5 out of 5 stars Recommendable!!   September 30, 2008

Excellent sounding headphones! Powerfull, hard and deep bass, very loud and gratifying trebles even at high levels. Sometimes a little uncomfortable by wearing. Nevertheless I highly recommend this headphones! :)


5 out of 5 stars Great SONIC Impact...Better Deal on Dual Driver than Shure's Earbuds   September 24, 2008
Win2000
I just got these things...haven't even looked at the book yet...just opened them up and plugged them into my Iphone 3G and WOW....great sonic impact...a lot of punch to my music. I am very satisfied and what's really cool is the volume is much higher without turning it up real loud...halfway to full volume is loud on my Iphone...never could get it loud enough even at full volume with the Apple (junk) earphones that come with the Iphone. I didn't plan on spending this much for earphones but if you use them a lot and appreciate great sound from your music equipment, these shouldn't be a second thought. Dual drivers sound way better than the single drivers found on the similarly priced Shure models. Don't know how durable they are but time will tell. I listen to a lot of older Billy Joel (Turnstiles, The Stranger, Piano Man album) and these songs really come to life with these earphones. Using these earphones is like listening to your music on a high qualilty home stereo whereas the standard earphones that come with the Apple Iphone sound tinny. Another thing is that even at loud volumes for an extended period of time, my ears didn't hurt or ring afterwards (maybe because the sound is clean compared to junk earphones). I think the ear loops are a great thing as they hold them to your ears more securely. Just bend them enough to mold to your size of your ear and you really don't have to do it again. The only thing is that putting the earphones in the square case that comes with them is great for protection and taking them on the go, you have to really wind them up small to fit them in it and when you take them out again to use, you sort of have to re-bend the loops to fit your ears. Not sure how that will hold up but they do have a two year warranty...the Triple Fi 10's (another Ultimate Ears model) only come with a one year warranty. I can't imagine anyone not liking these earphones (the Super Fi 5 Pro's) unless you just can't get used to the loops going behind and over your ears...it is a different method than most others but once you get that figured out, the music is GREAT !!!


5 out of 5 stars Love these   September 20, 2008

I'm pretty picky about what I use to listen to music... I used to have the Sennheiser PX100's and the problem with those is that they require some serious equalization when listening to an ipod. Problem? Ipod's equalization is horrible.

Well these UE Super.fi 5 Pro's require absolutely no equalization for portables, and sound brilliant. I've owned a set of these before, but they were never available in black until now. Thats not the only change though--

My favorite update is the case. It came with a case before, but it was too frustrating to fit the phones inside! There was a rubber separator and I guess you were supposed to fit the cord through the bottom half, and then rest the earphones on the top half... *sigh*.

This NEW case seems larger, if only because it doesn't have that barrier in the middle. Its also lined with a soft microfiber fabric.

I've run into ONLY ONE issue, and its a small one-- If you are using these with a PC with built-in motherboard sound, these phones are so sensitive that you will hear motherboard noise (for instance, when you move your mouse or click a button you can hear faint hums and buzzes, choreographed to your movements).

I recommend buying a PCI-card with a good Signal-to-Noise ratio.



2 out of 5 stars UE Super fi 5 Pros....Great if they fit   September 13, 2008
tommyboy (the Tollbooth State)
Yes, I did my research and yes, I was aware that some had fit issues with these. Without any quantification of their size or the size of my ear canal I opted to make the purchase. Well, even with the smallest tip I found myself exerting a large amount of pressure to get these things in my ears. Now, even though there was a good deal of physical discomfort for me I can't deny the veils these earphones removed from the music while listening through them. Unfortunately I could not listen for longer than a few minutes at a time and even when the 'phones were removed there was a lingering tingle/burning in my ears. Too bad about the fit because these 'phones offer an excellent musical experience.


4 out of 5 stars Awesome sound....just didn't fit well   September 8, 2008
1963cop (Pittsburgh, PA)
These were the first headphones I bought.....they were absolutely awesome sound-wise. I was disappointed that I could not find a tip that fit my ear. As a result, they were always ready to fall out of my ear. I hated to send them back, but for that kind of money I had to. If you can get them to fit your ear, these are tops in my book!
