Am drawing a blank on this one and don't know where to go in the thread searches for the answer.

What other tips fit the Ety4p?? Seem to remember the Shure Olives might. What about Complys???

Help would be appreciated. Just looking for alternative to the triple flanges

Well, just found the Comply site so that answers one of the questions. So what about Shure?? Nothing on their site about other IEMs fitting their tips

Shure, etymotic and westone IEMs all have the same diameter barrel, with some variations, the Ety 4S and 4p's have a raised ridge at the end which makes some tips very tight (and increases isolation). I think Shure 530's hae a raised ridge in the middle of the barrel. The Westone's don't have any, which makes some tips (Shure yellow foamies) fit sloppy without a bit of scotch tape on the barrel.

Drawing a blank on what model of Shure tips the "olives" are. Need them to fit the Etys. Have a set of large and they're too large plus the package is long gone. So someone supply me with the proper Shure identification please.

You use the white triple flange? Are they too tight? if so, try the blue tri-flanges. I can't use the white tips for more than 5 minutes while I can wear the blue tips for extended periods of time without discomfort.

I have some Comply P series tips for sale, 3 pair (six total) for 10 bucks plus USPS shipping. Private me if you're interested. They are the standard size.
