How do these compare to the E3c's? I know these are a step down, but is there a noticable difference in quality?
And to isekii:
Sure makes the 2nd best earbuds on the planet. The best earbuds on a planet cost over 1000$ per pair, and the price includes having a ear-nose-and-throat guy make a cast of your ear to send off to the headphone manufacturers.

Got 'em, thanks. I hope they're worth it. Oh yeah, and the coupon didn't work for me either, but I used a 6% coupon that they had emailed me, so still a great deal.

Edit: I keep buying for myself when I'm supposed to be shopping for others. :laugh:

I have the E3C's which I got from Amazon for $115... they are verrrry nice, and I'm sure the 2's can't sound too much worse.

I have the e3c's and I'm not satisfied at all with the low-end reponse. Bass output falls short. Im wondering if the e2c's are better in this field.

These are on sale again, although they are $69.99 - 10% = $62.99 (Free shipping)

From various sites/reviews I've read, the E2C's have bigger bass than the E3C's, but the E3C's are more precise in the sounds. I guess the E2C's are better if you listen to rap/rock or anything heavy in bass.

Do the earbuds come off on these? My biggest problem with the Sony silicon earbuds is that I lose the silicon bud and boom. There goes a $40 pair of earbuds. Second time it has happened and I'm on my third set :(

i hate hate hate earphones that go into your ear. I'm stickin with my Sony E888s which i got for 50 shipped imported from fleabay. Give it a bit of a breakin and I'm happy.

Earphones that go into my ear canal give me headaches and I hate having the world around me muted. All personal preference of course. :beer:
