Love my ER4XR but does anyone have a tip suggestion for very tiny ear canals. I tend to have pain after listening for 30+ minutes when inserting with the stock tips (tried all).

Comply foams (their website will you choose tips that fit the ER4 nozzle). This will boost the bass a bit, but should retain most of what you're used to. Or, look for the small long stem tips.
To my knowledge, the bi flange tips Dealux mentioned come with the er4xr/sr if you can find the newer packaging and are not yet for sale.

Thanks for your answer. I only have them for 2 weeks and will try to get accustomed to them because the sound is exactly what I was looking for.

Have you tried these? Very comfortable

Will definitely look into some foams. With comply I did not have great experiences before as the tips started breaking off after just a week in use or so

Thanks, these seem good

Yeah, they're really the only headphone that I keep coming back to. They rate much better than my LCD-2 Fazor and have fairly similar clarity to the HD650 for the timbre.

More proof driver size means nothing at all, How a headphone will perform.

The comply T100 series foam tips are very good and don't "ruin" the sound - try one of the S size version

I've been telling people for a while now - the dual flange EarFills from Future Sonics are my favorite tips for the ER4-XR:

+1 on the Future Sonics tips, I've got them on my ER2XR and my ER4XR. They stay in place better than the Ety triple flange tips and are a bit more comfortable.

They are, you should definitely try them. They feel great and are perfect for small ear canals, they will isolate but fit comfortably and easily. I had exactly the same experience with the complys by the way.

For those that know the Future Sonic tips, I use the Ety large tri-flange and am mostly happy with them, however my right ear always loses a seal where my left one stays rock solid, so I'd like to give these a try. What size Future Sonic tips matchup best with the Ety large tri-flange? Thanks.

So, I have a lot of experience with these. I have almost impossible to fit ears, with most IEMS. I have to tip roll for days to find tips that work for me. And 99% of the time, I need either the largest, or second-largest tips. I have boxes and boxes of small tips from years of buying IEMs, because I could never even come close to using them. HOWEVER - either the SMALLEST, or second to SMALLEST FutureSonics tips are the ones that fit best for me. In fact, with these tips, they are - hands down - the best fitting, most noise-isolating, IEMs or headphones, that I have ever used. I couldn't even remotely use these tips on the FutureSonics Atrios that the tips originally came with. Using the small tips, I am able to insert the ER-4s much deeper than any other IEM. It's a little weird, at first, but I got used to it, very quickly. Combined with a balanced cable, and a Radsone EarStudio ES100 (using Crinnacle's latest EQ curve in the EarStudio app, and the crossfeed set to 3), I have a portable setup that is good enough for me to check my mixes and masters on, for work (I'm a recording engineer).

Plugged my 4SRs into the balanced connection (via a PlusSound cable) on a new ifi hip dac a few minutes ago. This is very good. Every time I come back to these earphones I wonder why I strayed.

I have these which are very comfortable and fit perfectly, the large size is very large and i found the smaller somewhere between the smaller and larger stock

Any news on what's going on over at Ety HQ? I remember a few people wrote that queries weren't being responded to (from late last year AFAIK), so I wondered if anything has changed. Would be a shame if they stopped operating in the same capacity.

I got my case handled after 12 months minus a few days.
Seems to me that the support channels don't work very well since Lucid Audio came in to the picture. Worked out great in the end and I got compensated.
Now I'm still waiting for the balanced cable but that stuff takes time for Etymotic and it has always been that way.
