I misplaced my shure e2c's. When I realized where I had left them I go pretty worried. They were in my pants pocket and had gone through both the washer and dryer.

I was pretty anxious and was shure that they were toast. I comforted myself with the fact that they were only $100 phones and not the e500's I was considering buying. Time to try them out.

THEY WORKED!!!

And sounded as good as ever!

I have been using them for over two months now.

I am pretty happy about that.

Unbelievable!!!! Your experience is tempting me to try it on my E4c too...

J/K!

Yeah, the Shures can take some damage. Mine have been dropped over concrete, in puddles, etc.

But they couldn't take more than 3 weeks of cold weather (and I'm in Florida!). Just an FYI...

Hahaha. My old Sony MDR-EX71 also managed to survive the wash. Then again, my little brother's pair conked out after a few weeks with no abuse.

Thanks for the story! That's what over 80 years of making audio products for the white house and WWII get you.
