    Ultimate Ears Triple Fi 10 Thread

      Just out of curiosity, where did you get the custom tips and how much do they cost?     As for the TF10's vs TF10 Pro's, I bought mine back when they were the pros and a few months back the original cable broke just before the connector. After emailing UE since you can't order some...

    Non-audiophile reactions to high-end headphones

    Quote: It's one of those things that people don't expect something so small to be so good, so they don't draw attention. But if someone has a large pair of around-ear headphones, they will draw more attention than IEMs purely based on size when they may only like 40 bucks. When I take...

    Non-audiophile reactions to high-end headphones

      Quote:   I completely agree, I bet most people think their's are better, and almsot everyone has no clue how much they cost. Although my set up is very simple with my TF10 straight out of my iPod, I enjoy the feeling that I'm enjoying good sounding music, and yet no one around me has...

    Quote: I thought so, I was always wondering how long it would be until I saw someone with a real set up during my commutes into the city

    Non-audiophile reactions to high-end headphones

    Yesterday on the train to work in the morning there was a guy with ATH-AD700's, an LOD to an amp from one of the first gen iPod's (with the 4 buttons below the screen). I couldn't tell what the amp was since it looked like it was a silicon case that held both his iPod and the amp, but the amps...

    Non-audiophile reactions to high-end headphones

    That's what I enjoy about going the store I do in Toronto since they carry high end stuff and actually know what they're talking about. Since the girl that helped me when I got my UE's, had SE530's and TF10's (probably got discounts from working there). I'm always amused when go into Best Buy or...

    A guy had Studio beats on the train into work this morning. Then when I got off the train saw a pair of HD595's in the train station on my way to work, a few pairs of porta pros, and Senn Px100's, made my dad better.

    Gonna save up for TripleFi10,will I notice a difference?

    I've had the TF10's for almost 3 years now, and I use them with a penguin caffeine amp (it was like $80 CAD). I've noticed a difference with them, there is a little more bass and the isn't just there more but it's definitely better quality base. Also to me it crisps up the sound and overall does...

      Quote:   That's what I always thought, when my friends have a hobby that I may not be interested in, I show some interest, and I don't tell them their crazy. Where as they all think I'm nuts and I've only bought TF10's, and one penguin amp, so nothing compared to most people on here...
