[OT] In-ear headphones

["Mark McCall" <lists@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Had a set of Sony MDR-EX71SLW for a year now for my ipod.  Well

ears (unlike most other ear-bud type headphones).  However, they have just
gone very "quiet" - and this appears to be a well known problem
with them
according to the reviews on Amazon.

Has anyone experience of "Shure E2C"?  Read some great reviews,

comparing with my Sony's saying they didn't have nearly as much bass.  I'm
thinking even with the problems, a pair of Sonys per year might be the best
option.

Any advice OFF-list appreciated.

Thanks
