Product Description
Manufacturer's Description
Originally developed for professional musicians, the E3c combines WideBand MicroDriver technology with a sound isolating design to deliver rich, detailed sound with improved high end while blocking outside noise -- ideal for optimizing your listening experience with portable MP3, DVD, and CD players as well as all other audio sources.
The E3c'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 E3c's speakers are constructed with studio-grade components to produce exceptional audio clarity, delivering detailed highs and enhanced bass that allows you to hear parts of your music you've never heard before. Because every ear is different, E3c Earphones come with a pair of disposable Foam Sleeves, three pairs (small, medium, large) of Flex Sleeves, and three pairs of Soft Flex Sleeves (small, medium, large) to ensure the ideal personalized fit.

4.0 out of 5 stars
Upgrade to these or die!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Shure E3c Sound Isolating Earphones (Electronics)
I've tried a variety of in-ear earphones for my mp3 player, including Sennheiser, Sony, Sony noise-cancelling and cheapies. These Shure earphones are the best. They provide the combination of sound isolation and sound quality that none of the others have been able to match. The only reason they don't get 5 stars is becaue I want the Shure E5, which are several times the price. The only alternative I know of to consider might be earphones by Etymotic, but I decided against them after reading reviews of the sound generated by banging the earphone cables.Earphones that come with portable devices often aren't very good, and people will be surprised by the increase in sound quality that can be achieved by upgrading. Earphones like these that project into the ear are so much more comfortable for long-term use than the traditional type.

Having read the reviews for this item I was a bit suprised to read about someone actually harming themselves whilst using these. I have used Plugs for a good few years now ranging from Etymotic ER3Ps to Sures E5s and I have never had a problem. You should never shove the plugs in but place them in the ear til you get a good seal, I find the best way to see if this has been obtained is to turn on the TV before you put them in and if you can;t hear the TV at all when you've place the plugs in you 9/10 have a good seal. The tell tale signs that you don't have a good seal is a rather tinny sound and the Bass tends to be affected. It is very easy just to wiggle the plugs about til there is an improvement. These plugs aren't as precise as my etymotics but they seem to be far more comfortable to wear over longer periods as there is no fatigue when wearing them, something that has been reported by etymotic users. Personally I think that they are a very good pair of plugs, not as good as the etymotics but at £70 cheaper they are a bargain. I have used them with my I-pod and have found that they do a very good job. the biggest problem with plugs is that if you are expecting a phone call or a visitor to ring your door bell you feel you can't relax as there is no way you could possibly hear either so you are constantly looking, But if you are a serious music lover like me you'll love the way they transport you away to a completely different world. Just be prepared to be called unsociable. These are a good buy if you aren't bothered with plugs right in your ear. P>TopmDrawer, Shop around on Amazon for a good price, there are som really good offers about, i got mine for £80

I had a pair of Shure E2c earphones and was happy with them, except that they became uncomfortable after an hour or so and then one of the children nicked the cable with a pair of scissors, so I ad to replace them. I decided to upgrade to the E3cs and am glad I did.I appear to have a fairly small ear canal, which is why the E2cs were less comfortable. They are significantly larger in diameter than the E3cs. When I got the new earphones, I tried each of the fittings in turn and settled on the foam plugs. The others were all a little too bulky, and the foam compresses well. Once in the ear canal it expands to fit snugly. The E3c listening experience is also improved by comparison with the E2c earphones. Because of the snug fit, I am able to have the volume at a fairly low level, and there is no need to adjust it for different environments -- the sound isolation is very good. I have also discovered that the clarity of recordings is enhanced. This has had the unfortunate side-effect of highlighting the poor quality of some of the older recordings in my collection, but that can be attributed to their character! For me, the earphones provide a very good range of treble and bass. In conclusion, a worthwhile purchase.
