these retail at £30 nd they say they are noise isolating and give superb sound quailty plus they go deep in your ear. what with the shure e2c being around £70 i take they are not as good as them but do they still isolate sound like the shure earphones do?

1) They're Phillips, not Panasonic
2) No they don't isolate like the Shure or Etymotic - which provide near total isolation, which can be dangerous - but they do isolate like the Sony EX71 series.

If you want a good headphone with some isolation, then these are (in my humble opinion) the best low cost options

Cheap: Sennheiser CX 300 (£31.95)

Inexpensive, but not cheap: Panasonic RP HJE70 (£45.25)

Good value: Audio Technica ATH CK7 ($115)

All of these equal, or are superior to, the Shure E2/3, Etymotic ER6 or Ultimate Ears Super.Fi 3.

These phones also available in white color! It's name is Philips SHE9501. I paid US$21.90 in warehouse123.com! Very Nice in-ear For The Money$! I also find them selling the Audio Technica ATH-CK7 for $99! Good deal! The ATH-CK7 provide good isolation and excellent sound performance! Very nice!

I changed CX300s from MX550s. The sound quality is incredible, the detail is much better! "I love 'em!"
