 Nice earphones for people wearing glasses August 25, 2008
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.
 Love 'em (but cords are too winpy) June 30, 2008
This is my third pair of these in the past 5 or so years. To be more exact I have had two pair of Shure E2Cs and now my first pair of Shure SCL2s, but there basically the same earphones. The fact that I keep buying them at $75 tells you that I like them. The sound is just fine and the sound isolating is great. I use them on the subway most days and on airplanes when I travel. They are great for that.
I have also owned noise cancelling headphones and I much prefer the sound isolating style. If you're in between the two types, here is my view. The noise canceling headphones are more comfortable. But after you use the sound isolating headphones for a while, you'll get used to them. The two big advantages to the sound isolating are they are much smaller and they don't need batteries. The size is an obvious advantage, but don't discount the importance of batteries. I can't tell you how many times I forgot to switch off my sound isolating headphones and had dead batteries Monday morning on my way to work.
Now for my one gripe about the Shure headphones (causing 4-stars instead on 5). The cords are too wimpy. The reason I am on my third pair of these is that the cord had frayed away right next to the ear bud. Eventually they fray to the point that they just break. For $75 they should make the cord sturdy.
Sound Good to Me! June 14, 2008
I just got a pair of the Shure SCL2 Sound Isolating Earphones in black and I have to say they sound really good with my iPod and laptop. They don't perform as well as my other set, the Shure SE530's but what do you expect when you compare what $500.00 buys you versus $69.00 or so. These are for me to wear exercising, riding my bicycle, and doing yard work in (which I don't dare do wearing the SE530's). All in all, the bottom-end Bass response is more than adequate and the SCL2's produce clear and pleasing high-end reproduction. A good buy!
I like them 3 weeks into purchase -but think Ulimate ears Superf-fi 3 are better June 7, 2008
I have had the Ultimate ears super-fi 3's b4 I got these I broke my Ultimates-breakage not under warranty. The Super-fi's had better cords or wires that configured over the ears after beak-in time and the Shure's are not as durable but who knows it is early yet. Have to say I have to wear the shure's cords behind the neck and down the back when Im out walking or else the cords that come around the ear come undone-annoying. tis why 3 stars but customer service for shures are #1 I hear tis my factor in buying and decent quality. In summation- It was worth the $ but Im going with UE 4's next time around- I hope in 3yrs-warranty on shures end in 2yrs.
Great sound, isolation for the money May 30, 2008

I actually bought the Shure e2c's but these came instead and are basically the same earphone, maybe even a little better. As an upgrade from the iPod pack-ins, these are a definite improvement. Sound quality is much clearer and they make the music come alive. However, getting them in your ears is a slight hassle compared with the ipod earbuds. Keep in mind the cord on these will need to go around your ear, which takes some getting used to.
The best part of these earphones is their isolation quality. Shure includes a good variety of ear pieces to fit your ear best, and they all do a decent job at keeping ambient noise out. These aren't noise cancelling however, so you are bound to be able to hear a little outside noise. With these earphones, any noise will be behind the music as opposed to interfering with it. On a side note, the ear pieces were a little hard to get off the earphones, so I suggest using the side of paperclip to wedge them off.
Some nice parts of these phones:
1. An excellent cord, about the right length. You don't get any cord extender, but these earphones reach around your knees. Best of all, the cord surprisingly doesn't act like a stethoscope transferring rubbing noises into your music. Compared to other earbuds I've tried, the cord is very nice.
2. A handy carrying case
3. The right and left earphone cords are the same length. Unless you like to wrap the cord around to one side of your neck, this is much appreciated.
All in all, for the price of ~$65 you can't go wrong with these.
