These things used to cost around 300 dollars, when they came out, the MSRP was 500, they're a steal even if you pay full price I feel.
 
For 120 bucks, you absolutely should buy them, they'll dominate the SE215's

I haven't used my TF10's in a while because I'm letting a friend try them out.
 
Bad news for him, he's hooked and is going to buy a pair soon!

They were $399 when they came out competing head to head with SE530 at $450
 
Bad ergonomics/fit for so many have eroded the price.
 
But even $200 is a bargain. Ergonomics and fit aside, TFP10 is possibly in top 5 sounding universals ever made IMHO.  One of Jerry Harvey's originals.

Well, nearly 2 years after the infamous $100 Amazon sale and getting my TF10s custom molded a few weeks later, I am still loving them. It's crazy to see how high the market value is for these sweet IEMs still!
 
My "TF10" as they are currently (pic is old but they still look the same):

Hey TF10 lovers -- what's the consensus on cable upgrades? DHC? Jena? Anyone else...?

I got the lune cable from null audio. Though i don't recommend people getting it if you're not from singapore. His service is kinda slow.
