Should I upgrade my Shure E2c's?

Hi Folks,

Sorry for the repetitive question.

Recently, my e2c's died on me. The cord frayed and I get crackling now so I'm looking for a replacement. First and foremost they are ONLY used at the gym. I wouldn't really consider myself an audiophile so I won't be too critical. Here's a list of things that matter in my decision.

1. Isolation - KEY! I have to drown out the garbage at the gym
2. Comfort
3. Price
4. Look - I don't want anything that sticks out too far.

I never had a problem with the E2c's. They sounded just fine to me. Much better than the standard ipod phones I'm stuck with now. The question is do I buy another pair of E2c's or upgrade to e3c's or something else?

Music wise, I'll listen to anything but mostly rock when working out. Bass isn't a huge deal...

Thanks
Tony

I would say upgrade, i don't really enjoy my e2c's anymore..

Maybe go for super.fi 5 pro's??

I'd like to stay under 150.

Send them back to Shure, they'll replace them for you for free.
Sure has the best warranty service I've ever seen in a company. I accidently destroyed mine, and they STILL replaced them for free.
