Wouldn't it be cool to make adapters that allow single set of such cables to truly fit with all three types of headphones?

That will be. Although, the adapter would make the cable really bulky and uncomfortable.

Any chance of colour choices, in particular blue for the UE 900?

Any future plans for other colours? I would love a black cable to go with my shures

Okay - My RC-UE2 cable arrived today. Came from Micca, in retail packaging, perfect shape. I'm running them through the paces when I get home later. More to follow... *pumped*

Waiting for impressions

I've spend hundreds of hours listening to my tf10s with the stock cable so I'm fairly confident my brain isn't playing with me when I say the RC-UE2s are a really great upgrade. I say upgrade because the sound signature didn't drastically change but there is a distinct clarity in the low end that wasn't there with the stock cables. There was a volume I could push them to, lets say 5, to get great sound and no clipping on the low end - at 6 the highs and mids were still clean but the low end was a mess. Now they can be used on 6 with no distortion on the low end.

The cable itself seems tough, the angled connectors and shaped (not memory wire) wire around the ear comfortable. The jack is a monster - big, heavy, and all business. The braided design looks better IMO.

This cable is superior in every way to the stock POS the tf10s ship with and for 30 bucks? If you own tf10s and your cable ISN'T broken you should still pick these up. You will fall in love your tf10s all over again.

Why "make the change"? I am not a wires guy and not an electrical engineer so the reported specs do not translate to what makes these wires better than the original.

It depends. I've opened up a shure(SE215's) cable before. It's a rather thin copper wire that's inside, but it feels thick because of the grounding and kelver. Fiio is an improvement in that 1. they are much thicker, and have more actual "wires" in them. 26awg to be more specific. 2. Better quality wire.

How's the sound if my SE215 use the FiiO RC-SE1 cable and the FiiO E11

Depends on what source and what kind of improvement you are looking for. Where are you coming from?

Se215 doesn't need much amping. I say save up and get a better iem.

 

[TimOgawa]

how about replacing the cable with the RC-SE1?

 

[kimvictor]

The upgrade would be minor. I would buy the cable for more of an aesthetic upgrade for se215.
