Inside each Shure SCL5 earphone, dual speakers provide a quality of sound that rivals that of expensive studio headphones creating full-bodied bass, natural mids and precise highs. Also features a spacious soundstage that sounds more like speakers, like the earphones professionals use on stages the world over.

* Sound Isolating Design * Speaker Type: Dual Live Performance Drivers with Inline Crossover * Lightweight Design: Just over 1 oz (31g) * Memory-Fit Cable * 2-Year Limited Warranty

The SCL5 earphones, along with the SE530 and SE420, are Shure's top-of-the-line earphones which delivers the same reference quality audio enjoyed by professional musicians. Dual Live Performance Drivers coupled with an Inline Crossover faithfully reproduce precision highs, natural mids, and full-bodied bass -- ideal for enhancing your listening experience with portable MP3, DVD, and CD players as well as all other audio sources.

Sound Isolating Technology

The Shure SCL5's in ear design works like an earplug to block background noise naturally. This enables you to listen comfortably at lower volumes -- even in loud environments. And unlike bulky headphones utilizing active noise cancellation technology, no artifacts are introduced into your listening experience. Sound isolating earphones are also much smaller and don't require batteries.

Speaker Type: Dual Live Performance Drivers with Inline Crossover

The Shure SCL5 earphones embody Shure's highest-quality construction. Dual Live Performance Drivers coupled with an Inline Crossover create the same reference quality audio developed for professional musicians. The result of dedicated speakers for highs and lows is the faithful reproduction of precision highs, natural mids, and full-bodied bass.

Personal Fit Kit

Because every ear is different, the SCL5 Earphones come with a pair of disposable Foam Sleeves, a pair of Triple Flange Sleeves, three pairs (small, medium, large) of Flex Sleeves, and three pairs (small, medium, large) of Soft Flex Sleeves to ensure a personalized fit.

Secure In Ear Design

The soft, flexible sleeves in the Fit Kit gently contour to the inside of your ear to create a comfortable, secure fit, so that the earphones don't fall out while you're exercising. The SCL5 earphone is also compatible with custom-molded sleeves, made by a hearing specialist, for the ultimate in fit and comfort.

Memory-Fit Earphone Cables

Once formed, the SCL5 earphone's cables retain their shape around the ear, allowing for a more convenient, comfortable, and secure fit. The Shure SCL5's cables pass behind the ear -- out of sight and out of the way -- for a refined, discreet appearance.

Lightweight Construction

Weighing only 1.1 oz (31g), the Shure SCL5 is lightweight and secure enough for any portable listening application.

Earphones Carrying Case

The Shure SCL5 comes with a stylish, compact carrying case. The case provides a convenient, tangle-free solution to store your earphones.

Two-Year Limited Warranty

Every Shure SCL5 purchased from EarphoneSolutions.com comes with a two-year limited warranty on materials and workmanship.

Nice Features
By Rick D on March 30, 2009
Comments: The SCL5 features have a couple of nice features, 1) They stay in your ears nicely, 2) The cord is longer than most. The SCL5 is a very big disappointment when it comes to sound quality though. I was expecting some bass out of these, but they don't produce as much bass as the headphones that came with my iPod. These headphone are not worth anywhere near the $400 they sell for.

Great sound
By Christian on March 26, 2009
Comments: Very clean sound, love the memory wire, not as much sound isolation than the E4 but better sounding.

tasty, but curious
By kekoa on February 21, 2009
Comments: got a smoking deal for these head phones. No one can touch Earphone Solutions' price for Shure. I play drums in a band and plan to use the SCL5s for in-ear monitors in addition to using them in the ole ipod. Looking forward to getting custom molds made. Still with all the ranting and raving about the se530s I personally would like to hear how they compare to the SCL5s. What ultimately sold me on the SCL5 was a review stating how they convey the raw sound of the music vs. making the songs sound better/produced. Something I assume the SE530 does. so in the end they're tasty, but I remain curious

SCL5 a cheaper, better alternative to the SE420
By Bryant on October 20, 2008
Comments: I ordered the SCL5 from EarphoneSolutions for portable studio work (podcasts, video editing, et al.) and compared it to a pair of SE420 canalphones from a friend after sanitizing them thoroughly. My conclusion: The SE420 has slightly bolder mids, but overall, sound replication (to my ears) seemed more balanced with the SCL5 than with the SE420, and I have a theory as to why this is the case. The SCL5 and other SCL models are advertised as personal monitors as opposed to consumer canalphones, which means there's the possibility that the SE series consumer canalphones may be designed more better-sounding music as opposed to accurate sound replication. I have a few major gripes ("but Bryant! Why did you give these earphones a 5 star rating if you have major gripes?" I'll get to that): 1) It's very tough to fit the earphones into the provided case, which makes fitting them into the circular case a scary ordeal. Giving the guys at Shure a buzz and asking if they can fire off an oval case may help, though I don't have an oval case to test with the SCL5 at the moment. 2) The factory-sealed manual in my factory-sealed SCL5 box said that the SCL5 would come with the airline adapter, which was false. Given that this was stated in the manual of a factory-sealed pair of SCL5 canalphoness, Shure has opted to send the airline adapter to me separately, free of charge. Bad that it wasn't included, but good that Shure jumped right on the ball and decided to send it! Now, as for the pros: 1) Sound. There's simply no word to describe it. I used these on my Sony PCM-D50 and the sound I heard through my SCL5 was exactly the way it was recorded. These are wonderful for people who are willing to put forth an investment for blogging, podcast work, or anything similar. Even if the mids may seem low for people who are used to consumer canalphones designed to enhance music playback, these are wonderful for any professional media work, vocals or otherwise. Everything, to my ears, was wonderfully balanced. 2) Sound isolation. I have yet to use these on a plane (I will have the chance to do so less than a week after this review) but I used them on the DC Metro. During some of the loudest stretches of tunnel, I never noticed anything other than my music. That's not to say some sound didn't get in; I still heard a muffled voice announcing the next stop when the music was off, but with music playing, hearing anything other than the music was close to impossible. 3) Comfort. These are good for use either with music playing or without. They didn't bother my ears whatsoever during my two-hour metro trips, and they fit perfectly within my ears. For those of you with ears which are oddly-shaped, these will most likely still fit without any issues as they're smaller than some of the other canalphones out there. Combined with the sound isolation, it's quite easy to fall asleep with these in your ears simply because you forget they're even there. 4) The memory wire. Lots of people see the memory wire as a gripe, but I've found that the memory wire does two things: It keeps the canalphones hooked to my ears when my ears are against something, and it seems to be good insurance against what seems to be Shure's "cable crack" issue (a problem with my old e2c canalphones which led to the plastic wire coating above both of my ears to crack, though the wires were still intact) Why did I give this a 5 star rating? Simple: Shure's customer service thus far made up for any usage gripes, and the sound is so mind-bogglingly amazing that it's worth the step up from any other canalphones, including the SCL4 or the SE310 and especially anything lower such as the e2c or the SE110. If you're deciding between the SCL5 and the SE420, I'll suggest the SCL5. If you know your stuff, you might even be able to get them for a ridiculous 25% off from EarphoneSolutions.

Save your ears
By Rob on November 23, 2007
Comments: I have been in a working band for years and have suffered an abnormal amount of hearing loss. I have used Shure E5's now for 2-1/2 years and have not experienced any additional loss of hearing. Every single time I wear them, I am more amazed at how great they sound. For even more isolation, I suggest personal molds. Any audiologist can fit you for them. If you experience pain wearing the E5's, You WILL LOVE THE MOLDS!!

KIng of Pain
By no quiero a decir on July 30, 2007
Comments: These things sound ok. They are worth the price. But here are the problems. Once the cable gives out one must send the whole phone system to Shure to fix the cable. The wire that is supposed to fit around one's ears is a pain. All day long I have to keep adjusting the cord and ear phones. The second perspiration hits the cord it sticks to one's body like a cheap polyester suit. If alcohol or cologne hits the earphones they will fall apart. after about a year of constant usage the cord becomes so hard and brittle that it all but snaps on the touch. The cross over is like having a ball and chain around your neck with in 20 minutes of usage. The sound. Well the sound is very good if not great. But just as the two year guaranteed ends the connections of the 1/8 input starts to fail. What you are left with is noise, hisses, pops, and no sound at all. If you want your ear's to swell and to adjust the cord as you walk or run down the street buy these things. I am moving on to Westone. Why? When the cord gives out I send them 36 dollars and get a new one. As Westone says I can keep the sound going without having to ship the whole phone system to Shure! Shure is not making a poor product. I still own 2 pair. One that has to be sent in for repair and a new pair. The problems with the cord, crossover, and ear pain that results form the constant movement of the memory wire are physical problem that may not have a solution. Westone knows that. So they make cord replacement easy.

Comments: I have had mine for about 2 years now. They still make my jaw drop at how low the bass goes ... but you must use the triple flange sleaves. What can I say ... one of the best audio purchases I have made ... music to my ears. BTW ... the down side of these are ... you may not like to listen to .mp3 anymore and have to load your MP3 player with all .wav files.


By Osman Vefa Aydogan on April 10, 2006
Comments: Dear Friends; You'd better buy UM2, because price/perf. is much better and UM2 has a greater BASS. Okay, this is a great one too, but Westone did a greater job.


By ross on March 7, 2006
Comments: i have owned these for a few months now, and i gotta say they are really something special. but i admit it's a lot of money to pay, i got mine for about £250, which isn't bad for them. they are seriously comfy and the sound is excellent, as is the isolation. but 1 thing, be prepared for everyone you know to ask you for a listen, and also people asking if your mad, but you don't have to listen to them as they block out lots of noise, i mean lots!!

By Joe Roman on February 27, 2006
Comments: I first bought the Etymotic 6i, sounded great, but no low end, and a really thin cable that always tangled up. Eventually the right wire crapped out. Then, I bought the Superfi 5Pro, nice sound, but same thin cable problems, sent them back for the Shure E5c......expensive, but worth it!! Thick cable, no tangles, incredible low end, and a sweet, warm sound. Highly recommended.


By Johnny & Tammy, Oklahoma City on February 14, 2006
Comments: We truly enjoy this product. We have done away with all stage monitors and all instrument amplifiers therefore eliminating all feedback. We highly recommend to anyone with a band, as cargo space is greatly reduced.

By Ron on December 6, 2005
Comments: If you have the money to blow, get these. Unless you have a very discernable ear, the sound doesn't justify the $520 pricetag. Go with the e3c's.


By Sherry Ruppel on November 22, 2005
Comments: THESE EARPHONES HAVE LEFT ME SPEECHLESS, AND THAT IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE!! BETTER THAN ANYTHING THAT I'VE EVER USED!! THANKS FOR YOUR AWESOME SERVICE, YOU GUYS ARE SIMPLY THE BEST !!!


By Ron Steadman on September 23, 2005
Comments: For those who don't know, Westone CREATED AND manufactured for Shure the E5c for the first years. After that Shure decided to have them manufactured somewhere else (probably in Asia). The UM2 was the original project and Shure wanted to enhance the bass, enhance the highs, in other words, alter the sound to what they think was good. For that reason Westone had to enlarge the crossover and put that where the cable splits. Because of all the "enhancements" the cross over ended up being so large that thicker cables were requested by Shure. The E5c is the "Frankenstein" and the UM2 is the original art work. I like my E5c but the UM2 is better in every regard. If you want, you can have your own "enhancements" via EQ but all the range will be there to be explored. The E5c is already altered and it's more limited to what you can output.

Comments: I am writing this while listen to music using E5c. The bass is somewhat lacking (compairs to the Westones UM2). The high frequency is TOO high to the extend to be uncomfortable to listen to. If I don't have UM2 to compair with I maybe will give this E5C a 5 star but to be honest UM2 sounds much better. Although the bulid quality of E5C looks better and the cord feels much stronger than UM2. If you don't want to pay for over the top price, E3C is a very good alternative.

Comments: I initially bought the Etymotic ER-6i's but found that they lacked bass. I tried every way possible to get a good seal but no luck. I thought the standard iPod phones bass sounded better (I used to play bass guitar in a rock band so maybe I have some frequency loss). So I returned them to earphonesolutions and asked Flavio T. for his opinion. I was reluctant to spend the money on the E5's after being disappointed with the ER-6i's but decided to go ahead anyway. It was a great decision! The sound is extremely clear, bass is there and strong like you would like it to be but most unusual is hearing sounds I never heard before through my stereo system or Bose noise cancelling headphones. It is almost as if you are there at the sound studio.

Comments: There is nothing I can say about the sound of these heaphones that hasn't been said already, they do sound amazing. The reason I felt the need to write this review is because I had this problem with them. I have been using in-ear headphones for years, like the Sony MDR-EX71SL which are absolutely stunning for a very low price and the highly acclaimed Etymotic ER-4S. I always felt very comfortable wearing them even for several hours at a time. However, the E5c make my ears hurt after less than one hour. If I leave them any longer, my ear-drum gets sore, but when I switch to my other headphones, I have no problem. I don't know why this happens, but I felt I had to mention this.

By Ferran on July 19, 2005
Comments: I've just tried them out and by the moment I am not disappointed at all. They sound very good and full. I also own the Etymotic ER-6i and I'm one of those who think they lack bass; it's not the case of the E5C. These headphones seem very well built, with thick cables and no fragile parts. When I use them a few days I will write something more about how they sound, but by now I can say that the E5C may be the best choice to really enjoy music in noisy places like planes or underground. If you can aford them of course!

By MILES FUSCO on July 2, 2005
Comments: Exquisite is the only word for these phones: the most natural, uncolored sound I've experienced because of the tiny dual transducers contained therein. Even better than listening to great speakers because of the sound isolating characteristics. Easy to place in ear with a little common sense and patient adjustment.

Comments: Just to let you know, the Shure E5’s got better like you said they would. It fortunately did not take me 2 weeks but only 1 hour. I just needed some patience and I figured out the trick. It was pulling my ear out from the lower/middle area and the e5’s went in to make a better seal. They are unbelievable sounding right out of my Ipod!. I want to thank you for all the time you spent with me. This has been the best internet buying experience yet! Thanks again. Bob.

The SCL5 has dual drivers with awesome sound quality and excellent bass. It also has an excellent comfort and fit (the memory wire that goes behind the ear has lovers and haters).

If you are looking for an earphone that does not need to stay flush in the ear, the 5PRO has a superior sound for half the price.

The SCL5 lacks mid range (or has emphasized highs and lows -- whichever way you want to see it -- in relation to the mids).

It comes with a no hassle 2 year warranty by Shure when purchased from Earphone Solutions. A great option for stage monitoring (professional musicians) and not so great for an iPod due to its weaker mids but still an excellent option nevertheless.

Best for musicians looking for stage monitoring of their instruments or vocals. Still a great choice for portable MP3 players but lacking presence in the mid range.
