Shure E4c Earpod For The iPod
May 21st, 2005 by Chi An
Shure have just released their E4c earphones. These are the in-ear type with various mouldings (sleeves) that fit on to the actual phones so you can get a comfortable fit.
The E4c’s do superbly and it seems that bass, midrange and treble have all improved. A big advantage of using in-earphones is that they block off almost all external sound (which can be detrimental to your health if you use them in a situation where you need to hear things going around you). Not being distracted by external noise means the volume of the device you’re listening to can be turned down, which has two advantages i) battery life is extended and ii) more importantly, there is less distortion and notes sound truer. While sitting on the underground you could just hear the station announcements on the public address system, but not much else. The music playing was ambient dance music and you could really make out the nuances etc. Unfortunately the only downside of blotting out everything made you realise even more how miserable everyone looked.

“Wow, another great earphone from Shure”
This is my first impression of the Shure’s E4c. You have no doubt against the quality of Shure’s stuffs. if you want excellent sound reproduction, noise isolation and good looks, go for it. But remember, the retail price is around US$370 USD299.99!
