Aside from all the Audiophile speak, they sound great (but at the cost you would expect that) and, for me, it is extremely comfortable (i honestly cant wear normal earbuds).
Look at some of the stuff from ultimate ears, from what ive heard they seem to sound just as good for less cost (although this is not my opinion, as i have not personally tested them).
If you can, go in and test each earphone yourself as certain headphones may sound better to you and may 'favour' some forms of music better.

Oh, and HeadRoom love 'em: http://www.headphone.com/products/he.../shure-e4c.php

i always wondered..do they go all the way in your ear? doesnt that hurt after some time?
