I'm looking to buy one of these. Does anyone here have previous experience with ear canal designs? More specifically the Shure E2c?

How about the cheaper Sony ones?

Well, I haven't used one personally, but from what I read about them, they are far superior to regular earphones. They also cost that much more ;)

sony fontopia

Just buy the sony fontopia e828lp. They are excellent. I bought them recently for Rs. 540.
You can get them at any Planet M store for Rs. 600.
It comes with a winding case to keep them and it sounds fantastic. Good bass and treble.

Hey thanks for the info mate. Really appreciate it. 540 is cheap as chips. Will get one and see. I'll get a Shure one too, when I go overseas.

EDIT: Just checked them out. The MDR-E828LP are ear bud design. Not in-ear (ear canal) type :x . No wonder they're so cheap, when the Shure's retail for $100. Not what I was looking for. Thanks anyway.
