Also anyone planning to buy extra Comply foam tips or Sony hybrids for TF10 ? i guess they already come with 3 Comply tips .

I was thinking if these would be good for TF10.

Amazon.com: Monster Gel and Foam SuperTip Sampler Starter Kit: Electronics

I got all the tips you mentioned except that I have only one pair of Comply T-500. Monsters are monstrously priced, but they may be a better investment in the long run compared to high maintenance Complys.

Edit: Monster Gel Tips pack can be shipped to India, but a $13 shipping and $11 Import Fees Deposit makes it $48, which is too costly. And only 2 pairs per order are allowed. For 2 pairs, shipping becomes $16 and Import Fees Deposit becomes $20 resulting in approx $84, $42 per sampler kit landed.

I am in for compy tips for IE8 and sony hybrid too.
ES2 looks softer i am in if there a GO.
 
my sony hybrids were waiting for me when i go back today from lucknow ...white one looks good ! :) ...but can you besure hybrid will fit the TF10 ..i mean the nozzle is quite wide. I may be wrong .. i dont have a tf10 :(
i am in for monstergel tips ...they are great! :) not the foam ones!
 
got a reply from null audio guy ...

Hi Achal,
As indicated on our website, currently the lead time on Lune series cables are around 3 weeks.
We will be giving 15% off for quantity of 10. Thank you!

Best Regards,
Kevin K. Wang

Null Audio Studio

that come out to be 90 ...but still too much. but its a silver cable ( or no? )...silver costs a ton ! :)

also it is not in stock
 
Delayed post--I freshly registered and was waiting for posting rights.

Originally I was going to go in on the Null Audio group buy, but after seeing the ES8 two-for-one sale, I couldn't really warrant it. Maybe one day when I have the extra scratch...
 
The null audio one is real cheap ( :O) if you ask me !! I mean the whiplash audio/alo ones cost around 200...100 for a silver cable is good !!

though there is a expensive option as well at null audio, costs 600 ;)

And hay, today is the last day for ES8 ....NO one sent me a message for the GO....you guys are missing on a good offer IMO ( and i cant grab it :( ...no CC))
 
Hay , i dont think cable scan make THAT much difference !! .they affect the IEMs sure BUT that ..!! ...and that was ES2 , if i am not wrong !

the TF10 cable is unmanageable ...from what i have seen (and felt ) ...ES8 improves them there ! :)
 
Don't wanna hear you say that the tf10 are for bassheads. I've tried quite a few cables and the worst of the lot was the Westone cables even though its the most easily available and the cheapest.
The twilight cable IS your best bet for the price, followed by the Lune / UE Rainbow.
 
I never say A or B is for bass head if it has good bass and not overpowering the rest off the spectrum.

I might say it has basshead level( quality and(/or) quantity) of bass ( but that does not mean that the rest are lacking )

in case of TF10 the bass is very good. ( did i reall say that ...let me check)
 
Ok maybe it was someone else......every alternate post in any thread has your name on it dude, so I keep thinking its either you or esanthosh, and since esanthosh is now convinced that all the hype around the recessed mids and the infamous Vcurve is false, it leaves you in my crosshairs. JK bro ;)

Anyways, coming back to replacement cables for the TF10, is anyone arranging a MO for the Twilight, i'm in if someone does it ASAP.

P.s. @strategy: you still owe me a detailed review of the Sflo2 Vs Hm602. I din't get to try the 602 at jaben cuz the fools there din't have any music on it and it accepts only a sd-mmc card which is only used for camera's these days.

lol i love the bass of TF10, just perfect, just not enough width for me :(, depth is vry good!

Yeah the review is due ! but first comes my AKG K702 !! :D will cover Sflo and HM next !

BTW when you go to jaben next time try the Colorful colorfly, they are touted to be in league with the HM801 !!! and cost about the same !! jaben have them for demo, saw it on headfi.

and YOU should arrange a GO for us all who are stuck in india! :P

@ toxic : yeah twelight is great for the price ...just 20 more than the TF10 original cable :)

@metal spree : hay, you guys did not post any impressions on the green

it had some tiny wire problems already, i was gonna sell them as cable is a nightmare and getting a new one is another, my sis wan't listening them much either. I contacted Faheem if 9k selling price is good and he gave a green light, so i was typing the stuff for thread in the ms word, i left it incomplete and decided to complete it next morning. I thought of listening them until they are sold and placed the IE8 and M2(Really good IEM for the price)back in the briefcase(i keep all audio stuff in it). I fell asleep listening them and something might have happend,probably wire got stretched, i found my ipod on the ground next morning none of the drivers were working.So i opened the pin side and soldered wire must have got ripped off.

Now i dont trust others(mobile repairing shops) but the soldering must be neat and small, i am a bit rookie at neat soldering, i can solder it back but the wire might not fit back in. any advices

About these two cables in the second one's item description it says it increases the bass, i dont expect it to be significant but stiil i may be wrong. if it makes a little diff. i might not even be able to detect it.anyways i am still in love with the IE8 cable its just amazing even in winter it hasn't lost its softness.
