Wow, night and day difference between these and the sony's -- which broke after two and a half years of rigorous usage. Good headphones but the E2C's put them to shame.

Great Seal - They come with hard plastic, soft plastic, and foam attachments, with three different sizes for each.

Great Reproduction - I listened to a variety of genres including classic rock, reggae, and hip hop and the buds clearly reproduced the highs. There were symbols on "Easy Skankin'" that I never knew existed.

Value - I paid $106 bucks for them which was about $60 more than the newer sony's. I asked around and everyone I spoke with recommended these as a replacement.
