Just put some Shure Black olives on my SA6's. Oh boy, it really feels like it's a one way trip for these tips, it's a very tight fit.
Yeah, comfort level 1000% better. Sound quality not really all that big an improvement, actually it's the other way around. Bass suffers a bit because I'm just not getting quite an airtight seal as I do with rubber ear tips. I suppose I could step up in size for the Black Olives, but that would hurt my ears for extended listening.
I will say one thing, I forgot how well foamies help with reducing microphonics. Much less microphonics than with rubber ear tips.
The Shure Black Olives will probably make the SA6's my go to wireless earphones soon.
