I've been using an IEM called Denon AH-C551 for years now. I used the Triple Fi's for a while, but didn't really like the sound and fit.   Looking for recommendations of an IEM with these specifications:        Dynamic Driver        Small Size (around the size of monster turbines or...

Is it possible to use SD cards in the iPod Mini? I know you could put cf cards in, but if I use a cf to sd converter, will the iPod recognize it?

Quote: How did you make your cables' pin look like that!? I made my own cable, and did a pretty bad looking job on making that pin that connects to the actual 10pro's. Anyway, nice cables. 

Bad soldering made my cable's right sound lower than the left. And I completely covered and burnt my plug with my bad soldering skills.    I think the Neutrick one's are the best. I used the silver REAN branded gold-plated straight plug.     The Oyaide one's are really popular in Japan...

Yeah, it might be hard to find one NEW. But the TF-10's sound is probably not what you're looking for... It's on the bassy side although I don't think so.

The ATH-CK10's seem like a good IEM for you. Try to find one in these forums.    TF-10's are real easy to come by on these forums for under $150. I got one for $145 with international shipping included :) You can buy new cables, or make them on your own. I managed to make one on my own...

  Quote: Same thing happened to me. You get used to it. Make sure to do the flip-mod.   Just made some new cables for mine, since the wire inside the older one's broke.  The new cables are waaay better than the stock one's! 

Thanks for the tip. I guess I'll skip the amp for now. I might make my own cable for TF-10's after the original ones break...

Did those portable amps give you better sound?   I tried using EQu, but I've never messed with EQ settings before, so I don't really know how to get the right sound. (Sometimes I'm able to tune it to my preference, but it's different for each genre of music...)   Do you know any guides...

I've bought the best IEM's I could manage to buy with my money: the TF-10's. I'm using the IEM's with my 4th gen iPod touch 32GB with a growing library of Apple Lossless music.   I was wondering if a Portable Amp through a LOD would be worth the money.   Will it give me another 'wow'...

Aren't there LODs that doesn't make the warning messages appear?

The IEMs you've chosen are relatively flat earphones. I listen to the same kind of hip-hop music as you, and I must admit, that I was hesitated of the sound when I got Etymotic ER-6 (which are another flat sounding IEM).   I own TF-10's right now, and I am pretty satisfied with the overall...

You listen to the same kind of songs as me. I'm looking for earphones that suits my genres also. Bought the TF-10's, but they just don't cut it. The bass is probably too light for your preference.    I'm looking to buy the IE8 or Monster Turbine Pro Golds.

If it fits well to you then I think you're alright. I never got a seal with the stock tips on my right ear, so I got the Sony Hybrid XS size tips. Plus, the flip mod really helped me have a good fit.

I'm kinda interested in the new DDM's, but they're too expensive. Wish I would be able to actually listen to them.

Hey, you started with the same IEM as me, the Denon AH-C551! I know how you feel. I think I had the exact same feeling as you when I got those. It was 100% better than my Apple earbuds. I've bought a Ultimate Ears Super.fi 3's a few months after I got the Denon's, and sad to say, I never...

Quote: I wish these IEM's were cheaper. I got the TF10's for $145 while the the Monster's and IE8's cost around $200.

Quote: I would like to have a little bit of experience in DIY cabling to prepare for my TF10 cables once they break.   Um, what would be the market price for a used iBasso T3?    

Thanks for the info again.   I think I'm towards the iBasso T3 or T3D. Is there a difference between the sound of the two?  What would a market price for a used iBasso T3 or T3D?(I can't seem to find any in the sale forums right now.)   I just noticed that I would have to get a LOD...

Quote: Thanks for the tips, guys. The Soundmagic A10 and the Fiio E11 aren't out yet right? I definitely like the look of the T3 and E11.   Just to note, I am re-encoding all my songs to Apple Lossless right now.  

I'm going to enter the amp world for my TF10's. What would be a solid portable earphone amp to go with an iPod touch 4G for around $100?

Quote: Well, the triple.fi's feel to analytical to me. I like IEM's that are more fun. Deep bass is what I want I guess.  

I have the UE Triple.fi 10 Pro's right now, and I was just thinking about switching to the IE8 since I never got fond of the BA sound. I never liked the Westone 3's and Shure SE535's because they just sound too neutral to me.   But overall, the Triple.fi's are so cheap compared to the...

I've had the Triple.fi 10's for about 3 months now, but I could never appreciate its sound. It sounds amazing when I listen in my bed, but it just doesn't sound good when I'm on a train to school.   I guess that I prefer the dynamic IEM's fun sound. What would be one of the top-tier IEM's? I...

I just bought the SONY hybrids S size, but they don't fit on my Triple.fi's.   Does the SONY hybrids really fit the triple.fi's?
