 "Ultimate Fidelity" 2010-08-04
By J. Earle
I've bought a lot of headphones over the last few years, I like to have a couple of pairs at any one time so as to have the best sort for the environment I'm in.



So when it came time to replace my old Shure 3's, which I found very uncomfortable in extended use I decided to look around rather than just upgrading to the 5 series.



I'm glad I did.



The Ultimate Ears Triple.fi 10 Pro is the latest model in what Ultimate Ears calls it's rage for "Discerning consumers who demand the best of the best.".



The speakers themselves contain three drivers for a superb dynamic rage and wonderful sound, they're a little bulky but as far as extended use goes, these are the most comfortable in ear phones I've ever purchased.



They have a response of 10Hz - 17kHz and impedance of 32 Ohms, giving a very satisfying experiance; even when my iPod is on it's lowest volume setting the noise cancelling it acheives ensures I never need go above this for office use.



As with all in-ear phones the quality comes from the fit, something a lot of people have problems with; if you can't get them to fit correctly or use the wrong cushions, you'll loose not only the noise isolation but also the bass, which when you do get the fitting correct will be jaw droppingly reproduced.



The Triple.fi's come with two seperate types of 'cushion', each with different sizes; the two foam cushions are probably the most comfortable, however I feel more sound escapes from them and they aren't the most durable material in the world and may need replacing sooner rather than later. There are three sizes of the silicone to choose from, they fit very snugly into the ear and can be used for hours at a time.



The headphones come ina very nice metallic style plastic case, which is more than big enough to hold the phones, a spare set of cushions and the supplied cleaning tool.



All in all, if you like in-ear headphones and are looking to upgrade you existing pair these have to be the best value around at the moment - at £100 less than the Shure 5 series, with none of the cable issues that have plagued that brand they're more than worth the money.

 "Excellent sound and build quality." 2010-07-18
By Dave D
Got these as a real surprise gift as they were on my wishlist for "someday when I'm rich". I did a LOT of research as I use relatively cheap Sennheiser in ear headphones that I have to replace once a year (that's usually what I ask for for Xmas).



When I received these I was astonished. The "build quality" of these are absolutely amazing. The wiring is reinforced and stiff which is fantastic because cheaper ones tend to fray. These babys are really solid, unlike anything you've ever seen.



The sound quality is without a doubt, beyond compare. It really is the best I've ever heard. Going from my old cheap ones to these, even on an iPod was unreal. VERY noticeable. If you're an audiophile, these guys wont let you down.



Now, the downsides. I read the reviews beforehand about not fitting into the ears but that it's something that you get used to and they eventually fit in. I've had these 6 months now, tried EVERY bud they came with and I still can't get them to fit comfortably in my ears. I LOVE in-ear headphones, but these guys just wont stay in there. No matter what I do. They ESPECIALLY fall loose when walking. Maybe it's my ears but these just wont stay in when walking. Even when sitting still, they tend to pop out and have to jam them in (with a little pain) to get a few more mins out of them.



Finally, and this isn't a real problem with the product itself as the dimensions are clearly stated, but I love to fall asleep with my earphones in. It's impossible with these guys. They're far too big. (They didn't lose a point for this BTW).



So ultimately (see what I did there), if possible, I'd give these a test run with your own ears before plonking down the high price. If they feel comfortable in YOUR ears, they're worth the price and I would recommend them. If not, they will start to annoy you and this tends to shadow the excellent wound quality.

 "Great Sound - Terrible customer service from Logitech" 2010-04-22
By Martin Jones (UK)
Great quality sound, however have experienced some terrible customer service from Logitech when trying to get a replacement cable.

 "Ultimate ears Triple.Fi 10 earphones" 2010-03-13
By Reggie K (Lincolnshire)
I recently bought a Samsung P3 32gb MP3 player and it was so good that I decided I needed some high quality earphones to hear it at it's best. I was using Sony MDR EX70 earphones which were OK but not fantastic - a bit 'muddy' and indistinct. So, I read lots of reviews on t'internet and was torn between the Ultimate Ears and the Shure offerings. I had tried neither so it was a leap of faith to spend £200 on other people's recommendations! Three things made me go for the UEs instead of the Shure earphones; 1. The manufacturers web site showed that the UEs were clearly aimed at the professional music market with claims of 'studio reference' quality and had several pro name endorsements; 2. For the price I got three transducers per ear instead of Shure's two; 3.There were lots of critisms of Shure's wires splitting and breaking. At this price there's no excuse for this.

So, I ordered the Ulimate Ears off Amazon and they arrived the next day - very well done, Amazon.



Now for the listening results. Amazing. Astonishing. Unbelievable that such heavenly sound could come from such small objects! How can I describe it? It was like I'm *inside* the sound instead of listening *to* the sound. The clarity, depth and spread of the music is like nothing I've heard since I was in a studio, recording the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra, a while ago. I've tried the earphones on various operas, Madonna, Pendulum, Peter Gabriel, Nigel Kennedy, Ministry of Sound and much more and the they perform beautifully every time. I can now hear individual instruments in the music as well as sounds which my old earphones suppressed. For example, I can easily distinguish each of Ginger Baker's drums in his kit!

The big downside I have found is that my MP3 collection was ripped at 192kbps and these earhones reveal the shortcomings of the format at that bit rate. Reripping at 320kbps give *much* better results. FLAC is marginally but still noticably better. At this level you can pick out failings the recording studio may have had - microphone placing, extraneous noises and so on.

So, are the Ultimate Ears Triple.fi 10 earphones worth the money? Emphatically yes, they are to me. They have given my music collection a whole new lease of life.

 "Simply put, brilliant!" 2009-09-28
By I. Spencer (Welwyn Garden City, Hertfordshire United Kingdom)
I run mine on a Cowon Q5 and used to use a pair of Bose tri-port, they are in a different league.The UE triples are amazing to say the least, I tried them on a friends I-pod classic, they tore it to bits. My advice is... if you are using a high-end player these are the ones to go for. Rip everything at 320kbps or you'll never get the best out of them. Blow the expense they are second to none. Happy listening. :-) PS. I bought mine from Advanced MP3 Players through Amazon and they delivered the next day!

 "Great if you can get the ear buds to fit!" 2010-08-02
By Sound Advice (England)
I really wanted to like these ear phones and ordered them in spite of the three bad reviews. The problem is the ill fitting ear buds. Despite providing three different sizes and two different types, I can't seem to get any of them to fit and stay in my ear. Maybe I have strange ears - although I've not had problems previously with in ear bud type headphones. The manufacturer recommends winding the cord around the ear but don't provide any sort of illustration of how you do this exactly. It's possible, if you can get the buds to fit and stay in, then the sound might be good. But I am awarding this only two stars because, for me, they simply don't work. A bit of a design fault on the part of logitech and a bit of an expensive mistake on my part ...

 "Awful Purchase - AVOID" 2010-08-01
By Shonky (UK)
The SuperFi 5vi earphones are not good, are badly deisnged, have shonky sound quality and the microphone in particular is so poor that people can't hear me unless I hold it right in front of my mouth and even then I still get complaints from callers that I sound like I'm in the loo and that I sound quieter than when I use the iPhone's built in mic.



If you wear them over the ear for jogging or simply for a more secure fit, the microphone actually sits uselessly behind the ear defeating the point, the balance is wrong and the cable is too short.



Apart from that they're peachy - don't waste your money like I did and buy something better.

 "Very very disappointing given the hype" 2010-07-26
By Krisman (Ipswich, UK)
I will keep this very concise:

1. They feel incredibly cheap and light

2. Sound is strained even at relatively low volumes

3. Very difficult to align in the ear properly to give a balanced sound

4. Cable vibration noise is the worst I have heard so far

5. Provided case is a good idea

6. Mid range sounds very clear and seperated but bass is lacking and the overall 'wow' factor from your music is competely gone



Very disappointing given the rave reviews in magazines etc.

 "They are tacky sounding - at best" 2010-07-24
By Calvin Christianson
I bought these headphones based on the positive feedback it received here at Amazon. I noticed one '1 star' review, and didn't think it meant anything. Majority speaks the truth right? Wrong. DEAD wrong.



That one '1 Star' review was right on the money. These headphones sound cheap and tinny (and this is no exaggeration, I can promise you) in comparison to my bog standard pair that came with my ipod. I even tried shoving the head phones in my ear, and the bass still did not come through as good as my normal pair. As far as noise canceling goes, I didn't give a crap as I could never use a pair of headphones with such an empty sound ...but cancels all the noise around it. What's the point of that?



What baffles me are the video testimonials for these SuperFi 5V headphones; they are from musicians and producers, etc. Are they deaf? This was a seriously disappointing purchase. I've been through a ton of 'in ear' phones, and truthfully, these are one of the worst I've had.



Lastly, after looking at all the positive reviews, I began to wonder if there are faulty pairs out there that sound rubbish. This could be the case, I don't know. So far, I see one other person who has the same issue as me. Anyway, I hope this helps.

 "Fantastic earphones" 2010-07-01
By Chex_uk
I was a bit sceptical on paying so much for earphones, but I'm glad I did.

They are so much better quality than the standard earphones I usually buy.

The level of noise reduction is outstanding; even on a noisy bus, I hardly need to put the volume above half way on my iPhone to hear every detail of the music perfectly and without distraction. To be honest, you only really appreciate how much noise is cancelled out when you remove the earphones and the outside noise rushes back in. :)



I would reccomend these to anyone who likes to listen only to their music while travelling to work. :)

 "An all around fantastic pair of earphones with a few small drawbacks" 2010-07-20
By Marc Capavanni
Pros:



-Great sound quality (at least for the price)

-Top value



Cons:



-Cable quality is shoddy. After tying it around your MP3 player just a few times, you'll find they are very twisted.

 "Good Earphones for iPhone" 2010-07-07
By Derek Bain
I have been using the same pair of Sennheiser CX300 earphones for over 3 years now with a brief spell with the Sennheiser MM50 iPhone earphones (they lasted 3 months then fell apart). I was dudious of buying anything other than Sennheiser but I wanted a pair of earphones that I could answer calls, skip tracks and pause my music on my iPhone and after my experience with the Sennheiser MM50 iPhone earphones I decided to go for the Ultimate Ears MetroFi 220vi earphones. The sound quality is on a par with the Sennheisers however I do find that I have to go one notch higher on the volume while listening to music on my iPhone than I would with my old Sennheisers. The call answering button works well for obviously answering calls, skipping tracks and pausing music. The microphone is also good and I would say better than the one on the Sennheiser MM50 headphones I had. The headphones look and feel very well made and I like the fact that the inside of the right earphone is red just so you don't put it in the wrong ear. The little case for storing your headphones in is a nice little addition that works well. I have had no problems with actual silicon ear buds as I read a lot of people were complaining about the size. I use the large ones and they fill my ear more than my old Sennheisers and therefore block out more backgound sound. Price wise I think the price is about right for a good pair of earphones with call answering facilities and good build quality. Overall a really good pair of headphones.

 "Should be better at this price" 2010-06-02
By M. Harrison (London, UK)
A cursory glance through Amazon reviews is enough to tell you both that headphones range in price enormously, and that the relationship between price and quality is not altogether straightforward. It is now possible to get some remarkably good headphones for under £30.



But once you want to include a built-in microphone so that you can use your headphones with your iPhone, the choice gets altogether more limited. I did a fair amount of research before going for these MetroFi earphones, and it felt like quite a lot to pay. Did I get value for money? Well yes and no.



Yes, they are well made and durable; no concern they will fall apart. Right and left are distinguished by internal colour - which is a neat and pleasing touch. And the microphone is very well situated high up on one of the cables. But, no, the sound quality is not special. It's true they are slightly better than standard iPhone/iPod headphones (though these are in any case nothing like as bad nowadays as it is fashionable to claim), but the improvement comes largely from the tighter fit of the bud-style. The sound quality is open, but it has neither brightness nor depth: there is no danger that you will suddenly hear something you have never heard before, unlike some headphones.



Perhaps more disappointingly the microphone sound quality isn't great either. You will find yourself holding the mic right up to your mouth, and even then, if there is background noise, the person you are speaking to may struggle to hear you.



So all in all these are fine to get by with - and at half the price would have been perfectably acceptable. In any case they are so damn well-made I am lumbered with them. But I'd advise you to extend your research further than I did and see if you can do better.

 "OK I think, but it's a very personal opinion" 2010-04-22
By ghandibob (Swansea)
I have a feeling that any review of in-ear headphones at the lower end of the price bracket is always going to come down hugely to how well your choice of bud size from those provided measures up to your ear canal. I have not found, and I have tried many, that there is much difference between different manufacturers' offerings. At the expensive end, I've noticed the quality of Etymotic's ear buds, but for under £40 these seems to measure up pretty well. When I got the right size in my ear the seal was good and so was the sound. Unfortunately, as I use these for running, or shove them in my pocket when I pop into a shop, durability is an issue. I lost one of the rubber covers within 3 weeks. Sennheiser ones like these Sennheiser CX 300-II Precision Noise-Isolating Ear-Canal Phones - Black (Eco Packaging) have been with me for years now, in tact and without such an obvious noise when my shirt rubs against the lead as with the Ultimate Ears. So, in truth, it's going to be hard to say how you'll find these, but if you want earphones that will need to withstand some miscare, and your ears are my size, you may want to look elsewhere.

 "All expectations satisfied" 2010-04-06
By T. tajner (Ljubljana, Slovenia)
I've been using these for a couple of weeks. The sound quality is awesome, at least for my needs. I'm using them on an iPod touch, so the button comes in really handy for changing between songs. They're ok for running around as long as I have a head band that keeps them from falling out.



The earbuds might not fit into every ear - there are 3 sizes included, I'm using the small ones and my left ear becomes a bit uncomfortable after a couple of hours, but they're replaceable. I've heard that Comply tips might fit well for some people.



All in all, happy with the purchase!
