Triple.fi 10's vs Senn IE8

i havent listened to either, but there are 2 huge threads on either one, just search each thread, there should be plenty of comparisons.

I have listened to both an I prefer the IE8 for sound and fit. Now with the sale, the triple.fi's can be remolded by Fisher Hearing and Unique Melody. UM can add an additional driver to the triple.fi's that will make them sound similar to the UE11's.

i definitely prefer my IE8 for my music (seether, alter bridge, red). they have better soundstage, better mids, fuller bass. the only thing that i prefer on the tf10pro is the more sparkly highs.

btw, im also a previous owner of the cowon d2 and i would highly recommend you pair your IE8 with a sony x. SQ difference will be very noticeable

You'll find out for yourself soon enough.

IE8's with Sony EP-EX10A tips trounce the UE's.

I owned the TF10vi's and although they were very capable in all areas (albeit slightly bright on the treble), I prefer the IE8's due to the excellent bass.

To me TF10's = listening to your home sound system through speakers with the equalizer on preset and IE8's = listening to your music at a club.

I cannot believe the difference of sound on the IE8's when upgrading the tips to the Sony EP-EX10A's, if you are using stock buds, seriously, upgrade now it brings the IE8's to another level in quality.

My TF10's cable broke within 60 days and I returned them for a refund. I just hope that Sennheiser or a third party will be producing a mic cable for the IE8's.

Apples to oranges. They are a bit different then each other in sound signature. I would call both quite capable products. Neither really fault in any major way. Both have excellent frequency response range, smoothness of response, presentation, accuracy, etc... They each present the sound in their own flavor. If you're a bass fan, you lean a bit towards the IE8. If your a mid and treble fan, you lean more towards the TF10.

The IE8 has a bigger, more spacious sound stage, but the TF10 is well sized too and offers a greater sense of layering and depth. The IE8 is a little more laid back in presentation, a little softer on note and energy. The TF10 has sparkly treble that comes across limitless in extension. The IE8 does this same effect more so with bass and gains a good visceral sense because it does retain response sensitivity down to the bottom. The TF10 is well extended but drops sharply just before it would gain the visceral sense. It doesn't come across lacking, but the roll off is just early enough to not present the 20Hz to 40Hz range with equal SPL of the higher frequencies. I consider the TF10 to be more refined, more balanced, more even then the IE8. Both suffer from their physical design when wearing them. The TF10 is wide near the tip and can limit insertion and seal. You need a tip that fits you well to make the TF10 work well. The IE8 is somewhat wobbly in the ear. The over-ear guides help some, but I'm not a fan of the ones that come with the IE8. I think Phonak Audio has a more ideal design for over the ear wire guides. The bass knob on the IE8 is somewhat pointless. It simply does the wrong thing. Well it does the right thing but just in the wrong place. It's just that the bass bump starts up in the lower midrange. The bass knob starts affecting output down at 100Hz. It can't help the lower midrange and midbass bump. It pretty much makes the bass even (turned up) or anemic and lacking in extension (turned down). Either way, vocals are bass heavy and warm, the bump stays there. You pretty much just turn it up and leave it.

I like them both for different reasons. I'm listening to the TF10P almost exclusively at the moment but I know that I'll return to the IE8 and enjoy what it has to offer. I'm particularly enjoying the clarity and imaging of the TF10P.

Im probably gonna remold trifi and keeps IE8... but then, I will have 2 Custom and 3 regular IEMs.. >< I have no comment on which one is better since its all preference and depends on the music~

Same situation here, D2+, TF and IE8. For hard rock and metal Triple's are way ahead, in gym IE8's will be better (I guess, I don't use IEMs in gym).

Both are really good, and for me both are keepers.
