Has anyone in this thread bought the xiaomi mi gold hifi over ear headphones?
Always thought they look great but just found out they come with 3 different types of earcups. Curious if they sound good. Look a lot like grado SR-325i

By SQ I mean:
-Not very bassy
-Very good soundstage
-Good to very good details
Mainly for Trance, Psytrance, Rock,Metal...
 
By sports I mean:
-Won't fall off my ear when running

I remember a few years ago when I had my last earbud before jumping to in-ears, I had bought a pair of silicone eartip/sleeve kind of thing from a local shop. It was shaped like in-ear tip at one side and from other side it was shaped to accept earbud type earphone (Sennheiser MX275 was a perfect fit, that time). 
 
Does anyone know where could I get such 'adapter' silicone tip? Back in those days when in-ear were not even common it did a very good job at isolation even while using an earbud. From memory I liked the sound that way much better than normal use. Pleasure of having a BIG driver in-ear : ) 
 
Just got VE Monks and I'm thinking about purchasing those tips, if available.

VE Monk... available on Ali 
 

 

[leobigfield]

would it be a useful addition to the xDuoo X3?

 
No, it takes a lot of EMI and just boost a little the volume. I have both and my opinion is don't bother. Save for a Fiio Q1, this one made a really nice pairing to my Xduoo X3. The only possible scenario to me is if you're willing to connect two headphones at the same time.

Nah I won't go back to fontopid design!

There are no ZS2 report on AE yet, it looks like they are not sending them while there are lot of ZS1 reviews
What about the QKZ Fonge F1, QKZ C6 Sport?

No no! I think you misunderstood my requirement. I actually need only the silicone tip thing and not the MX270. I mentioned it only as an example because that time I was using it.
