Shure E2c VS Etymotic ER-6i

[break]

I guess they're in the same price-range... Which one's better? I'm buying a pair to use with iPod, mainly while working out / running.

ER-6i. It might be slightly more money, but better matches the iPod with extension of the lower bass that the iPod is weak with.

The ER-6i's sound much more precise but in no way does it have the low end to compete with the E2c. ER-6i for scratchy artificially-bumped highs, increased precision (but not as much as it appears), higher isolation and tinny lows. E2c for better lows and better overall sound balance, smoother midrange, lower precision, lower isolation and muffled highs.
