Based on the reviews (7 ok out of 9) I chose to buy the E2c over similarly-priced alternatives (UE, Sennheiser). The first time I received the earphones I was only too eager to try it out as it was shipped and was really disappointed at first as the sound was very bad (worse than the standard ipod earphones) and the fit was no good. I was ready to shout blue murder and set the earphones aside - and confirm the negative reviews. Later that day, I took the time to change the rubber sleeves to the one that fit my ears, and somewhat hesitantly tried it on again - and it was no longer bad! I took out my other headphones to compare the sound quality and I can say for sure that the E2c's are not bad after all. The key was to find the sleeve that fits you right. Although the bass is not heart thumpingly heavy it is reasonable (unless you wanted to go deaf). You don't even need to adjust your player's equalizers. I must admit you can also hear nuances in the music you can't hear using just the standard-issue earphones. However, due to the snug fit of the earphones, it is not recommended to use it whilst you are moving around as you can hear the thump-thump of your footsteps eachoing in your ears which is a tad uncomfortable, not to mention you need to be aware when crossing the street as you might not hear oncoming traffic. To sum up, the E2c is good value for money, good quality, and a recommended buy.
