Unhappy Shure E2C's too big - suggestions please!

Not a happy bunny!
After much research and shopping around I bought a set of Shure E2C in ear headphones for use with my Video IPod.
Sound is great!
Can I get them to stay in? :
I've tried all the smaller adapters and still can't get them to stay in. My ears are just too small. I've had this problem with Bluetooth headsets and now use the Jabra over the ear one with the adpater that goes in to the ear canal but is not wedged in there!
I'm looking for recommendations for similar style ear phones ie ones that don't rely on the fit in the ear canal to keep them in place but still have good sound isolation.
Something like - Audio Technica ATH-EC7 Earphones?

I had a bit of trouble with my Shure E4C's for a while until I came across this thread on Head-Fi.

The Sony buds seem to sit in your ear canal rather than go all the way down and I have a nice snug fit now. May be worth a try before you buy a new set of earphones...
