bump?

Hello.

I've owned the TF10 for 4 years.....

But now i think i fell for the new crop of Sony IEM professional series such as the MDR EX800st and MDR 7550 (dynamic IEMs) after reading the reviews , and i'm seriously thinking about trading in my TF10 just so i can acquire one of the sonys i mentioned.

I want rugged studio grade/quality IEMs… but do i have a lot to lose if i pursuit this?

I've got a pair of 7550s on the way. I could do a side by side if you'd like.

pailiccs connector(may be clone) but can't fit
3.5mm female on players/devices that have
protective case as no presence of additional
4-5mm stem to accommodate.it's a pain.         -   it's there and nice strain relief too!
 
braided with 2X (two cores) wires                     -   11 pieces of wire cores of single wire times 8 where
                                                                        each 2*single wires terminated to R+,R-,L+,L-.
 
looks very cheap on the cable especially pin     -   good plastics,UE type pin connector looks
connectors & plastic                                           cool,legit workmanship.
                                                                          
no core(wire) specs revealed                            -   silver plated copper wire.

Of all the headphones and iems I have ever owned the TripleFi 10 is the headphone that I regret selling the most. I saw a good deal on a brand new TF10 and couldn't resist snapping it up. Can't wait to be reunited with them!

Ahh crap. Now it's out of stock. :/
 
Thanks for the comparison!

I just got a nice set of Hybrid Chris_Himself cables for my TF 10s (copper/silver) to replace my stock cables (my first set wore out, as UE cables do), I plugged in the stock backup cables that I bought when I got the 10s a few years ago (I've had a number of UE iems, I know the drill), and then thought, why not an upgrade?  Just plugged the Hybrids in and listened for an hour or so (no "burn in" as I'm not convinced that a non-moving wire requires such) and am very happy with the sound coming from my WAV files>Colorfly C3>B&H CC w/silver cable>TF 10s.  Took a hundred bucks and three weeks, but in the first hour that seems to be a good investment.  If anyone is looking for good upgrade cables, I'd suggest looking into these or the higher-end pure silver ones.

Are the Furutech that much worse? My cable is breaking at the seams and I'm getting desperate.

Lune MK3 just came in the mail. Packaging and build quality has improved even more than when I got my Aretes.
