what do you all think is the best bet for jogging and not getting the microphonic sound i hear about. the 2c seem to be getting high marks and if running is 90% of what i am doing do you think 3c is overkill. people seem to think shure is best for the effect because it goes around ear and behind neck. thanks in advance for help.

Ummm... and you started another thread WHY?

Why not go check the ipodlounge or headphones site or did a google search for some reviews somewhere?

with the foam inserts, the E2c's are great for anything that involves a lot of moving.

catone,

dont read it or take the time to respond if you dont like it. i think i will watch your posts and if they seem at all redundant i will let you know. i wish we could all be like you and i guess know the answers to everything. i thought these forums were here to help us. and when you become the moderator or own the forum you can set the rules.

I have the E2's and they are great for moving around. I also have the ER-4P's (ER-6' big brother) and they have some serious microphonics. I think you should go with the E2's, not too expensive and perfect for jogging. They are also very though, so you won't break them easily.
