Okay, thanks.

Has anyone tried the flex sleeves? Better or worse?

I definitely prefer the foam ones. I don't like the soft flex much, just doesn't feel as comfortable, as secure or even as sound isolating compared to the foams.

Olives provide noticeably better seal / bass response, and comfort.
(at least, to my ears)

I used flex sleeves on my E2Cs before I bought UEs and found olives. The flex sleeves were comfortable, had a good seal, and decent sound isolation. The Olives are REALLY comfortable (8 hours a day is no problem for me), have amazing seal, and excellent sound isolation!

Hi Folks,

 

i used on my Shure SE315 always the 

Gray Soft Flex Sleeves

and was very happy with them. 

 

Is there something for Sennheiser IE8's? They sound great but don't fit really.
