Ultimate Ears super.fi 5

 

Ultimate Ears adds to its affordable earphone line-up with the $169.99 super.fi 5. Well, they're inexpensive when compared with, say, the company's custom fit, $1,150 UE 11 Pro. The typical Ultimate Ears sound can be found in these 'phones: some extra...

Quality audio performance. Several earpiece options, including new foam eartips. Some passive noise reduction.

Considerable cable thumpnot a great choice for exercise.

Ultimate Ears' super.fi 5 earphones deliver strong audio performance and they fit wellthanks to an abundance of tip optionsbut they're not for the gym.

Ultimate Ears Super.Fi 5 Review [New Version v2]

 

Enter the Super.Fi 5, the newest (and cheapest) member in Ultimate Ear's series of medium-priced earphones. The name couldn't be any more confusing, considering there are two other phones from the same range available, the Super.Fi 5 Pro and Super.Fi 5...

So… who are the Super.Fi 5 actually made for? Ultimate Ears' claim of the SF5 being made for "fashion minded consumers who listen to a variety of music genres" seems about right. In my opinion the SF5 are a good upgrade for people who used some of the...

Best earphones I ever owned

 

I bought these somewhere else on sale for $80!!! They've been sturdy and worked well. The earbuds needs to worm up a little from your body heat to become softer so you can fit them in the ear better. You need to fit them well to achieve good fit, sound...

Clean sound with deep, smooth bass, clear midrange and crisp highs, detachable cable is easy to replace, extra earbuds cost only ten bucks for 4 or 5 pairs. Comfortable for longterm wear and isolate from external sound extremely well. Over-the-ear...

The cable is a bit stiff but that's a tradeoff for the non-tangle feature that works pretty well. If you wear hard-sole shoes your steps with resonate unpleasantly in your head, which is a con with all tight-fitting earphones. They're bigger and stick...

Ultimate Ears Super Fi 5 EB 1/8" (3.5mm) Gold plated Connector Canal Earphone (Black)

 

Replaceable cable, I work with wire cutters all day, knowing if I accidentally cut the wire from my I-pod to the ear buds it's only a simple 20 dollar replacement is a HUGE selling point for me ; They fit comfortably and have never fallen out, even...

Can be a bit bassy if your used to standard Iphone ear plugs, however once you break them in, you won't notice it a bit

ipod's finally got bass

 

it is definitely worth the money, and it makes you listen to your music for the first time.

I got totally blown away by these little headphones, amazing bass with clear mid and high range too, I literally discovered so many details that I never heard with the stock headphone. and the cord is about the right length and VERY sturdy,...

the cord is a little hard to straighten up since it is very sturdy, could come in with more size of tips

Best for the price range

 

These are the best option for under $xxx.

Near perfict sound reproduction. Can produse rich base with tha help of an EQ. Blows away the sony inner earbuds

Tops out at 16,000hz, but that's the limit of the average adult's ear anyways. The felt inside the included case can get the phones linty
