I am mostly using JVC spiral tips / Spin fit tips. Both M size. Changing between them from time to time. Both of them offers the best sound isolation and best fit for me.
I heard the Empire Ears Zeus recently and didn't think it was worth the extra $ over Andromeda.
Has anyone actually found a worthwhile upgrade from the Andromeda, universals not CIEM. Is Tia Fourte the only clear step up?
The andromeda case is tiny, even just upgrading to the stiffer ref8 cable makes it a tight fit
Next on my tip rolling were Comply's comfort and isolation tips. Comfort were the more comfortable of the two but as expected from foam tips you lose a lot of the Andromeda's beloved treble whilst the bass is boosted a bit. I did buy the wax guard version though which comes with a mesh, and some people remark that this mesh does alter the sound but it's relatively difficult to find the meshless version of the comfort in large in Europe
Has anyone tried the Sony Hybrids with the Andromedas?
Just go for Symbio MandarinEs W tips
InEar Profile-8. Look into it. People make comparison to it. I had a short audition, and to me it didn't sound better, but less weightly sound(less warm) with more emphasis on the treble. I really need to more time to get a definitive opinion on which one has the better technical ability.Not really sure where else to ask this so I guess I'll give it a shot here, if this isn't the place then can a mod delete this? What would be the next thing closest sounding to the Andromeda? Essentially what I'm asking for is the Andromeda in a more comfortable shell. I'm fine with any company and my budget is rather flexible. Something universal also, any suggestions?
I had to sell mine due to fit issues and I miss them like crazy. XD. I bought the Vega's and while I am very impressed I'm just finding myself missing the sound signature of the Andros.

Profile-8 has a rounded shell, so it probably fits what you are looking for. It's a general ear shape fit close to customs.
I bought some on Amazon, they work just fine. Now I have the Ibasso CB13 cable and it’s too bulky to use the pouches at the same time. The cable is so thick, it stops any movement within the case. So far, no scratchesHas anyone bought pouches (similar to the red ones that come with the Vega and other models) to store their andromeda in while they're in the case?
