Hi all,

I am currently using a pair of faulty Shure E3c's and ready to replace (faulty wire problem over and over again).

I have seen some favorable reviews of the RE2. I have a couple of questions however:

- can they be looped over the ears like the Shures?
- will the RE2 sound quality come anywhere close to the E3c's?
- I am using with an MP3 player - is it worth going up to the RE1?

One of the main attractions of the RE's for me is the free worldwide shipping as im based in New Zealand.

Any advice would be most appreciated.

Cheers

Mike.

1) Yes, I do that sometime.

2) IMO, yes. I prefer ER6i to E3c, and I prefer RE2 to ER6i.

3) Yes, even without an amp, RE1 still sounds better than RE2.
