I remember when Triple.fi 10 Pro was one of the favourable IEMs in the market. But after Logitech acquired them, I'm not sure if they still are. Did their sound/build quality or just product in general change at all?
I remember when lots of people recommended it but I don't see that happening anymore. Just curious as to why UE products in general aren't getting all the attention as it used to.

Back then, there were only a few IEM companies that HF liked (or was available), shure, etymotic, and UE. Now there are many many more choices, many of them that have better value than UE.

A lot of problems that I'm seeing here are the bottom of the phone's pin housing for the removable cables coming out of the phone due to the force needed to pull the cables out. When I removed mine I had no problems.

There is a note of it somewhere around here but I'm not sure where it is, however I remember it saying that there wasn't some "drastic" change in sound quality, both models sounded pretty much the same.

You can get a pair for under 200 bucks now... for that price they are great phones

they just got old thats all. new is always more interesting and exciting and its no longer the diarchy of the tf10 and 530

There is a suggestion made that the hardware was changed, but there has been absolutely no evidence of this what-so-ever. It's merely an unsubstantiated rumor and nothing more.

Ultimately, given the advancements in BA technology over the past few years, I think the TF10 (like it some its' contemporaries) is simply a bit old and no longer cost competitive with the "new blood". However, it still sounds as good as it ever did.

what he said. topic discussed here, with post #6 probably the most substantive post regarding this matter, unless others come forth to contribute their direct A/B comparisons.

I think it's just the cable build that changed when comparing the pre-Logitech and post-Logitech TF10s, with the latter having the less stellar quality. As far as I can recall, the sound signature between the two are just the same.
