this is a long shot but does anyone have a spare TF10 from the amazon deal they're willing to sell me? Thanks! Oh and in regards to deals the Monster Outlet is back up, turbine refurbs are back at $54 or so =)

It is like 80-90% similar... but the 700's got that special UE house flavor to it, makes the vocals to treble smoother and more musical, I think. However the general sound signature is pretty much the same.

Mate, I think the $99 UE700 is only for us Aussies, they don't deliver internationally I don't think...I believe Amazon is selling those around $150USD
 
A lot of people rate this very high, coincidentally, my brother asked me what I want for my bday, and I sent him the link, and he is buying one for me...let see if they are really as good as what people are saying, I was assuming the signature is too similar to B2 in my 1-2 hours use of it when it first released, that's why I never really interested in it

TDK BA100 for $50 at Newegg with promo code[size=1.2em] EMCJHKD27  [/size]
 
That's $150 off the list price!


Damn that is attractive indeed...very tempting, though I have promised myself no more IEM buy until at least February...
 
...but then again my recent bad luck run with Dynamics IEM make me wants to focus on BA ones...

Not sure if worth it. The people who received these for free from Amazon even hates them. http://www.amazon.com/TDK-BA100-Ear-Balancing-Headphones/product-reviews/B005FUDNBI/ref=cm_cr_dp_all_helpful?ie=UTF8&showViewpoints=1&sortBy=bySubmissionDateDescending
 
At $50 price point, you can get the A151 BA for $40 shipped.

ClieOS says it's decently good for $110. http://www.head-fi.org/t/541204/concise-multi-iem-comparison-fischer-audio-mightybug-fa977-ceramique-paradigm-v-3-consonance-tandem-sba-3-added-oct-27th-2011/360#post_7943947
But amazon got the wrong picture for BA100 - they used BA200's picture.

I'll wait until someone breaks open the BA100 and BA200 and shows which drivers they're using.
 

And what's that going to achieve? If the performance is there it doesn't matter if it's using the cheapest drivers possible. 
 
I don't get why those Amazon reviews get any importance, they all pretty much just complain about the cable's configuration which is similar to the FX700. If it were the FX700, it would get even more bashing because of their higher price and limited ergonomics. Our best bet is to go ClieOS and he says they're good at 110$, imagine how good they are at 50$.
