Amazon.com Product Description
An excellent introduction to premium audio via sound isolation, the discrete, comfortable and affordable Shure SCL2 earphones in black use Shure's award-winning earphone technology for a rich response across the full sonic range. Utilizing Shure's award-winning earphone technology, they're great for use on live stages as well as with any home or portable audio device in noisy environments such as bus stations, airports, and more. The SCL2 earphones feature Single Dynamic MicroDriver technology that delivers full range sound and isolation from outside noise.



Shure's sound-isolating SCL2 earphones in black.
Sound isolating earphones provide sound quality far beyond the technical ability of the most expensive earbuds and isolation that's superior to the best headphones. By creating a secure fit between the sound source and your ear canal, unwanted background noise is blocked out while the music comes straight in.

They provide a comfortable fit thanks to the three sizes of three different included sleeves--orange foam, clear and gray flex. Experiment with the size and style that creates the best fit for you--a good seal is key to optimizing sound isolation and bass response as well as maximizing comfort during extended wear. A durable and compact carrying case is included with the SCL2 to provide a convenient, tangle-free solution to store your earphones.

Sound Isolating Technology

Headphones generally enclose your ear or rest on top of it. Regular earphones (like the earbuds often packaged with CD players) sit on the outside of the ear. Sound isolating earphones are different. They are designed to fit inside your ear canal, where they create an isolated listening area that is responsible for their superior acoustic properties.

Sound isolating earphones were originally developed as Personal Monitor Systems to allow musicians to hear their own performances in loud onstage environments. Sound isolating earphones work by using soft, pliable sleeves to block background noise, allowing small, high-performance drivers to deliver incredibly precise sound directly to the ear.

Is isolation different from noise cancellation?
The seal created by a sound isolating earphone physically blocks most frequencies of background noise. Active noise cancellation headphones are generally larger, heavier and battery-driven. The active cancellation process negates selected frequencies through a complex process that can even introduce unwanted artifacts into the resulting audio. The natural sound isolation properties of a properly fitted in ear earphone exceeds the performance of even the most expensive active noise cancellation alternatives.

How do in ear sound isolating earphones work?
By selecting from an assortment of included soft, flexible sleeves, you're able to personalize the fit of the earphones to your ears. The sleeves conform to the unique shape of your ear, creating a seal that isolates you from ambient noise.

Why is isolation important?
Sound isolation makes it possible to hear greater detail at a lower volume than is possible with earbuds or most headphones intended for portable use. Lower-volume listening means less fatigue over extended periods and is safer than trying to overcome background noise by turning up the volume. This makes sound isolating earphones the ideal choice for commuting, travel, exercise, study, or work--any activity where you desire portable, hi-fidelity sound.

5 out of 5 stars excellent earphones   May 11, 2010
Mark A. Vendemia (DC)
2 out of 2 found this review helpful

I purchased this shure ear phones and even though I am no expert in music I have never heard such great sounds come from my IPOD. I would certainly recomend these ear phones to anyone wanting a great sound for decent price - $90 or so... I had problems keeping it in my ear because I needed smaller rubber pieces and Shure sent me a huge bag for free of all sizes and types of ear pieces... what a great company....


1 out of 5 stars shure scl2 very uncomfortable   May 4, 2010
Charles Tompkin
0 out of 2 found this review helpful

I found that it is very hard to get these headphones to stay in my ears. I can get them in there and the music sounds pretty decent but then a couple minutes later they will just pop right out of my ear canal. (and I have tried all of the included sleeves including foam ones which were a lot better but still would eventually just pop right out.) I found myself constantly fiddling with them once I put them in.

I also would like to say that I found these very uncomfortable, and I could only keep them in for very short periods of time. You are supposed to place the sleeve into your ear canal, and then turn them so that the hard plastic part wedges in your ear and holds them in place, which is actually a pretty good design until a few minutes later when you realize how uncomfortable they really are. I bought them last night and had them in for an hour or so and my ears were very sore when I took them out. They are still sore a day later.

When I was looking on amazon for a good pair of in ear phones I chose these because of all the high ratings. Hopefully this review will get through to someone on here and steer them away. I really wanted these to work, I like the look of them and Shure seems like a great company, but seriously I could not keep a pair of earphones that are this unpleasant to wear. I am now in the market for a nice pair of over the ear phones, they seem to be the most comfortable style, and to me comfort is a number one priority.




5 out of 5 stars The ONLY ones that will stay in my ears during cardio-exercise!!!   March 26, 2010
J. Johnson (Columbia, SC)
While I thought these were a little expensive I was willing to try yet another set of earphones that I hoped would stay in my ears during exercise! Not only do they always stay in, they are FANTASTIC regarding sound quality. They block out background noise VERY well, when I'm in the gym on machines they block out people next to me talking as well as background noise. GREAT for running, they really do stay in with the use of the included large foam attachments. You just escape with the music (or audiobooks on my Ipod)!! Worth every single dollar I paid, no doubt about it. Excellent base. Kudos to the designer of these SCL2's, they are simply great and I will stick with them.


5 out of 5 stars Great pair of ear buds   February 1, 2010
The Raubinger's (MI, USA)
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I've had a pair of these ear buds before that I borrowed from a friend and finally got a pair of my own. These headphones do a fabulous job of blocking outside sounds, perfect for airplanes and bus rides. They also come with several pairs of rubber and foam cushions to fit your ear in the best way. My only gripe is that the small carrying case is too small in my opinion; I think it could stand to be a bit bigger so the buds don't have to be squished inside.

These earbuds sound great for the money. Only issue is fit. I have a pair of E4C in ear earbuds from Shure that fit great when used with the triple flanged adapters. These would rank 4 starts if the triple flanged adapters would fit them, but they don't. Don't understand making the post on this line a different size. I probably would not have purchased them if I had known. My mistake. Make posts for all lines uniform and all adapters would fit. A perfect fit for me is not available.
