Hey all,

I was interested in picking up the Ultimate Ears Super.Fi 5Pro headphones because of the great reviews I've heard regarding their base and highs, but am worried that they will be uncomfortable for me because I have really small ear canals. They seem to have a pretty long shape too, but that may be more aesthetics-related than comfort, I'm not sure.

Any feedback from people who've used them?

Or have any other suggestions for me? I've tried the skullcandy headphones because they have super small sized silicon pieces, smaller than most it seems, but the quality was a little bit disappointing.

Thanks

My button stopped working after 2 months. I could not find my receipt. Logitech says they only come with a one year warranty — even though the apple store says they have 2 years — and will charge you $75 to replace them without a receipt (the warranty question is significant since they've only been making them a little longer than 2 years). When I looked around online, I discovered that HUNDREDS of buyers have had the exact same thing happen to them. DO NOT BUY THESE.

What button?

I use the Metro.fi 200's and the silicone tips go to a very small size.

I would imagine the silicone tips are similar on the Super.Fi's.

For what it's worth, I have pretty small ears myself.

There are headphones made for say the iPhone with the answer/end play/pause button thing, and I use Ultimate Ears EB and I love them. As for the warranty, I was able to register my product after buying it for a 2 year warranty.

I would look at the new UE 700s if you are worried about size. They are small and still pack in the dual drivers like the Super.fi 5 Pro.
