Ultimate Ears Triple Fi 10 Thread

I've always been sceptical about the TF 10's after reading so much on them. After using all of the Shure models (mostly the SE530) I bought a pair of TF 10 cheap on ebay and I gotta admit they sound awesome. Excellent bass and my first choice for metal music. I'll def keep the SE530, but I will not use them for metal no more.

Picked some up recently. Only complaint is.. the tips. Just bought some Comply tips which cost a buttload to ship to NZ -_- (could've gotten them from retailers in aus with free shipping but.. they only stock regular)

Oh and the "recessed mids" thing. Its not as much as I was expecting from all the posts, but its definitely there (a bit)

I tried the complys again on a whim last night. They simply cannot compare to the Sony Hybrids. I'm getting a good seal on both, but the comply's really blow up the bass and mask the highs and even some relaxed vocals. Comfort's pretty close too.

Is it safe to buy off eBay? NEW Ultimate Ears Triple Fi 10 PRO Worldwide Shipping - eBay, Headphones Earbuds, iPod MP3 Accessories, Electronics. (end time 29-Jan-10 08:43:07 AEDST)



More than likely someone is cashin in on the amazon sale, i haven't heard of any fake UE'S. So far there's been plenty of people on here that have purchased them from ebay and all has gone well.

I just got mine and I love them! The bass is amazing. And the mids are great. I am using stock tips, I find they sound good. Either way I am going to have them remolded by Fisher soon. I will probably be doing a mini review. Glad to join the club.

Oh and the stock cable is AWFUL. It is so un-ruley, you can't do anything with it. It is to stiff and bulky.

Im considering the remolds myself, it's just so hard to let them go for a week

What's the best cable to get for them? open to suggestions. thx

Stock or custom? One size does not fit all. For custom, I do like the Westone ES. For stock, Null Audio makes one, and there are a couple of others. But if you do go with customs, the stock cable can work, but they mod it and not in a good way (mash it to fit or something like that). But the point of a custom is the ability to upgrade the cable. And t me, the ES is perfect, both sound and design.

just wondering but are there any differences between the stock cable? a bunch of people complain about the stock cable but i like it so far. maybe its more cuz im easy to please as long as it works and the cable doesnt retain too much memory of how it was wrapped up.

What promo was this? I looked on Amazon and the pros were all like close to 400bucks.

Does that price seem a bit too cheap for pros?

Normally don't buy this stuff off eBay so a bit weary about it ><
