90$!?... I got them for.. 190......

I bought them, shockingly for $90 at a Vision's store. There were only 4 in stock, and I remember lining up at 8am to guarantee myself a pair X) That was around 6 months ago, and I've lost all sound in both sides, contacted Monster and sent them for replacement.
With that, I have two questions:
1) If anyone's called in their lifetime warranty on the MDT's, did you get Tributes back, or the new Trumpets? I don't think I trust the new build/look of the Trumpets.. What are the odds I'd get a Trumpet replacement over the preferred Tributes?
2) Since I have a couple weeks to wait, I figured I'd go looking for some new tips to go with the replacement Tributes/Trumpets, but I'm reading that foam sucks here and that silicone sucks from other sites.. What brand/type of tips work best with the MDT's, coming from experience?

Brand new, store-bought, packaging and everything. 
It was like a one day thing, only four in stock, and the asian couple in front of me bought three of them.. Just got lucky I guess!

wow that is very lucky!
$150 is already a good price for them...anything below is a steal lol!
Any recommendation for Amps? I'm looking at the E11, D-zero, and Zo2 but couldn't make up my mind, any extra input are welcome, thanks!

E11 will be nice with it.
ZO2 if you want more bass :D!
If you dont mind the price of the Zo2, get it.
The SoundMagic A10 pairs really nicely with the MDTs IMHO. I have the ZO2 as well, and while the bass is fun the soundstage is significantly decreased with the ZO.

From a very kind head-fier that let his ZO2 go! :)
Ooooooh... I can keep on dreaming ;-)
I got replaced with the Trumpets. :/
They're not that bad! It's just saddening because I wanted the Tributes back.
