Product Description |
| Be the game with the ultimate earphones for your PSP. The Shure E4g uses the same award winning sound and design used in the E Series line.The E4g Sound Isolating (tm) Earphones feature high definition drivers with Tuned Port technology to deliver an ultra-wide audio range with brilliant highs and extended bass. As the ultimate companion to your portable gaming devices, the E4g combines premium performance audio with innovative design and sound isolation to create an unmatched immersive gaming experience. It's also compatible with your iPod Nano. The E4g includes a full selection of sleeves to ensure a perfect fit and a zippered carrying case. In black, of course. Shure makes audio equipment - microphones, earphones, mixers, etc. that are used by professional musicians the world over. Shure knows sound. If your sound is important to you, you want earphones engineered with the same kind of technology that your favorite divas and bands use to be sure they can hear themselves during a performance. That's Shure's "Sound Isolating" technology. Rather than introducing external elements to block out ambient sound (as noise cancelling earphones do), the Shure system creates a sealed environment that keeps noise out, without covering it up by injecting noise-cancelling artifacts that can interfere with your gaming or your music. You'll hear details you never heard before. |

| I've gone back and re-ripped all of my songs at 192kps to take full advantage of what these earphones have to offer. I'm going to qualify my post by saying that I listen almost exclusively to an iRiver Clix. Which player you have is IMPORTANT. They each have a unique sound built in. My player has a graphic equalizer, so I am not stuck with factory presets. I'll tell you a little about my odyssey. I bought a Clix and a U10 in December. I am a person of small stature and have very small ear canals, so the earphones that came with the Clix just simply did not fit. So I bought the Sennheiser CX300's. After a day, I noticed that I could not hear the mid or high ranges. I went to Cnet reviews and realized that the V-Moda Bass Frequencies were an editor's choice. They were an improvement over the Sennheiser's, but like the Cnet editors said, They are for bass craving listeners--mostly those who own SanDisks' and Creative products because those products do not have equalizers. Since I could boost the bass on my player, I really did not need added bass. What I found out is that I am an audiophile. I want balanced, rich sound from my earphones. I first bought the Shure E2cs, and then finally the E4gs. I bought the E4gs because the cord is shorter than that of the E4cs. The sound is brilliant--beautiful tenor saxes and lead guitars. Excellent, deep bass. The music I listen to ranges from 1930's blues, 40's-50's rock on up and down the spectrum. Do not expect them to be as bassy as the Sennheiser's or V-Moda's. Those earphones emphasize bass. The emphasis of these headphones is BALANCED sound. Also, Shure's earphones typically requires a 20 hour break-in. |
Excellent earphones

| this little gadget is wonderful. i can turn it full blast and be in a world of my own. note if volume is at its max u won't here anyone trying to talk to u. i did notice extra sound effects i normally wouldn't from an regular earphones. u can hear to in movies words ur ear would not dare to listen. also the earplugs at times do feel uncomfortable this is because they can be to tight and having them earphones plug in for a long length of time can annoy the ears. the wire is sturdy and strong. yes very expensive equipment, but worth it if ur a moviephile, musicphile and gamephile. |
Not as good as I tought ...

I was hopping an impressive experience with this earphones in my MP3 player, but it wasn't. They give a superior quality in high frequencies, the sound is very clear, but in low frequencies I felt a low quality, a "litle empty bass", definitively lower than the standard earphones of my Zen Micro. With the E4G you can perceive more clearly the sound and others sound you haven't hear before.
The external sounds isolating feature, uhmmm, not too good.
You must insert very deep the sleeves in order to get a better bass response and a better isolation of external sounds. Maybe.
About confort, they are A+, excellent !, no complains about it.
But finally, they are good, very good earphones, but not as impressive, not for their price, perhaps. And not for other comments about them,also.

| Sound quality is the best I've heard for an earphones product. The only negative I have found is that they are nearly impossible to use while running. |
good headphones, but not drastic improvement over lower-end models

| I originally purchased these headphones as an upgrade over E2C, the selling point being that these were advertised to have "extended bass" with "tuned-port technology." However the low end difference between these and E2C is not even noticeable. The only improvement is the clarity of the higher freq. Another drawback is that these earbuds are smaller, and as such, are more difficult to stay in place. Shure includes a fitting apparatus which does help, however this only adds an annoying bulk. If you are willing to dish out ~$200 for a pair of these, might as well save more to purchase the SE4XX or SE5XX models, as these are not enough of an upgrade from an E2 or E3 to justify the cost. For the money, I'd highly recommend the E2C which is going for ~$50 which is a very solid performer even for an entry low-end model. |
