Use the Comply tips!    Quote:    

I just got my TF10's after losing my Super Fi 5's.  Honestly they sound pretty similar with the 10's having a little better clarity and the 5's having a little more "punch".  Both are great though.  The only downside is that I must use the comply foams as I have small ear canals and none of the...

Yes I was referring to the Brainwavz Betas.  I understand the technology is completely different but is the sound quality really 4-5X better or is it a case of diminishing returns?   Quote:  

How are the triples compared to the Super Fi 5 Pro's?

I got my pair of Betas today in the mail.  Lost my UE SuperFi Pro 5's and needed something to hold me over while I research a new pair.  Initial thoughts, not bad for the price (27 shipped) but nowhere near as good as the UE's.  Build quality is suspect and not much bass but overall good...

How much better are the B2's than the Betas?  Obviously the price is worlds apart but is it a case of diminishing returns or are they really 4-5X better?

About to pull the trigger on either the Beta or M1, what are the differences?  Looks like the M1 has a much nicer cable, any other differences?  Which ones are more comfortable for small ear canals?

Are the betas pretty much the best IEM for under 50 bucks?

Thanks that is an amazing thread and an overwhelming amount of info.  The chart at the bottom is especially useful for a starting point to then go read the reviews.   So far I'm thinking about   Jays Q-Jays (for the small fitment size) Westone 2   Anything else to consider in that...

Quote: Thanks, I'll check out the 600's.  Is the sound quality/build as good as the SuperFi Pro 5's?  The price range is quite affordable.  Any other brands to consider?  Just from a quick browse on the board it seems like the Brainwavz brand is pretty popular?  

I'm not a huge audiophile but I appreciate good quality.  I bought a pair of UE SuperFi Pro 5's about 3 years ago and they've served me well.  I seem to have misplaced them and I'm looking for a replacement.  I was happy with the sound quality of the UE's but they were too big to stay and seal...

I actually found some leftover silicone tips from my Sennheiser CX200's that work great. I had to stretch them a bit over the larger bore of the UE's but they are the right size and about 1 size smaller than the smallest UE's.

I think that's part of the problem. The nozzle/bore thickness is a bit larger than some other brands so even with the smallest UE tips I have to cram them into my small ear canals. Can I use tips from any other brand (sennheiser etc) that have the same bore size but overall smaller diamter?

Does anyone know if there are aftermarket tips available for the UE Super fi 5 Pros? Even the smallest ones they provide don't fit well. The dual flange are the closest to working but still fall out quickly when I'm jogging etc. I need something even smaller that will stay in my ear.

Thanks guys. Does anyone know if the IE8 is the same size physically as the IE7? I can pick up either at a great price as Sennheiser is one of my clients.
