i have the tf10s, in a nutshell both are full range with the tf10s having a recessed midrange, the Tts have a very smooth midrange presentation. soundstage is nearly as good as the tf10s. i have the comply tips on the Tt right now that have the wax guard (bit-o-foam built in) 12 hours on the burn and now in my ears. i do plan on a full 100 hours of burn but thought i'd leave this early impression. mid bass hump, warmish, goes pretty low http://www.sensaphonics.com/?page_id=833 both tones play at nearly the same volume. i have iems that don't do these tones as well that i plan on keeping. initially when i first listened the bass was like the klipsch x10, mids and treble are much more advanced  on the Tts....that's where i stopped. again, early days in the burn.
 
i got mine on ebay too out of NY, seller started with 18 now has four...
two reviews i'd read said "don't expect too much as far as music goes" the other said "none of the tips fit, sounds awful"
 
Nice find Dsnuts, another winner! *ding* *ding*
 
 

Hey you expect anything else?. You know how I do.  I have seen some of the reviews online. People just don't know. You guys want a laugh look at the reviews on Amazon for the Philips SHE3580..

J-CORD?!
 
Anyway,I think I'll buy them and compare to XKDUN CK-700 and Radiopaq Rock (amazing sound for[size=small] £5 I paid)[/size] that I bought recently.

1.0 out of 5 stars These suck like a bucket of ticks, November 6, 2011

By 
Nutkin - See all my reviews



This review is from: Philips In-Ear Headphones Music Colors SHE3584/28 (Purple) (Electronics)

Before we even get to the issue of comfort or bass response or anything else, let's look at the elephant standing in the middle of the living room.

The wires on these earbuds are coated in heavy rubber, the slightest touch to the wire transmits the sound right into your ear as a loud THUMP, completely ruining the music experience. It is like trying to listen to music while a carpenter is working in the same room. F minus.

Then there is the poor draping quality of the rubber wires. They've retained the set they took on in their package and now are a kind of weird coil that won't stay where you want it and have a tendency to yank the earbud out of your ear.

F minus.

Sound quality? Hard to judge over the incessant THUMPING from the rubber wire. Unless you are completely motionless and in a windless room, this feature will annoy anyone who is actually trying to listen to music.

In summary, I firmly believe anyone who gives this product more than one star is a corporate shill who is being paid upon conversion.
 
This guys is my cousin actually. He complains about everything.

You just have to know how to read these reviews! Under the incessant thumping from the rubber wire could be quite excellent sound quality so I don't see any knocks on the sound quality there

. Of course how they sound is important to know so I'd have to say the review wasn't helpful since he left that out.

The thermaltake's sound interesting for the price. Sibilance soundss like it could be an issue. Has anyone tried the "foam mod" made popular by the Panasonic HJE900? Seems like it could be a fix as well as changing tips.

After burning the SHE3580s for ~20 hours, they're starting to sound better...not amazing but better. ALOT less harsh to the ears. (Note: I do not EQ because it will be used as an all purpose headphone)
 
The cable however...definitely justifies the 1 star reviews:

Well I just received the isurus and listening/burning them now.
 
First thing I can immediately say is that the microphonics very well managed, and they are amazingly comfortable in the ear.
 
Changed the tips to Sony hybrids first thing (the tips that come with don't bring confidence).

None of you guys got my joke? Nutkin. He is my cusin. Oh man what are you guys a bunch of no personality audiophiles? That was so funny I had to laugh at my own joke. I'm a freakin regular comedian.

 

[jant71]

I thought it could have been either way. Actually your cousin or you joking; it was 50/50

in my estimation.

I actually thought you were serious

They come out of the package a tangled mess and stay that way for a while but my used pairs‘ wires arr straight and well behaved. So the cables need break in too

I got the tt's today, I took the t-400 comply from the spiders tiny ear that I also got today and the comply are FTW!  the fit is superb with the foam, I  don't like comply, I may have to spring for that 100 pack of olives I saw floating around the internet and a small nosed pair of needle nose pliers for the stretching.  Burning them in from earlier today until Tuesday.
