Hello.
So, i've had UE super.fi 5 pros for over a year now, and i absolutely love them.
Sound quality aside, they do have their faults. firstly, their clunky size, and also their seal.
in my right ear, i've never been able to maintain a decent seal. Right now, i have mine set up for opposite ears. To say, i swapped monitors, and cables, and put the right monitor in my left ear, and vice versa.
that has increased the quality of the fit immensely, however i sill can't get the dang right one to stay in!
I have a pair of Shure e5c's which i purchased the fabulous olive foamies for. I must say, they have an excellent seal, and i love them.
I remember reading a post last year about the shure olives being able to squeeze onto the super.fi's. I'm trying that right now, but with no great success.
I went to the UE site, and saw this: http://www.complyfoam.com/Partner/Product/T%7B48%7D500-/Model/Super.Fi-5-Pro
under the accessories page. only thing, is they're $15
when i got a 5-pair pack for $12 last year of the shure olives!
are there any other 3rd party foam products for the super.fi 5 pro?
i really don't want to pay $15 for foamies, but i will if that's the only option (and i can't get the shure one's on).
and, if anyone's tried them, are the above linked washable like the shure olives?
