I decided to give the Xelastec tips a try. Really good! And darn well better be, as they're stupid expensive for just tips!

Best IEM tips?
- Thread starter lilboozy
- Start date
What if your earbuds are lacking in treble a bit? You think they will worsen? I have been eyeing the final type e for tws for a few weeks now but not pulled the trigger yet because I'm unsure about sizing.
If u want a bit more treble, u can consider wider bore ear tips eg Tenmark Whirlwinds. I read that the clear final E tips (not the black ones) also boost treble, but haven't tried that, maybe we can confirm with @RikudouGoku about this.
Don't get the black Final E tips or in general, foam tips if you find the treble lacking, as they tend to tame the treble.

I use the clear type e on a very dark iem like the final e5000 to make it less dark. But it won't change the signature much and if you are lacking treble it will still lack treble.If u want a bit more treble, u can consider wider bore ear tips eg Tenmark Whirlwinds.

I would use wide bore tips if I wanted more treble quantity.
Final E will reduce the treble in my experience. As others have said, choose a wide bore model, preferably with hard bore interior.What if your earbuds are lacking in treble a bit?

A long stem will reduce the bass which also will make the rest of the frequencies more prominent.
However since you're going to use it on a TWS I can't give a specific recommendation because with tws the question is whether or not the case will accommodate the new tips.

Yeah, that's why I have to look for tws versions of eartips. Still, not all tws versions would fit all cases since sizes varies across the board. I guess my best bet is to buy from Amazon so I can at least return if it doesn't fit in case.
I have slightly weak treble on my Melomania Touch but it's good for my music (just some vocals sometimes sound bit flat but I EQ'd by raising up the highs). I am big on comfort and I guess I could use slightly improved mids. Lows are more than good enough - some might consider it big too much, but it's fine for most rock/pop.

I emailed final and they told me final type e for tws are coming to Amazon soon!
Does anyone know where to find or purchase the gray foam like tips that come with TinHifi IEMs?

There is lot of praise for Elecom Spare ear cap (EHP-CAP10) on audioreview.org. These are not costly as well. But, these tips are only available in Japan and it is hard to source it from Amazon Japan or any other e-commerce platform in Japan. I wish someone from Japan here in this forum would help me to get these silicontips.
Does anyone know if Kbear bought Acoustune? I see a local seller selling the Acoustune AET07 as "Kbear 07" likewise with the 08.
@WendyLi perhaps?
(I guess I should've said "a set of IEMs that look identical to the Acoustune, down to the color and size combinations: white for M, black for M-, etc)

Hi friend, could you send a link of Acoustune AET07? They may just look similar.

This is the Acoustune:
This is the kbear 07 (note that the color are identical, except for the light blue of the M+ size which Acoustune doesn't have)
And the Kbear 08:

I've fallen down the eartip rabbit hole a whee bit after trying to get my Blon BL01s to sound just right... So far I've tried Sony hybrids (love them on my IER-M9), Spinfits (found it helped bring up mids), and Final E tips (found it boosted the low end, and extended the high end). Oh and I absolutely loathe KZ starlines
-How do the EarFit lights compare to the normal EarFits? I saw they were a lighter material which sounded interesting though wondering if the bore gets squished more easily too
-I did noticed people on Amazon suggesting dropping a size down for sedna xelastecs? Has that been your alls experience especially when compared to Final tip sizing?
Thanks!
