphones. I was skeptical that there could be SOOO much difference between regular earbuds/headphones and a pair of these. I knew Shure had a great reputation, but had no idea they were this good.
Part of the improved listening experience comes from the design. Since these fit into the ear canal instead of over the ear or in the ear cavity, they bock out most of the sound from outside. This makes the sound from the earphones much clearer and allow you to get incredible sound quality at lower volumes.
The other thing that makes these earphones better is the design and quality. They have gold-plated connectors and awesome sounding drivers. You get 9 sleeves to choose from, so fit is perfect. In fact, if you see a review that says they don't sound/fit right, that person is undeniably using the wrong ear pieces. They even have stick on wax shields to screen the electronics from ear wax.
The first time I watched a movie, I couldn't believe these sit in your ear canal, but allow you to hear in surround sound! Another note, I had to adjust the eq on my mp3 player, because these are so awesome. You will be amazed at how much range they have on every band of the eq.
At first it took me a day or two to get used to how you put them in. The cord goes over the ear from the back and the driver housing fits perfectly in your ear cavity. The sleeve (ear piece) fits just inside the ear canal. The first couple of times you have to adjust them to get the right seal. If they aren't in all the way, the sound will be "tinny" like there isn't enough bass. You'll see reviews that say they don't have enough bass - this is why I tell you that person isn't wearing them correctly, because when you get the tip sealed right the bass BOOMS. It takes a little practice. After putting them in and taking them out a few times, I can get them in and sealed almost as easy as putting in those crappy earbuds I used to use.
Don't sweat the price, you will be happy. I am a notoriously cheap and these cost a lot to me. My only regret is that I didn't buy them years ago. I can only imagine how good the earphones are that cost twice or 3X as much.
Digital camera Review: Awesome!
Summary: 5 Stars
I love, love these earphones! I was recently at a swimming pool with probably 60 people, including about 20 LOUD kids. I turned on my ipod and used these Shure earphones and could only hear my favorite tunes! All the background noise was COMPLETELY quiet.....amaaaaazing! Buy these!Digital camera Review: Better than ER-6
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought these to replace a pair of ER-6's that went belly up on me. The ER-6's were nice, but it really took a lot to get a reasonable amount of bass out of them. The Shure's have wonderful warm bass tones and the rest of the frequencies are sufficient to give a really, really nice overall sound, especially considering their price range.
You won't be disappointed.
