    Shure sent me these as a replacement for a pair of E2's that crapped out. They're slightly above average. Great for jazz, classical, and classic rock. Don't bother if you're looking for a big bass sound.

    On the plus side, they have enough choices in ear sleeves that you'll probably be able to fit them comfortably. Probably. They do a great job of ambient noise reduction. My wife can watch TV (loud) and I can listen to music with little disturbance from the TV.

    They're overpriced in comparison to other in-ear models, since their performance isn't tremendous. However, if you step up to the E3 or E4 series, then you're getting some seriously good sound (and laying out some serious cash.) Once again, not worth it if you're just looking for something casual.

    It's stupid to buy little tiny earbuns like these when you can buy much bigger ones at like TJ Maxx and Big Lots. Bigger is always better with headbuns.

    I have a pair of these and they are not bad at all. I have heard better earbuds though. Still good for the price

    I guess we know who wears the dress in this relationship.

    Does this count as quality time? You might want to ask a marriage counselor.

    Lawn: Apparently you're getting different TV programming than we do, down here there's nothing to watch that I give a crap about. Plus, I work on computers in the evenings and TV is a waste of my time (and my awe-inspiring intellect.)

    At least I can get all the comebacks into one post.

    For the small price difference, the SE210 is significantly nicer sounding and would be a worthy upgrade.
