@pawdiophile I'm impressed with your test.

If I am looking for tips:
1. with the widest possible bore, but so that there is no narrowing inside the barrel
a straight barrel from the insertion lip to the barrel.
2. at the same time, so that these tips are short , and the softest

Am I interpreting your description and photos correctly?
Which of these tips might be closest to what I am looking for?
No. 1 - TRI Clarion?
No. 2 - Divinus normal bore ?
(I know there is a version of them Dizinus Wide but it is a strange shape of the tip and they have a narrowing in barrel)

I also have a whole collection of tips but narrow, I am looking for an alternative to the original tips for the Oriolus Szalyi IEM - wide bore ,short nad soft.

Tri Clarion might be what you're looking for. Wide bore and short. I currently use them with the Kiwi Ears Punch. You might also want to look into a set of original JVC Spiral Dot. Not as short, but wide bore.

When writing JVC Spiral Dot which model are you thinking of,,which has the widest barrel along its entire length:
EP-FX-9M-B, EP-FX10,EP-FX11 or EP-FX12 there are several models.

Manufacturers also do not help by stating that you can put on a tip from 4mm to 6mm with a large tolerance.

I will also stretch a very narrow tip, no, that is not the way to make it deformed. That is why I am looking for the widest possible but short one.

I've finally received the Divinus Prism, and I got to say, for my ears (largeish canals, sensitive and deep-insert averse), they are awesome.
I think the bulbous Divinus signature shape works really well for me, and the liquid silicone texture is grippy and soft. Small ears beware, perhaps the shape+wide (wide!) bore combo might be too much.
I'd be curious about a hypothetical "normal bore" Prism, if they ever make those!
Regarding effect on sound, maybe a bit of illusion of a larger stage, and I didn't hear a hit on bass (using them on Kz PRX, this might be nozzle dependant).
By the way, having received the tips and a couple cables, I have reminded myself the extent to which cables can impact comfort and fit (no changes to sound, that's plain old cowpoop), especially the shape of the 2 pin connectors: even a slight rotation can change the nozzle angle into the ear canal, it's night and day!

The EP-FX9M-B. How much it stretches/expands depends on the size of the IEM nozzle (obvs). If you want short and wide, check out the Divinus Wide Bore or the Tri Clarion.

The reason most wide bores narrow is so that they actually fit and stay on your IEM nozzle. I've got a couple tips with very wide bores that don't narrow and they have never fit on any of the 20 or so IEMs I've tried them on. I wouldn't recommend them personally.

Please give me those models with a very wide bore along the entire length, without any narrowing in the barrel - I'll take the risk.
