ericp10, Strange things these tips...lol. I am finding that wide is good also..... but not so much on the FXT90. I was reading the RE272 thread where someone sugested Senn olives...I asked what they were and he described a silicon tip that had a lower profile...joker called them mushrooms. So, I looked at what I had, and pulled out the tips that shipped with the FXT90....JVC tips...9mm...lower profile, probablly about the same as the Bluecell tips...also 9mm. I've had the RE272 for over a month, about 200 hours on them. With these JVC FXT90 large tips, the RE272, known to be bass light, have picked up more low end, and overall they have lost the dry sound, and they are more musical. Prveviously I had been using the large GR07 silicone tips on the RE272, and I felt those were the best tips until I used the FXT90 tips. The green Sony tips that came with the GR07 also worked very well on the RE272...........exciting times to hear them blossom with the different tips. After returning the 7550, I have ordered the RE262, should be here later this week. I am looking for phones that excell with vocals, as that is the focal point of my library. I do listen to many different types of music, and I felt the 7550 did the best job on the type of country music that I like. The first time I had the RE262, I didn't give them a real chance, sent them back a few days later. Since then I found out how much difference "burn in" and tips can make..
I am finding that the fun in this sport is really in "the chase", and as soon as one thinks they are satisfied.... a new "chase" begins.... making things fun, confusing, and in need of a good bank account. More is better, more is better..........
All that said, I asked you what these Monster foam hybrids were....are you referring to Monster Foam Supertips? I've tried Supertips many times on the FXT90, 272, GR07, and 7550, and they didn't work for me.
Sorry I misse that @ cute. Yes, the Monster foam and silicon Supertips is what I'm referring to. Works great on the FXT90 to my ear. I think shotgunshane likes them too.
