Summary: So-so sound for too high a price
Comment: Anyway you slice it (or spell it), "base," "bass," Schmase, these earphones just don't have the nice full-bodied sound of the 3-way Bose earphones that sell for about the same price. If you plan on listening to anything but Chopin, bass is a very important element of music, and you will sorely miss it with these. It's not that I want more bass than present in the original recording, it's that I don't want the bass on my rock, punk, jazz, hip-hop, and classic rock (I do have an eclectic taste) to sound like static on a cheap transistor radio. Give me break, I am not a musician, but I can hear the difference between good and bad, and these are only slightly better than the earphones that came standard with my iPod. I didn't hear anything that "I never heard before" in the music as some reviewers claimed. I guess I will keep this pair, because I am too lazy to repackage them and return them, but my next pair will definitely be Bose. My friend has them and they sound so good it makes me want to cry cry cry for spending all my money on these Shures, based on the reviews I read on this site. . .

Summary: The Perfect Budget Headphones
Comment: Keep in mind that this review is coming from someone who does not write reviews for the products they purchase on Amazon.com. I just feel that these headphones are so good that I had to tell other people.
First of all, I received these headphones as a birthday present two months ago. When I first listened to them, I thought that they were sub-par. I then realized that not only did I have them in my ears incorrectly, but the ear piece that was on the headphones was also too small for my ears. I switched around between the three different types (soft rubber, hard rubber, foam) and found that the medium sized soft rubber tips were the ones for me. My friend had recently received the Bose Triport In-Ear headphones, and I tried them out. All that they seemed to improve was the bass of the standard iPod headphones. These, however, are AMAZING. The high's and mid's of every song I have listened to have been surreal (try listening to any music with Horns and/or Piano). These headphones have something called a burn-in, which means that you basically have to break in the headphones because at first, the bass is not very up to par. After about two weeks of using them, they were without a doubt the best headphones that I had ever owned. The bass is perfect in my opinion, and not overwhelming as the Bose headphones are. Trust me, you will be hearing things in your music that you never even knew was there with these! A very highly recommended purchase!

Summary: awesome headphones
Comment: I got these as a replacement for the E2C due to a frayed cord. I didn't think they would send me a new pair since the old ones were about 1.5 years old, but I hadn't abused them...the cord just seemed to crack above the ear. Anyway, they sent me a new pair of SCL2s under warranty, SWEET!!!!
Anyway, I LOVE sound isolating earphones. I like my music loud, but I don't have to turn it up nearly as loud with sound isolating earphones. These earphones stay in place when exercising, which is the main time that I use them.
The sound quality is excellent. I am sure there are headphones that sound better, but for the money these are the best I have owned. They are great at blocking noise on a plane, train etc.
I haven't noticed the lack of bass that others mention - just using these with an ipod.
I did find that one ear likes a smaller plastic fitting than the other, so a nice thing about these is that you get a selection of ear pieces so you can customize the fit. Even in long bike rides in the rainy NW they stay put and sound good.
So yeah, very happy with these headphones, I would buy them again in a heartbeat and would recommend them to friends.

Summary: Great bang for your buck
Comment: Great set of headphones. Just be careful about dropping them on the floor as the shell can be prone to breaking.

Summary: Nice earphones for people wearing glasses
Comment: These are a nice upgrade from the earlier model E2c. Truly isolating all the background noise. Very comfortable with my glasses. I love that they ship with 3 different ear sleeves for customizing the feeling in your ear. Great phones, i love them. No issues with tucking them behind the ear.
