Summary: thank goodness for the warranty! again!
Comment: I'm on my second pair of Shures. The first were E2's that the right side just quit working. They were probably 10 months old. Now I have SCL2's which they sent me instead of the E2's. I'm 8 months into owning them and the LEFT side is now DEAD. I don't think I'm hard on earphones; I just use them at the gym and walking and the bulk of the time is talk podcasts! I guess I'm glad they have a two year warranty, but it would be nicer if they just made earphones that would last for at least a year, for these prices. They'd get 1 star if they didn't stand by their warranty. I'm beginning to wonder if cheap earphones replaced over and over wouldn't cost the same or less than shipping these things back over and over....

Summary: excellent warranty and product
Comment: I bought the E2c 8 months ago, 2 weeks ago I started listening static; apparently was something wrong with the cable, I returned the earphones to Shure for warranty repair and yesterday I received a package from Shure with a letter inside apologizing because the E2c is no longer in stock and there is no way to repair my earphones, in exchange they send me a new pair of SCL2 for free.
There is a great difference in the quality between the E2c and SCL2, the SCL2 has a more flexible cable and a deeper bass
I recommend this earphones they have a good quality and excellent customer service, which is rare to find nowadays, it took me only a week to receive my new SCL2.

Summary: Great Company and Earbuds - Can't Beat Them for the Price
Comment: I had e2c's, and the wires started to crack (this is a common problem that Shure knows about- it has to do with the type of plastic that is used for the insulation and the way it reacts with certain skin chemicals, but ther's no better material available). Shure replaced them for free under the 2 year warranty. The e2c model has since been replaced by the more expensive se2's, but Shure has re-packaged the e2c's as the SCL2. According to Shure, they are the same phone, just repackaged. But...
I agree completely with the previous poster who said that he feels that these sound better than the e2c's. The bass IS deeper, and the sound overall is more detailed and richer. Maybe because they are new? I don't know... all I know is I am very happy with the SCL2's.
One change that I do not like- the hard case has had the inner spool removed, so you no longer have anything to wrap the cord around. I wrap it around my fingers and then jam everything into the case. It goes in fine, but is a mess when it comes out. Shure yanked the spools because they were finding that people were wrapping the cord too tight and causing premature failure of the wires.
Shure's warranty program and service is outstanding. My new phones arrived only 1 week after I sent in my old ones. I just wish I had kept the old case :( but that's really a personal choice kind of thing anyway.

Summary: Better than the E2c
Comment: I got a pair of E2c's from Amazon 22 months ago and got quite a bit of use out of them. About one month ago I noticed that the wires were cracking near the ear pieces which exposed the conductors. I didn't think they'd still be under warranty but I dug up my paperwork and they were; two whole years later! Anyway I sent them into Shure and less than two weeks later I get a pair of SCL2's in the mail.
Appearance-wise they're identical to the E2c pair I had. This time however I tried using the clear plastic ear pieces and I don't know if it's them but these immediately sound better than the E2c's. The bass is richer and it seems like the midtones are fuller.
While the E2c's were great I was never that impressed with the sound, especially compared to my sealed Sennheiser HD280 Pro headphones. However these SCL2's compare favorably. I would get them again and I would buy more Shure products as they have a great product and super customer service.

Comment: Straight out of the container I would have rated these are POOR POOR POOR, not only no bass but just plain FLAT. I plugged them into my computer and had the MP3 player play one song in a hoop all night. Put them on in the morning to find I had full sound other than bass so I started playing with ear pieces until I had full sound. For those with little bass take your time the bass is there. I'm using the soft rubber ones and a different size in each ear. I have had three so called noise canceling headsets and other than the over the ear heavy sets this set blocks out noise or talk.
