Another reason in-ear headphones have the upper hand on formal headphones is sound isolation. Sure, you can find noise suppressant headphones like Bose's highly touted QuietComfort2, but even those will produce only a 20-decibel reduction. The Shure E3cs with foam ear insets will almost flat out adjourn all outside noise, offering a 93% sound reduction of 37 decibels. To experience a similar effect, try plugging your ears using your fingers. This is about the degree at which the E3cs eliminate outside sound.

Where did you read 20db? I tried them on and it seemed like a lot more then 20db.
As far as noise reduction gos I'm impressed with how much sound is blocked by the Full Metal Jackets. I didn't buy then for that but I was happy to find that they did block it when using load construction equipment.
