Anyone tried any comply tips on the er4?

I think a lot of people use comply tips with their ER4. I use T-100 on mine, but I'd like to try out the Ts-100.

Yep.  They're good, as are the Shure Black (olive) foamies.

This hasn't been mentioned much, but with the recent talk of other IEMs people use alongside their ER-4s, which of them have the slender barrel and deep fit the ER's offer?
 
For me, this is a big deal because other IEM's I've tried are larger and don't fit as deeply or as snugly. Some touch parts of the outer ear and cause pressure/pain after a while, or just feel uncomfortable. With the ERs, I simply forget they're even in there with that snug seal.

there is the kipsch. But the problem with almost all deep IEM fits is the microphonic. I was able to reduce it by using the foam tip which came with the ER4S, however the triple flange is just way too much microphonics.

I have never liked flange tips. Something about the rubber - I don't like the feel of it. Comply's all the way for me.

I use x10 on the side. I do not think microphonics is that bad. But the cable is very fragile, but that's another story...

Complys are great, but they wear out really fast and are a pain to clean.

I haven't found that to be the case. I put them in a zippered or velcroed pants pocket and wash them with my laundry. One pair lasts several months.

Yeah idk why I even said that. Only downside I've found with these (if you can even call it a downside) is that the isolation is so good, people try talking to me and I can't hear a thing they're saying. Then I have to take them out of my ears to hear what useless bs this person is telling me, and then put them back in perfectly like they were ugghhhh. The inconvenience!

The triple flange last me 6-8 months, based on 1-2 hours of average usage a day. On the other hand the lovely foam that etymotic offer lasts me 1-2 months. I think I should look into custom tips for this.
And I think the obvious follow up is anyone has tried the custom tips, do they like it?

How do the triple flange last only 6 months for you? They should last much longer than that.
