After finding an optimal EQ and changing the eartips on my Sony XM4's to the ones from my Soundpeats T2 these sound EXCELLENT, lots of clarity even if I would maybe want.... even more of a balanced sound. Could probably dial back the bass a bit to make it less warm-sounding but I don't want to mess with the EQ too much because this is the first time i'm not sitting trying to dial in the EQ with every damn song I listen to.

It really sounds natural and open too which I didn't think it did with the stock tips and the EQ's I used first.
The issue that I have now is that the tips aren't sealing especially well because they're a tad bit small and also make the earbuds feel... not very secure in the ears.
They're actually not falling out or anything but if I push them in/try to twist them to get a deeper fit they almost instantly shift back into the original position sitting so the eartip is really shallow in the ears.
This means somewhat poor ANC/isolation and just the feeling like they're going to fall out even if they actually don't. I mean they might if I were to run or anything like that, but even shaking my head they're staying in place. Would really want a bigger eartip that helps them sound like this but also fit deeper, and for some reason Amazon doesn't sell Spinfits 360 in my country and paying import taxes and stuff if I order them from the US seems like a hassle.

Any alternatives that have either a big size L or even XL size eartips that doesn't completely bork the isolation/ANC but still improves the mids and treble over the stock tips?

Also, does anybody have any advice on what to do when your ears are hurting from earbuds except for just stopping the usage for awhile?

It started out with the Soundpeats being a tad too big which made my ears a bit sensitive, but then the Earfun Free Pros who are much smaller honestly made it worse because I could really get them to have a deep fit when they probably weren't meant to sit that deep, which tended to hurt even more. Now the Sonys don't hurt except for when I put them in and when I twist the earbuds, it's basically the inside of my tragus that hurts so it's not like the ear canals, it's probably the skin that has gotten chafed or something. Anyone that has any experience with this?

Just placed an order for some CA MT's to upgrade my MW07 GO's. Hope they are largely fault free ;)

Wanted ANC in my next pair but too many compromises with all current top offerings around the €300 mark for me. Guess up next for consideration should be something new from Sennheiser and also CA again in the not too distant future.

I don't get it. There's no way to buy it from their web site. I click on buy and it opens the same page again. Doesn't put anything into the cart. How did you do it?

Oh, I see. If I log on from EU it will let me put it in cart. But I can't ship to USA. If I select North America - US, it won't allow me to put it into the cart.

I'm thinking something is wrong with their website. I bought mine directly from them about a month ago and I'm in the US.

Sorry for hogging this thread, but for anyone interested, here is a portion of Cambridge Audio's email response :

"Due to high demand, shipping issues and delays, and a worldwide shortage in some electronic components that are affecting almost all manufacturers, we are currently experiencing some stock shortages and long lead times in production and deliveries. Please rest assured we are working hard to ensure that Melomania Touch is available as soon as possible. I will do my best to get an estimate on what we expect Melomania Touch to be available again for you, but please be aware because of the reasons outlined above any timeframe we provide can be subject to change at any time. Also, it won't be possible to order Melomania Touch from regions outside the US and get them delivered to the US."

I mean they never stopped and parts of China just went into lockdown again over Delta. It's only going to get worse.

Far be it from me to play devil's advocate, but this might be the time to put a couple more purchases on the credit card in case we're asked to bunker down again.
