I'm stationed in Iraq and these memory foams are a lifesaver out here in the desert. While everyone else is using the same ear foams for protection while traveling in the helicopters and planes, I'm getting double use from them, I'm protected from the loud noise from the extremely loud aircrafts and enjoy my music at the same time. I love my memory foam earphones.
The best option for the 'best' fit ......
I tried all the rubber vinyl plugs that came with the E3C's, but they all had the shortcoming of not effectively sealing the ear canal making bass very poor, and they were uncomfortable. The yellow foam plugs are easy to use and work just like the ear foams many people use in industrial applications. They effectively seal the ear canal and are very comfortable. Although they seem a bit expensive I've found that once they get dirty you can use water and a bit of dish detergent to clean them. Just soak, squeeze, rinse and let them air dry and they are as good as new. You can do this three or four times, then just toss them away.
Highly recommended.
Very comfortable and a good buy.
First off, I LOVE my new Shure E3c phones! I can really hear the music and none of the annoying chatter when I'm flying anywhere. The ear foams were my best choice as I have small canals. A 20-piece set of spares is a good buy, as your originals will eventually get too dirty.
i <3 these headphones
and the replacement foam thingies... they're great. i must say.. that the shure e4c's are the best in-ear headphones i've ever had... and i love how the foam ear phone coverings are so noise isolating.. i use them for all sorts of things!
shure really knows their stuff. they rock.
I like the foam earphone slips!
After trying all the different kinds of earphone tips that came with my E3c earhones, I found that the foam covers work best. Besides, they're just like the earplugs I used to wear when traveling on little turboprop planes from Reno to Salt Lake to visit my kids! They really do block the outside world and allow the music to come through, unabated.
I just don't have the heart to tell my wife how much I spent on the earphones, though. I'm sure she just wouldn't understand! :-)
