Best tips for me is KZ Star tips. It has the most perfect bore diameter and fit for my ears. The problem is, it has no notch to get it stay in place of the nozzle. Between these and Symbio Manderine wides for me.

Anyone have recommendation for double-layered tips that look like this? I have a pair of these concert earplugs, they're double-layered I guess, I don't know how to describe them. Anyways, I get a VERY good seal with them plus they're waaaaaay more comfortable than any earphone tip I have which starts to often hurt after 20-50 minutes. This might be because the nozzle on earphones is bigger or something, I dunno but these tips are really perfect on the earplugs, I just want a quality earphone version of them now:

I'm looking to buy some spinfit cp eartips. Which ones have the widest bore diameter? I like my symbio W and so i'm looking for a spinfit CP with a wide bore. I know there's a CP220, 230, 240, etc.

No one has a bore as wide as Symbio one. Have a try with the CP240 L, they're excellent.

Yeah Spinfit makes double-flange tips but they're a bit pricey unless you know they're going to be a perfect fit.
I just make my own with cheapo triple flanges from Ali or E*** and cut the top flange off like so:
Also, Klipsch double flanges are the softest and most comfortable if you have narrow-nozzle IEMs like Etymotic or Westone.
CP230 has the widest bore of the three.

i noticed iems that have a short stem definitely benefit from longer tips as tri flange ones especially if you deep er canals, I tried a generic triple flange with my empire ears legend x, and was wondering which company makes the best triple flange tips out there

I wasn't replying to you. The subject is what is the best tips and I replied with my answer. If I was replying to you I would have quoted it like how I am now.

This might be the wrong thread, but I've been looking for cheap/budget foam tips. I've had Complys before, and while they were great, they are too pricey for me, especially since I had to replace them every few weeks.
Try with Westone Truefit, more durable.

New Bee are a popular cheap foam alternative. I find the medium New Bee foams to fit like a large Comply FWIW.
