Ultimate Sounds for Any Lifestyle

	metro.fi 2 If you are a fashion-conscious, active commuter who wants to get better sound from your MP3 player or iPod than you’re getting with your player’s stock headphones, the metro.fi 2 was made for you. It gives you a full spectrum of sound in a stylish in-ear design that incorporates a universal fit kit to maximize your comfort and minimize the noise around you. The passive noise-isoloating design that blocks out 16 dB of ambient noise, while the titanium-coated speaker and proprietary audio filters devlier a full, "punchy" sound. The metro.fi 2 series is perfect for those looking for an entry-level step up from their portable audio player's stock headphones.
	super.fi 3 The super.fi 3 Studio earphones give you studio-quality sound in a unique in-ear design that incorporates pro-style ear loops to keep your earphones in place and a universal fit kit. The super.fi 3 studio also seals your ear canal like the metro.fi 2 but it blocks even more noise because the internal speaker is different. The super.fi 3 studio incorporates a proprietary balanced armature driver--the same technology found in hearing aids. Instead of pushing air to generate sound waves like your home speakers, a balanced armature is a coil that vibrates like a guitar sting. A balanced armature driver gives you distortion-free, full-range audio clarity while the in-ear design provides up to 26 dB of noise isolation for clearer sonic detail. The super.fi 3 series is a great intoduction to true audiophile headphones for those who are looking to get more out of their portable player.
	super.fi 5 Pro EB For those who need a little more low-end response, the super.fi 5 Pro EBs deliver the same professional-grade sound, noise isolation, and superb form factor as other earphones in the super.fi line, but with an increased bass sensitivity for deep and driving beats. Precise audio filters and an encapsulated diaphragm subwoofer ensure that the bass stays tight and distortion-free, never muddy. The super.fi 5 series' dual-driver technology makes these earphones ideal for studio-grade acoustic performance while delivering an increased "thump" for those who like to really feel their music. Includes a metallic travel case.
	super.fi 5 Pro The super.fi 5 Pros are the closest you can get to the same professional-grade stage monitors custom-made by Ultimate Ears for stars like The Killers, Incubus, and Linkin Park. Experience superior full-range sound, thanks to audio filters that shape the sound for maximum detail, plus passive crossovers that directs music to two different drivers for precise audio reproduction: one large balanced armature driver for clear, non-muddy lows, and one precision balanced armature for detailed mids and highs. Includes a metallic travel case.
	triple.fi 10 Pro If the super.fi 5 series feels like being a musician in the studio, the limited edition triple.fi 10 series is like being a professional sound engineer. If you want to hear every possible nuance and musical layer, then you need the triple.fi 10 Pro earphones. These earphones offer the most detailed and sonically rich experience humanly possible when listening to any style of music--when a guitarist slides their fingers along the strings or when a singer exhales, you will hear every detail. The triple.fi 10 Pro series is Ultimate Ears' latest technological breakthrough and the only professional earphone product with three separate drivers--one for accurate bass, one for the critical vocal midrange, and one for crystal-clear highs. These earphones also incorporate all the best features that Ultimate Ears universal products have to offer including pro-style ear loops that secure your earphones in place and a universal fit kit--plus a distinctive metallic blue finish truly separates you from the pack. The triple.fi 10 Pro’s also come with a metallic protective travel case, sound attenuator and ¼" adaptor jack. Now your head is a world class recording studio. But don’t take our word for it – hear the difference for yourself!

Poor fit...always drop out...
They just drop out all the time from the ears.
Totally unusable when standing (walking, etc..)
Moreover I had two times such an ear irritation caused by these earplugs, that I had to go to doctor and take drugs (ok,ok, i didn't disinfected them, that was also probably the cause). When this happend me for a second time (even after desinfection), i said, ok, i will never use them.

I have to say, that when I holded them in my ears, they have TERRIFIC SOUND (better than sure e2c). What a pity, that they don't fit me.

Overally: I do not recommend to purchase it without trying out them first in a studio.

p.s.: i had no similiar problems with shure e2c, probably because they had a soft fit).

Disappointing
Got these as a replacement for the Sony Fontopias (when the left earbud broke on my third pair of Fontopias in a year, I've decided to move up to bigger and better). Was initially pleased with the sound isolation and the audio quality. Then the problems started to pile on: the earbuds won't stay on unless you are sitting perfectly still and not moving your head. I had to hold them in my ears at the gym! Whenever the cord bounces off your body, you hear it over the music, like a hollow noise. The earbud covers started to come lose and come off the drivers, which had me in a constant state of paranoia of losing them. The very stiff cord makes it impossible to keep the earbuds in your ears, they get yanked out every time you turn your head. The cord also does not lie flat against your body, which makes it easier for others to accidentally yank the buds out when they walk past you. Long story short - I seem to have lost them on a recent trip, and I am not getting a replacement pair.

Buy These Buds- Trust Me
I am a musician and I am very picky about my audio equipment. I have tried all of the better buds out there from Shure, Bose, V-moda, Sennheiser, Sony, etc...... I was just about to give up on my search for the perfect bud and I came across these. Let them bake(24 hours of play time)and these buds sound awesome. Great high, solid mid and good Bass. Comfortable fit, sturdy wiring. For the price, you just can't beat these.
