Shure E4C

Pros: Exceptionally clear mids, and highs. Extended bass response. VERY comfortable.

Cons: Expensive, Bass could be better for price range.

The Bottom Line: If you have extra cash, then buy them. You won't regret it. If you have to finance them to afford them, forget about it.

Review: Let me first start off by saying that I am not the type of person that would normally pay $300 for a set of headphones. As it turned out I had a large store credit burning a hole in my pocket, so I ended up paying $269 for these babies at Ultimate ...

Pros: High quality, great sound, variety of ear pieces, the cord.

Cons: Price.

The Bottom Line: You won't be disappointed with these ear buds if you can afford the steep price!

Review: I once heard something on a commercial that really sticks in my mind: "You'll remember the quality long after forgetting about the price". Yes, I saved the $299 and it hurt spending it on these my Shure e4c's, but they're well worth it. I chose not to ...

Pros: Clarity is unreal, very sturdy, amazing sound, changeable tips

Cons: pricey, too long a cord,

The Bottom Line: I would definately recommend these earphones because they have amazing sound, are extremely comfortable, sturdy, have a good warranty, and are worth the price.

Review: I workout 5-6x a week and It's very important to me to have a good set of headphones to get my pumped up. -I tried the sennheisers cx300 and I really enjoyed the sound but they were very uncomfortable in my ears. -Ipod headphones are just horrile, I ...

Pros: The smoothest response in the business. Easy to drive with nice case.

Cons: NONE

The Bottom Line: It doesn't get any better nor more accurate than this. Just get them....you won't be sorry.

Review: After going through exhaustive research and use of just about every top flight "In Ear Monitor" type of stereo headphone setup I tried one of the Shure E4C's as a last ditch effort before I literally gave up on hopes of finding the "holy grail" of in ear ...

Pros: If you've spent the money on a good Mp3 player, these are an awesome companion.

Cons: Pricey entrance fee

The Bottom Line: If you only needed one set of headphones these are them. Makes music come alive in your head.

Review: I prefer in ear headphones as opposed to clunky over hear headphones for many reasons. As a commuter I like to block out the sounds of others and keep my sound in. I like to fall asleep sometimes as well without making the weight of my head any heavier. ...

Pros: Outstanding Clarity, Excellent Design

Cons: A little weak on bass

Review: The E4's are the best anywhere in terms of clarity and cannot be beat. You can try them all and I think they are right on top. The only weakness, improved bass over the E3's, but still needs a little work. Yes, you can set your equalizer and all that, ...

Pros: EFFORTLESS PERFECT FIT, VERY CLEAR, BROAD SPECTRUM, VERY LOUD WITHOUT DISTORTION, ON SALE AT JR.COM

Cons: MY CREATIVE ZEN V BARELY FILLS THESE EVEN WITH EQUALIZER HELP, BETTER HAVE NICE PLAYER

Review: JR.COM HAS THESE ON SALE RIGHT NOW FOR $199.99!! I HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THEM EXCEPT THE LOVE I FEEL FOR THEM FOR SELLING ME THESE PHONES SO CHEAPLY. BRAND NEW FACTORY SEALED $214.00 TO MY DOOR IN TWO DAYS! THERE'S YOUR BREAK IN LIFE, ACT FAST BEFORE ...

Pros: Sound, fit.

Cons: Bad wires. 

Review: The problem with these is they sound so good you wear them out.  I returned my first set after about 18 months (on the original 2 year warrantee) and they sent me a brand new set.  The wires of the second set had some bad insulation, and after ...

Pros: Excellent high and mid frequencies. Nice fit with many options.

Cons: Poor bass response. Weak wiring.

The Bottom Line: I would not recommend these to a friend unless I knew that they listened almost exclusively to light classical music.

Review: I bought a pair of Shure E4c's in 2005 for use mainly with my i-Pod. I was taking a trip to Japan that fall, and I wanted to have a quality pair of earphones for the long flight over and back. I already owned a pair of Shure E3c's, which I felt performed ...

Pros: Great highs and midranges. Solid construction and appears it's built to last.

Cons: Poor bass response. Horrible thumping noise when you walk or run.

The Bottom Line: I would recommend staying away from these. Far too much money for too many problems.

Review: Ok, so I really tried to like these. The highs are exceptional and mids are not bad, but when it comes to bass, this is where the trouble starts. In the manual they state that you have to get a "good seal" with the ear canal to get a good bass ...
