Good earphones for exercising/running

PAGS

Super Member
I've been using a pair of the Shure E2cs, and this model's predecessors, for several years, and believe they do the job well. They fit snuggly in the ear canal and the cable wraps behind the ear. I've never had them fall out during vigorous exercise - running, etc. They sound good, too. The pair I have are getting old. They seem to crap out just after two years (coincidentally, the length of the warranty period.:scratch2:)

Shure's newest model in the same price range, the SE215, is intriguing. It's in the ear and the cable similarly wraps behind the ear. New features include detachable cables and "formable wire."

I have mine drying out after a visit to the washing machine. Its been a month, maybe they'll be fine D:

The fit and the size of the enclosure took a little getting used to as well as the way they hook around the ear but once you do get used to it as it sounds like you already are then they are the suggest IEMs I've tried yet. Shures sound signature stays with these units which means solid bass and forward mids but no jumbling either.

The two most impressive parts about these IEMs for the price I think are the removable cables and the ear tip selection. The ones that come premounted in the package offer so much isolation from outside noise that you can easily use them on a plane and still keep the volume on your device relatively low. Suffice to say I am a fan.
