The fit of the TF10s is inexplicable, they seem to be engineered for a tiny minority of humans.
 
 
 


Thank God I am in that tiny minority

I guess I am then as well. However, I had to reverse the drivers (left cable, right driver, vice versa) and use the Comply foamies (but you have to push the foam back away from the nozzle when you compress it. Otherwise, the sound gets really muddy). Once you figure out how to use them, they're awesome IEMs.

Amazed that UE made them to point out when the fit is so improved by doing the flip mod. I love my SE535s, but actually prefer these on most of the tracks I listen to. The ultimate trance IEM (IMO).

Something about TF10's signature goes really well with trance.

TF10 + RDIO + trance + Apogee Duet = crazy delicious!

Wow, the algo is next on my wish list. I assume it will work well with the latest touch. I need something to drive my RDIO addiction.

Trust me, if you saw the grin on my face you would see how wonderful the solo is!
It does indeed work perfectly with the latest itouch, apparently not so with the first gen one though.

When I get home I will post a picture of it all with the 10's, I have tidied up the cables a bit since my last pictures though next on the shopping list is Ken's shorter cable kit...the madness never ends really does it!

I just ordered the Jaben ES cable for my TF10s, are they any good?
 
And logitech support is completely useless, sent them an email on how my TF10's left monitor cut out after 4 months and requested an replacement cable, heres the response that I got:
 
 
 
Now I commend them for responding back within an hour this time around, but now they are asking me to send everything in, including the box, so they can take their time and play detective.

Haha, I am sold. I'm going to a private screening of "Limitless" tonight, but I'll be checking my phone for pics!

That looks a good movie!
Here are a couple of quick shots, it still looks like Medusa's head but it is a bit tidier now!


 
The sharp eyed might notice a white mark on the cable end, tippex so I can see which is the right channel..Older you get the worse the eyesight becomes!!

My TripleFi's just came this morning.  Getting these monsters to fit in my ear was a little "different" at first, as this is the first time I've listened to any headphones "over the ear".  Once I got them snugged in there (medium stock tips) and holy COW these things are amazing.  I recently bought the 700's and wasn't happy with them, and man am I happy I shelled out the extra money for the TripleFi's.  I have the eq on iTunes set to Flat (which I never do) and I am VERY happy with the sound.  I just wanted to say thanks for everyone on this forum for giving their detailed opinion and thoughts on these headphones!

On a whim I just did the reverse modification, not due to any discomfort or lack of sound quality as I have been happy with both. Having said that I did find my left channel worked lose a little. Now they are. Seated better and no working lose, can't say that I notice any sound difference.

So now thy have become even more comfortable for me, these just get better and better!

the only thing that's giving me trouble's the fit. silicon tips don't stay and comply foam tips tear easily.. gonna try out other tips soon.
