I dont have anything to do with these people but I just bought a set of these and they are AWESOME so I wanted to post it over here.

Microphone Solutions is offering the Shure E3 ear canal headphones for $149.00. Here's a direct link to the headphone page:

Use promotional code: F149E3

I was a bit skeptical about how good these were but after comparing them to the Sony EX70s, they are without a doubt much better. They come with a myriad of ear pieces so you can get a good fit and good comfort. I prefer the foam inserts myself.

Thinking about it...how well do you think they'd work for extended sweaty gym sessions?

Thats what Ive been using mine for. I also used the Sony EX71s for the same thing. They seem to be okay. The only snafu with these headphones is that you need to put the cord around your ears. Not a big deal tho since you can snug up the cord under your chin a little.

My only concern is the longevity of the foam inserts in a sweaty enviroment. The rubber inserts should be excellent, just like the Sonys. Im a bit partial to the foam pieces so I hope they hold up okay, if not, theyre pretty cheap to replace I think.
