Shure E2C Headphones Review

The Shure E2C sound isolating headphones are surprisingly good for being such dinky little things. Excellent sound quality, of course, with great detail and clarity. Very nice for being on the move with your iPod. Balance is nice, but if there's anything I don't like about it is that the bass isn't as pronounced as I'd like. But, I like a ton of bass, and I'd say for the Shure E2C the bass is normal.

What is really cool about these headphones is the way they reduce outside noise. There is no artificial sound that attempts to override outside noise coming through the E2C headphones, but instead they simply prevent any outside noise from getting in by design. It's in the way they fit to your ear. But, DEFINITELY try before you buy these if you can find a way. If you don't like the way they fit, it's gonna get to you. Personally I think they are very comfortable, but one of my roommates disagrees.

It's also pretty sweet that they block outside noise without having to run on batteries.

If noise cancelling is important to you, definitely check these out. They're not super expensive and you won't have to waste your money on batteries all the time. Plus they have great detail and balance. The only reason I didn't get them is because they lack the bass I love.
