Paradigm Shift e3m Headphones White

I purchased this about a year ago from Singapore at sgd $180 , which is almost equivalent to the retail price in the U.S. (almost) But i lost it about 8 months later, and well, things went kinda downhill, tried a few other brands but none came close to the sheer amount of bass the paradigm shift e3m gave. Then weeks ago, i found this, and i thought 'its $29.90, why not?' but the price sure gave me a heart attack. I got 2 shipped over. And as i opened the box, the packaging was the same, and it gave me the same quality my first pair gave. So if this is not the real deal, i don't know what is ! Main thing is WAYYY DISCOUNTED PRICE for a earphone that has bass that stands up to PARADIGM

I'll keep this short and sweet. I am a very very picky listener I have thousands of dollars invested between my car and my home stereo systems. So it was essential to get a solid and good sounding pair of headphones.Pros: Great bass, taught and punchy. Relaxed treble that is all day listenable and never harsh, though some may consider it dark sounding. Nice looking cosmeticallyCons: They WILL NOT stay in your ears. Even sitting still it is necessary to push them back into place every few minutes. I got used to it because I enjoyed the sound so much. Also the plastic surrounds cut into my ears and become uncomfortable after about 30 minutes. Again I tolerated it because they sounded so sweet. I got these Sept 29th 2014, and one ear went dead totally about March 1st 2015. Thats absurd for a 130$ pair of earbuds.I would recommend looking elsewhere for ear buds. These sound so good but just don't have the fit or build quality.

Great value and they work well and sound well. After I bought these from AudioLab in Fairless Hills PA, I ended up visiting their store and buying other products from them. Top marks for the vendor!

Very impressed with the quality. Comparable to my Bose with better fit.

Great all around earphone. Over-priced if you have to pay full price.

Good sound but they will not stay in my ear, annoying! so kind of useless!

I go through a lot of headphones and earphones. I usually have earbuds in a minimum of 4 hours a day and many nights. These are one of the best I've used and I've had many quality buds and phones ( Hifiman, Polk, Shure, Senn, Lstn, etc).These aren't bass heavy and have a very 'clean' enjoyable sound. They aren't hard to listen to (if that makes sense) and fit nicely in the ear. They also don't stick way out of your ear. That's important to me when I listen at night. If I fall asleep with them they don't jam into my ears and wake me up. They seem very well made. The left side cable on mine have a snag in the cloth and now the cable is exposed, but that was something I noticed when I first received them but was too lazy to exchange them, and now I like them too much to be without them. I think the snag was just something that slipped by quality control and isn't something that happens often. It's cosmetic and not really a problem--doesn't effect the sound. These are my favorite earphones and are the ones I grab 90% of the time. If you want to experience your music the way it was intended to be, these are a great choice. If you are a bass head or love your Beats headphones you won't appreciate these.

First rate sound quality. Seriously. Clear, clear, clear and robust, full range sound, with no thin spots or over emphasisBuild quality is amazing at this price point, ($10 now, I paid $20 when I bought mine and they were a great value then)For those who complain about them falling out I'd suggest running the cord behind the ear and over the top of the earlobe. Works for me and they haven't fallen out once since I started wearing them that wayIf there is a flaw its that anything that rubs against the cord creates a pronounced scuffing noise that is transmitted directly to the ear. Not a problem if you're sitting quietly but kind of big deal if you want to use these on the go. That's a shame as the tough cords and solid fittings would otherwise make these ideal for outdoor useStill, they're tough, they sound great and they're a steal at these prices

Excellent pair!I was hooked on the a-jays since 2011, wanted to upgrade so tried Bose Soundtrue Ultra, Sennheiser Momentum,JVC and even Beats!The Paradigm E3 were recommended by a guy at the music store, I had never heard of the make and I'm amazed at how brilliant they sound., although sound reception is quite subjective.I quite enjoy the bass and the surround sound experience, might not work for everyone. But for me listening to music is a treat, works with all genres. The fabric cable makes it really light, so I can workout in these. Sound isolation is quite good too, blocks out most traffic noise (unless it's a transportation truck). I even ordered a pair for my girlfriend, recommended to a few friend and got a back up pair for myself.The back up pair unfortunately got lost in transit, but the seller was kind enough post another one (hopefully it will arrive soon).So to sum it up, BUY THEM.

These earspeakers as Paradigm call them are the very best I have ever heard and well made, they are tuend to there top of the range speakers, and the sound reall wonderful to listen to. Thank you to the seller arrived early and in great condition nicely packed , thank .
