The Bottom Line	Shure's E4c earbuds are simply the best in-ear headphones we've ever heard.	The Klipsch Image S4 earphones offer up sound quality on par with and better than sets that cost many times as much; they are a spectacular choice for anyone looking for new earbuds.	Travel-happy audiophiles will be infinitely pleased with the Shure SE530s, but these earbuds should also be a consideration for anyone who has half a grand to drop on some sweet headphones.	Looking for the best in-ear headphones that money can buy? You've found them in the custom-molded Ultimate Ears UE-10 Pros.	The Bose In-Ear Headphones are a hybrid set, falling right between regular earbuds and canalphones. They don't block out noise, but they do provide much more bass than stock earbuds--almost too much, in fact.
