Can anyone tell me a compatible comply tip for RE0?. I just bought a pack of comply tips from ebay and it doesn't fit.

T400s fit the RE0

It will not fit without the plastic tube. I find that it dulled the highs both in quantity and quality, I switched back to the stock tips after using the Complys for a week.

I use the medium single flange silicone tips (iems upside down and cables over the ears), i get the best seal this way.
I have put the T400s on them as they are (you dont have to decore them), but i couldnt get a good seal with the complys.
I think the complys might help the bass a bit but mute the highs slightly.
Im very happy with the SQ of the RE0s.

The thing is my ear canal is very small, so I have trouble fitting the stock bi-flanges even. So what tip would you guys suggest I get?.

The Bi Flanges are too big for my ears too.
I find the stock medium tips are a better fit, but upside down.

Unfortunately that is the only tip that fit even slightly. Because right and left canals are also pretty different in size. Right now I'm using the stock bi-flanges I got with PL-30.

I'll be getting customs eventually, for now it's way out of my budget. Meantime I'll try the upside down method.

@ OP: You may want to try UE Super.fi/Triple.fi single flange silicone tips. They fit my ears much better than any of the stock tips. I also find the bi-flanges too large - my ear canals are quite narrow.

Try it with those Soundmagic PL30 black foamies. I managed to get a very good seal with them every time - they almost make my Olives redundant.

I do not recommend any foam tips with RE0 as they may have a negative effect on treble quality and clarity. At least all the ones I tired did and I tired Shure olives, Ety foams and Complys.

PL30 bi-flanges were very nice. I haven't tried the foamies yet. Will give it a try. I must say as Painist said foam tips does make the overall sound go dull a bit.
