So I have a Ultimate Ears 5vi sitting around for a while now as the small cushions that come with the earphones are still quite large for my ears.  Never had this issue till now.  Anyway, I tried buying ones already off of eBay that were advertised as cushions that would fit but that was not the truth.  I don't want to keep buying random cushions with the hopes that I find an alternative eventually
 
Anyway, has anyone else experienced this issue and can recommend a vendor that sells cushions that will fit the 5vi well but at the same time a little smaller than the small that came with the 5vi?

If you have a pair of tips that came with Monster earbuds, you can try those. I put them on my Super.Fi 4 and they feel much better in my ears. You can also purchase the Supertips made by Monster, I'm assuming those will fit as well seeing as they look like the stock tips filled with foam/gel

Thanks guys...
 
FLee5 - Not sure if I want to use foam.  Never liked the ones that came with my eraphones
 
Gannagorf - know of any places that sell them at an ok price?  $30 seems like a lot for what they are.  Don't like paying the Monster premium

Sony Hybrids should work fine and the XS is very small. Full set should run ~$10 or you may be able to pick up just the XS off of the sale forum here.
