Wow, that was a long but very good read, HeadphoneAddict.

I especially like that you have found that the W3 will be just as good as the source so that good amps will also shine with them.

Awesome review. I can't wait to go back to HK and audition the TF10 and UM3 side by side as my next upgrade.

Headphoneaddict, did you ever try custom tips with the TF10? I'm considering getting a pair for my SF5pro because its not too expensive to do so, and was wondering how they would affect the TF10. Whichever one I end up getting, however, I definitely will go for custom tips.

I want my Westone 3's. NOW. Stoooopid USPS tracking doesn't tell me where it is after leaving the USA.

Last time I ordered from ES and chose the free USPS shipping option, it took five f***** weeks until it finally arrived here in Germany. That's why I went for pricey Fedex this time. I hope you have more luck.

This is the longest article i had read in probably 2 years. Seriously long and definitely not for faint-hearted or those tl;dr guys.

I even lost track twice while reading it!

Great review HA. Now i need to look for my wallet and do some serious accounting.

I had US Dollars in my Paypal which was enough to pay the full USD$400 for it. Lol. I wish Australians had discounts.

I paid for USPS Express International for mine via Freq City. $8 upgrade. I see why not. Lol.

This has to be your best and most "felt" write-up ever, Larry. It was a pleasure to read it.

You the difference between Westone 3 and Triple.Fi is THAT noticeable?
It's not like something subtle, but a "new league"?

well thats clinched it; as if I needed convincing great review HA looooooooooooonnnnnnngggggg but great. I hate you well my wallet hates you anyway so give me and my USD a couple of weeks and they are mine mine babay mine. perfect treat for my new baby the VCAP. though I dont kjnow if I can get rid of my SE530 i'm loving them at the moment. the soundstage this dock brings is too much for an IEM. cant wait for the W3 synergy.

some guys maybe need a cooldown check the W3 threads on jaben. Most of the people hearing it were not that fascinated. they were more dissapointed and could also write down why

Thanks for the review HA!

I've had my 3s since Saturday and have been listening non-stop. It's safe to say my Denon C551s will be up for sale very very soon. Will need to write down my thoughts and add to this thread.

Most of us have read through the jaben thread and we don't really care about their opinions.
