Hi. What do you guys think about the whole cans vs ear plug type headphones debate? I tried out a pair of Shure E2Cs from Circuit City the other day and they were nowhere near worth the $200 I paid for them. Took them back right away for a refund. Got back home and continued using my Sony cans. Don't ge me wrong. The Shures sounded pretty darn good but after wearing them for the few minutes I thought "Boy are these uncomforatable!" It also made me realize that (IMHO) earplug-like phones don't deliver the fullness and richness of cans. Cans cover the whole ear and therefore gives the listener more sonic dimension. Not too mention they're way way WAY more comfortable!
But maybe I'm wrong. Maybe I should give plugs another chance. What do you guys think? Plugs or cans? Which is capable of delivering the best sound quality in your opinion?
