Paradigm SHIFT E2m - White (2 Pack)

E2 SHIFT, Paradigm

I really have no other in ear headphones to compare these to other than the cheap ones and a pair of beats that came with my HTC phone a while back. In all honesty, I don't notice anything about the cheapies or beats that sets them apart. Well, ok... the cheap ones are crap and the beats are better. But, I'm happier with these. They are comfortable in my ear, even if I'm lying on my side on a pillow. The cord material is great and the Paradigm sound, well... good. Finally, headphones that do As they should. They are clean sounding with just the right amount of bass. Feel of a higher quality than the rest. Would I buy them again? Yes. I do wish there was a volume button on the mic and phone answer button, but it's ok as those can be quite problematic at failing and introducing static and failing. Best of luck. For the price, I'd give these a try before I shelled out the big dollars for that other supposed high end headphone company. Did I mention that even at very high volume the music image stays intact so long as you don't overdo the volume equalization combination. Oh, checkout the ohms on these. Chances are they will play louder by your amplifier compared to those at 32 ohms. Also, Paradigm are the makers of some of the finest home audio speakers. Doubt they'd risk that reputation on those high dollar speakers just to move some crap earbuds. Just my 2 cents. Get a pair and give your own.
