I've had my E2Cs for almost two years. I had to send them in for repair because the cord began to degrade and finally one of the buds worked intermittently. I sent it in for repair and I got brand new (not refurbished) ones back with no questions. Warranty service is GREAT!
BUT this review is not about Sure's warranty. Its about the quality of these earbuds that took me nine months of ownership to discover.
Out of the box the performance of these buds is good but not out of this world, until you set up your music players EQ. These buds are a little over-zealous in the upper end and the lower end needs at least a baby boost to sound like it should. Further, when playing with iTunes I get vastly better results by first turning down the pre-amp. After turning down the pre-amp, bumping the bass up and trimming the highs I get amazing results. Brahms never sounded better and Bromst blows my mind. I only wish I could apply this custom EQ setting to my iPhone for these kind of results on the go.
Another great thing about this set is that you can run the cord behind your ear and down your back so that the cord doesn't get in your way while you work. Its also great for listening while riding my scooter with a helmet (at safe, low volumes, with one bud, only while the scooter isn't in motion and is off the road, of course).
So: great comfort, excellent sound quality, and superb support. I'd buy these again in a heartbeat! The ONLY reason I have to give them four stars is because I do think these should be a bit better out-of-the box.

The earphone sits inside the ear canal, but the sound, sounds like its coming from one of those guys who have those default ipod head phones and have the volume cranked up.
Music sounds empty, very cumbersome to put on. Recommend paying more for Bose triports.

I bought the earphones solely to listen to the movie/music aboard long distance flights. Sound quality is comparable to the earphones supplied by the airline. The sound isolating feature depends on how tightly the earphones are fitted to the ear. Earphones come with a selection of different side adapters to match different ear sizes but finding the adapter tight enough to both isolate sound and to not fall out when moving your head is a nuisance particularly when squashed into economy seating.

I have owned several Shure earphones, the E2c and the more expensive E5s. Great sound quality. Perfect for use on airplanes because they provide sound isolation. Sort of a passive Bose idea. With the tapered ear bud, you get better sound, more compact to carry, & same noise canceling.

I love these earphones- they are comfortable and the sound is excellent. I actually bought 2 pairs, one for me and one for my husband. 6 months after we bought them, my husband's pair broke, where the connection in one ear continually broke up. Now, 9 months after purchase, my own pair is having the same problem. I'm guessing it's due to the design of the earbuds, which go up and over your ear, and the continual bending probably wears the connection out quickly.
I contacted Shure with my receipt and they immediately replaced my husband's pair. Hopefully they do the same with mine, as there is a 1 year warranty on these headphones.
Considering the price and the low life span of them, I wouldn't purchase these again. If Shure made another product that didn't require the bending/twisting of the wires then I'd gladly stay with Shure.
