Didn't use any of the cables with the TripleFi, used the TripleFi cable with both the FreQ and UE11. If the TripleFi cable fits them, there's no reason their cables couldn't work with the Triple. The need to modify the Triple cable was because the jack on the UE11 is recessed, no modification was needed to fit the jack on the FreQ because it's flush with the shell. The Triple has a flush jack.

What I really want is a Triple.fi 10 vi cable for my Triple.fi 10 pros. Anyone make an aftermarket cable for these for use with an iphone?

I have heard that TF10 with UE custom cable sounds great for lots of times. But the question is where guys like me that don;t have UE11 or 10 get a UE custom calbe.

Thank you so much, man

I wonder if we could sweet talk APureSound into makeing a custom cable that has an iphone button/mic... I've definitely seen a couple of other people who are interested in that

I saw the price kicked up by S$20
lol, the builder must have been flooded with orders...
Headphone/IEM Cable

Luckily I grabbed one before that and loving it.
Mine is slightly different from the one listed though, I got a pair of plastic plugs molded into a rectangular shape instead of round.... Extra clear sleeving also, I guess it increased the stiffness but nevertheless still softer than my stock TF10 cable.

Debating what cable to order between the three... I doubt anyone's done a comparison between the cables.

 

[b00tang]

I'd love to know more about microphonics and comfort with each of the cables too... but I suppose it isn't easy to find someone who has all of these to do comparisons

Mine looked similar to this, with a RA plug though,

The change of sound of this cable over the stock cable is IMMENSE! I have never imagined how does changing a cable could bring so much difference to the sound representation. I used be a non-believer in cables, but this cable transformed me!
Firstly, the most obvious change is sound stage. Greatly enlarged compared to the stock cable in both dimension.
It also brings the originally recessed mid on TF10 more forward while adding slices of details in it. Vocals and jazz nv sounded better on my TF! The bass hits deeper, not too tight but deeper! It is more spread over the place and more detailed as well.

It is slightly thicker than the stock cable, but of great flexibility, no problem putting into the UE carrying case. Microphonic wise, stock cable is better. But as long as I do not swing this cable around it is still within acceptable level.
Update on the microphonic: I tried to run with it today, well, dun bother getting it if you plan to run with your tri.fi

. Anyway, the stock cable doesn't perform well when running either...

Dang, forgot to appreciate the builder of it

Yup, it is from null audio. Ken is a very nice guy to deal with, accommodating all my silly queries

This The 'Enyo' looks nice and is inexpensive

I'll probably order it.

Great review AudioJUNK! It's going to be tough waiting for the APureSound cable after reading your impressions.

But the microphonics issue does not sound good.

Is that cable a solid core one? It does look like so.
