4. updated Ultimate Ears Triple.Fi 10vi - July 13, 2009 at 3:18 pm

chose Shure SE530 over Ultimate Ears Triple.Fi 10vi
added a competitor: Shure SE530
agreed: "fair amount of isolation - perfect for use in louder places without completely being taken out of your surroundings"
agreed: "Hard to insert into the ears, requires both hands to insert. Fit is not comfortable even with different buds."
agreed: "should be driven out of a dedicated amp with a better source than the every-day portable media player for best sound quality (will disable microphone functionality) "
agreed: "Relatively fragile: Controls highly susceptible to water damage, memory wire around the ears tends to poke through the rubber casing and cable snaps relatively easily if accidentally tugged. "
agreed: "not as comfortable or as isolating as a custom fitted IEM (such as the much more expensive UE-10, or a similarly priced Freq)"
agreed: "very expensive"
agreed: "superior sound quality to stock buds and the majority of buds found on the market"
agreed: "can be used with any range of sources and amplification - including every day personal media players such as iPods"
agreed: "2-year warranty"
agreed: "Replaceable cable"
agreed: "Replaceable cable"

disagreed: "Video on internal memory is a pain to download, must be connected to AC or it does not let you download video over the USB??? SDHC cards are easier to deal with, and cost very little. The HF100 is the identical camera less the internal memory, save your money and the headaches, get the HF100 and a couple SDHC cards and good SDHC card reader for a few hundred dollars less."
