The super.fi 5 — not to be confused with the super.fi 5 Pro or EB models — fills a gap in UE’s lineup between the super.fi 4 and the 5 Pro, hitting the $170 price point. The super.fi 5 has only a single driver per earpiece; it manages to produces good sound, but not at the level of the dual-driver super.fi 5 Pro. UE’s cables feel sturdy, and their rigidity and cable slider keep them from tangling too easily. For an extra $20, you can get the super.fi 5vi, which has an inline module that sends/ends calls and controls music and video on some cell phones, including the iPhone. [DigitalTrends]
