BA200 tips thread

Saw a similar GR07 thread, and decided to start one for the BA200 as well.

 

Other than the tips included in the package, which includes Tx100 and Ts100 Complys I believe, what tips fit the BA200?

 

Have read about people using Shure grey flexs with them, as well as modded Sony Hybrids.

 

What about others like Shure black silicones? Shure Olives?

 

Etc?

I think a deep fit brings out the best in these phones, so I'd recommend using dual or triple flanges if you can tolerate them.

 

Shure silicons and Olives fit the nozzle, but lead to a slightly darker and muddier sound as compared to deep fitting tips.

 

My favorite tips for the BA200 are the Future Sonics dual flanges that come with the Atrios.

Any other good suggestions as i am not liking the stock complies at all as there is a big mid recession and a muddier bass and overall warmer sound with loss of clarity in all frequencies. The stock duals are all dandy but i am not sure i am getting the best seal as bass just does not feel like i am getting the rich extension as in some listenings i can tilt me head back and get more rumble.

 

EDIT: I had an epiphany and while raking through my tip drawer found out that they have the same nozzle width as etymotic, meaning one thing, Ety triple flanges and so far they really change the sig but make them sound more like the HF5s with better detail and clarity. Mids are pushed forward and bass reduced. I think i still prefer stock duals so far.

Myself, I've settled for the Shure black silicones. The opening is not tiny like the soft grey flex's and it's reasonably comfortable, as comfortable as the Comply's for me.

 

Really want to try TDK's own single flanges but don't know anyone with the BA100 :(

 

I haven't tried Ety's triple flanges but yeah, the stock dual flanges sound the best for me as well. Really too bad it's so unbearably uncomfortable..

If this thread is still alive, I have used the westone grey tips, and imo I think they are the best tips for most iems and the ba200
