I really dig the AzlaSednaEarfit tips, either light or regular. Because of the firmness of the tip, they tend to hold a seal much longer and tend to stay put in the opening of my ear canal longer than most other ear tips I tried. I prefer them most for a "shallow" fit, if that makes any sense.
Best IEM tips?

Got a second pair of the Azla Crystal TWS today, this time in L and now that it makes a better seal these are pretty nice. They're very short-stemmed so the grill of the MEST Mk2 fits flush with the top of the tip so there is literally no material between the grill and my ear. Sound is pretty good, I've only had about 20 min on them so I'll need a bit longer to form a full opinion. So far out of all I've tried, I'm down to three TWS style tips and three traditional longer tips that I really like:
TWS:
Final E TWS
Azla Crystal TWS
E-Pro TW00
Traditional:
Spinfit CP100
Final Type E
Azla SednaFitLight Short
The three traditional tend to give a bit extra oomph to the low end and the TWS are bit more neutral and open.

@RikudouGoku Bro I just got the Elecom EHP CAP20 tips thanks to your guide. These are fantastic, could never get a seal with the Final E but these do the trick. I use them with a spacer on the Kato

These are a buy. Shockingly good. Think cross between Xelastec and regular silicone; not sticky. Soft, transparent sound, and very comfortable (doesn’t make my ears warm). Glad I got 2 pairs because I probably can’t use anything else.
Like clouds in my ears.
ePro aren’t anything special. They are soft and wide bore. Maybe I would have liked them more in isolation without the AEX50

Btw, how are the Whizzer Easytips SS20 (soundstage) tips? Have anyone tried them?

The AEX50s look really interesting. I guess the wings help with the seal? Would definitely be interested in hearing more impressions on how they affect the sound. They are a bit pricey to just randomly buy--35 bucks with shipping included, and I would likely have to pay another 5 or so in taxes when they arrive.

I’m curious about them too. But they look very shallow/short stem.

Yep better seal for sure. Final E tips have been my go to as they have the best comfort and bass. I think the AEX50 exceed that comfort, have similar bass quantity, but don't sound as closed in as the Final E. But it's really the material and comfort that sells them for me.
They look that way but the stem is longer than the equivalent size Xelastec.

Really like AZLA SednaEarfit Crystal, much better than stock tips or Complys I've used before. Soft, non sticky, keep the shape, good isolation.

TENNMAK foams are the best I've tried. Very durable and they remain compressed longer than most others. That makes them easier to insert. WAY CHEAPER too, at US$8 for 6 sets.

@Hddad70 has posted a review on Moondrop Springtips:
https://www.head-fi.org/showcase/moondrop-spring-tips.25853/reviews#review-28520
They mentioned in their review that there are now XL's.
I find springtips to be a bit small, so only useful on iem's with longer nozzles, so was happy to see the larger size and have ordered a set.

The L was too small for me in Springtips. An XL would probably fit. I’ll have to try them again.

Yeah, the Tenmak’s are pretty good depending on the IEM. I’ve also had good success with the Campfire and Symbio foams, I reckon either are better than Comply, ymmv of course.TENNMAK foams are the best I've tried.

I have a problem with buying disposable tips that cost almost as much as SpinFits. The Comply do offer the widest choice for size and shape, if you have an IEM with a small nozzle. You also get the option of the earwax guard if that's a problem for you. So I can see why some people like them.
