Are there any suppliers out there that will send you a selection of different types of tips for IEMs?

In fairness all I'm after at the moment are some hybrid foam/silicone tips but I wouldn't mind trying a few different types of flange etc too.

if you pay for it. many companies sell assortment packs

never heard of any company giving them out for free

Sorry I think I may have been misunderstood there! I'm not after them for free I was just after a selection? Can you name drop anywhere that does selections/packs?

Not sure what IEM you have since different tips fit different IEMs.

I have the shure IEMs and you can get a pack with s/m/l foam/silicon, yellow foam, and triple flange. Forgot where though

Westone has an assortment pack called star tips? http://www.amazon.com/Westone-TRUE-FIT-STAR-Combo-Audiophile/dp/B00DD2BZRY/

Complytips doesn't offer assortments, but they offer different sizes in 1 pack. Edit: nvm they do. http://www.amazon.com/Comply-T-400-Isolation-Earphone-Black/dp/B002P7DBCK/ you gotta look around a bit.

There's also some no name ones like: http://www.amazon.com/Medium-Earphones-replacement-assortment-connector/dp/B00GCSFUIQ/

remember to buy the right ones because there are many different sizes and it may not fit your IEM if you buy the wrong one

Brilliant thanks for your help? I've seen people using the "hybrid" silicone / foam tips? Think they're blue, any ideas where to get those from?

this is the only blue one i know of

you can't really have silicon and foam in 1 tip. It's either foam or silicon on the outside.

Hmm that's what I though, sure someone mentioned it in the Chinese hardware thread, will have a look in a bit.

Could they mean the Sony isolation hybrids?  They had foam in silicone, and the mediums had a blue tube.  AFAIK they were only available aftermarket in Japan, and probably not at all anymore so if you could find them I bet they'd be pricey.
