Ultimate Ears Triplefi 10

Recommended Posts

hi all, thinking of purchasing a pair of ue TF10s from an online dealer.. but its an amazon set so warranty has to be RMAed straight to USA. any advice regarding such a purchase?

 

anyone here has had any experiences with such a warranty scenario? and does anyone here have any issues with TF10 other than the infamous fit issues? Just auditioned a pair earlier and totally loved the sound :D

I suppose it was bought when amazon sold them for USD$99

 

I bought my EBs online too, and when they broke down I just sent them in to the US side. You have to pay for shipping there, but it's not expensive.

I just realised that while listening to Andrea Bocelli's The Prayer (Duet with Celine Dion) in lossless i get a bit of a crackling sound on the highs.. is this normal or are my drivers faulty? i dont seem to hear the same crackling sound when i play it through my desktop speakers.

Yes, I have the same issue. Initially I thought it is my ipod issue. I send my ipod to apple for inspection but after they replaced it, it is still the same. Then I change my dvd drive to pioneer and rip song with slower speed and it got a lot better. It is due to the sensitivity of the driver, I guess. It will surface when you listen to vocal on high especially for female vocal.

Yes, I hear the same distortion at time around 2:35-2:37, and another one at around 2:48-2:51. I think it's clipping sound. I play using iPod 6G 80GB & TF10, volume around 55%. I tried using Superlux HD381F IEM, also the same clipping sound. So I guess could be clipping during recording, when their voice is just too loud for the microphone, and undetected in editing.

No, the clipping sound is from the recording, not from the IEM. I tried with 3 different IEMs, I can hear the same clipping sound. It is microphone overloaded sound (I do recording as well), might not detected on speaker monitor if the speaker monitor detail is not very revealing. But IEM is very revealing to detail, that's why we can hear it. It is also not recoverable using compressor.
