Beefed up the article drastically in order to concisely explain that Shure is not just a purveyor of Microphones and Phono Cartridges, but also professional, high-end sound. Also, the company is named after an audiophile named Sidney Shure, who is succeeded by Rose Shure.

--Added information to the earphone section; inserted notes on the E1c, proper use, history, and sound quality rivalry with other companies.

[edit] Battle of the Sleeves

This post applies only to the sleeves that can be used for the E3, E4, and E5.

  • Very soft flex sleeves (Grey): Moderate sound isolation/dampening, very powerful sound detail, excellent comfort
  • Clear Soft Sleeves: Questionable Sound Detail, best sound isolation/dampening, somewhat uncomfortable to use
  • Triple-Flange Sleeves: Most comfortable, not-so-good sound isolation/dampening, somewhat good sound detail
  • Foam Sleeves: Beginner-friendly, high learning curve, good sound detail, very powerful sound isolation/dampening
