I'm sorry you feel so insecure in your opinion, your Highness.

TF10s are shallow insertion, ipso facto isolation is not their strong suit.

I still dont understand the tf10 hate. I have them and simply love them. They have such a natural sound AND they fit my ears comfortably. They have a detachable cable in case you ever need to replace it. The lows are very precise.. vocals sound amazing. If you're into the same type of music as I am (trance) then I would get them for sure.

I really like them, they are not as crisp as my sennys and the soundstage is more narrow (to be expected from iems) but their bass is noticeably better (it extends much better) and they are very enjoyable to listen to, I do not think there is any "burn in" time on them because of the armature drivers, but I will continue listening to see if anything changes. Also the sound insolation works quite well and I notice details I never have before because I assumed I was hearing outside noises on my open cans (the tapping of someones foot on a recording of chopins "revolutionary etude") so that is pretty cool. They are not as analytical as sennheisers notoriously are, but they warm without the exaggerated bass and thin treble that grados sometimes suffer from (I cannot stand it personally, it was grating, sr80s).
 
I am sorry I cannot compare it to any other iem, but the closest iems Ive heard are bose, so I dont even bother.
 
the size and shape does not bother me at all because I have large earholes so they fit fine, although I have a bit of trouble figuring out how to angle them in my ear sometimes.

IMO
 
it is somewhat difficult to achieve the right fit, but once you do...they really do sound great.
They have an exceptionally wide sound stage, and excellent bass.
I listen to them at 20% audio level on my phone/pc and they really do drown
out all noise. its a bit creepy walking around with them in public because i feel they
really disconnect me from the world. Lastly, i am one of those who believe they do need
to be burned in. the first time i plugged them in i found them a bit dissapointing, after continued
use there sound has in my opinion increased noticeably.
