Oh man, I know custom reshelling isn't cheap, but OMG they are so comfortable! In my ears for 6 hours straight now and counting, and in fact, my Sansa's battery died while I was listening to it!
 
I've never out listened an mp3 player before... lol...

Been sleeping in mine for like.. 8 months now?

I would try that, but I'm scared that I won't wake up in time for class.

Close. Six and a half, actually.

I ordered some tips from Ebay that I am really liking. Great comfort and isolation without sucking the detail out of the TF10. They are kind of a cross between the Comply and a Marshmallow tip. Cheap at $3 - $4 for a set of 3.

^ I'm set with monster foam tips, S or SM works great for me. but those you linked to really cheap, do they seem durable?
 
also, anyone knows if amazon is going to have the usual $99 sale this next friday?

 

[bubsdaddy]

I have only been using them for a few days but I would guess they are pretty durable.

 

[Spyro]

How are they any different from the supplied comply tips?

 

[bubsdaddy]

They are a little denser.

 

[OnlinePredator]

Yeah, about the sale.
What date is it?
I live in Australia as well, so when does  it start and end in AEDT?(Is the sale only 24 hours?)
Do the TF10s come with tips?If so, are they good enough or should I buy more tips?
These will be my first IEMs ever, so I'm super excited!
How long will it take for them to ship to Sydney?

Yeah same here...
 
my biggest concern that if this sale is only for US residents - I wanted to buy AtrioX the other day from Amazon and ended up that they don't ship to Australia

From memory it was US only last year.

Also says US only currently but who knows... Of course there is no guarantee that the TF10s will go on sale this year too. If they do, I expect your best bet will be to purchase from one of the many resellers who will pop up with slightly higher prices and hope one will ship internationally.

They actually do on eBay. 
 
edit: For about 220 shipped.

Should the sale occur, and at a sub US$150 price off amazon I meant

 

[Chris_Himself]

I think this might be the end of this IEM.. I don't see the TF10 being around much longer there doesn't seem to be enough new users anymore compared to the popularity of this model about 2 years ago.
 
Cost is definitely perceived as quality in this hobby... perhaps that is why the SE535 is enjoying more success these days than the TF10.. 
 
It's had a good run but I don't think there are even enough of them out there to be able to do the sub-100 sale anymore
 
If they're out there again this year, I'm going to buy three of em!
