anyone tried the sony hybrid ear tips on TF10 ?

Well, I am now sitting here listening to my new ACS custom sleeves on my TF-10's, and they sound simply amazing.

First impressions were not so good, as they are quite difficult to fit, and were not sealing properly at all. So, after messing with them for a while and putting them in and out a few times, I have them sorted now and have found the best way to get the in easily and maing a great seal too. They are still slightly uncomfortable, but they feel better each day that I wear them.
The biggest improvement is in the consistency and open-ness of the sound, which always seemed to change depending on the way the you inserted them when using the standard tips, and it feels like there is nothing between your ear drums and the sound source, with every nuance of the music clear as a bell. The bass seems tighter and more in balance with the rest of the sonic spectrum, and the top end is now just soooooo smooth and clear.
 
Overall I think they have improved the earphones hugely, and I would recommend these to anyone. I will try and take some pictures etc in due course, including how much they actually protrude!

I just got them yesterday and this is probably the best fit I've had for the TF10 yet (tried the supplied tips, comply tx-500s). The sound is less muddy than the complys by far.

The supplied tips are not the Tx series (the Tx series come with a integrated wax guard and only come in black). I don't like them much with my TF10. So far,I don't like the complys with ANY of my other IEMs cause they muffle the treble a bit and actually makes the fit worse for me. and I don't like them with any other IEMs like my Shure or Sennheiser. (The 400 models for the Senns are a nightmare to put on)
 
I think I'll be sticking with the normal tips for now. I really wanna try the hybrids though. Lots of good comments on the hybrids.

 

[rroseperry]

I should have explained. I bought the TX tips separately.

I replaced the cable with the Jaben Singapore 38.00 cable and I am very pleased with it. It is so much better than stock and reasonable plus it got here in 3 days from Singapore. I really like the TH10 with the IPOD loselless. I am glad I got in on the deal and they are really very very good IEM IMO Very balanced and wide deep sound stage with very nice detail.

Have my replacement TripleFis sitting back at home, plus the aforementioned Jaben cable. Also have an eBay cable coming in, and will be interesting how they compare. Most likely will sell the Jaben cable though, as I'm rocking a Bumper with my iPhone right now, and if the Jaben cable plug is anything like the Westone cables, then it won't fit it with the Bumper on.

 not sure how cold it gets in the philllipines, but in MA (very cold state) when you remove the complys outside and try to fit them back into your ears, the foam has become shruken and as hard as rock...

Cant wait to see the pics Soundmangt4! How long did it take for the whole process?

Well, Buffalowings, the Philippines is a tropical country with no winter season so it doesn't get that cold over here. In fact, you're never going to see the temperature drop below 25 deg. Cel. in the national capital region. Even the coldest places will record temps no lower than 12 deg. 
 
I don't like the complys. I think the problem is their long nozzle. It really juts out too much and are just too darn porous.

I posted this in the other TF thread,but I figured I'd post it here too.  I just got some MC5s in the mail that came with 3 sets of medium Olives. I like the triple flange on the MC5 better than the olives, so I thought what the heck I'll put the Olives on the Triple Fi. It took me about 20 minutes to cut the core out of them with some small scissors that come on a swiss army knife, but it was totally worth it.  I just pushed down on the bottom to expose the tubing and cut it down until there was no tubing left.   They fit as well as my TX500s, and I feel that the SQ has improved also, even over the complys that I trimmed. I'm definately going to use Olives from now on.

So my TF10's just shipped from the Amazon deal. I'll have them on Monday, although Amazon said not under after Christmas, oh well, thanks for messing my budget up

The TF10s have nearly converted me to a UE man. The thing is I used to be a Shure man for a long time since buying the SE530. I still love the 530 though. Is it just me or is the sound stage on the TF10 a bit narrow compared to the other big 2? (SE530 and IE8) maybe its the tips?

ok, this is weird....I just turned down the volume all the way on my ipod classic and still clearly hear the music, at almost comfortable level.....
anyone tried this? are these supposed to be really that sensitive??
 
strange because with external amp at 0 don't hear anything at all..so i guess its got to do with my ipod..
