There are many posts earlier in this thread about Etymotic tips on DBA-02's. Pretty sure the ER4 tips are the correct size. Here's a good source. I tried the Shure bi-flange tips (same as regular Ety tri's minus the smallest flange) which have a much longer, trimmable nozzle tube. They didn't fit my ears, so they are FS. Send me a PM if you're interested.
Quote:Also I have a question to everyone who has had experience with Etymotics/Monsters Tri-flanges on their own pair of DBA-02s. I'm looking to purchase some additional Tri-flange tips myself since I'm intending to relegate the default Tri-flanges to my CK100 since they tend to fit on them as well, am also curious if other brands would work better in terms of comfort wise. So for the Etymotics and Monster brands of Tri-flange tips, may I kindly know what model no. are you guys using on your own DBA-02? I just noticed that Etymotics have a whole range of models for their Tri-flange tips, ranging from model ER6i-18 to the latest ER5-15SM mean for the HF5. The Tri-flange designs btw them looked drastically different from each other, so I'm just trying to gather which model no. will fit the DBA-02, and possibly what fit experience you have with each model since I have no idea if they have any differences in terms of nozzle fit sizes. I will be asking my japanese friend to purchase them from a japanese webstore, and as these tips seem to cost almost similarly to Comply tips which is not exactly cheap, I will need some opinions first before deciding which to purchase in order not to make a wrong purchase for these.
TIA.
Bumps, for my question again. Really hope there's someone who has had experience with Etymotics/Monster Tri-flanges tips with their DBA-02s. Although I do understand from reading the other CK10 appreciation thread here on this forum, the Etymotics/Monster Tri-flanges will fit with my CK100 just fine since the nozzle sizes are the same between CK10/CK100, I still hope to actually find out which Etymotics sleeve models will fit the DBA-02 better, as it's actually my regular "out-and-about" portable IEM these days whenever I'm outside. Also Tomscy2000 has mentioned in his previous post abt the Monster SuperTips, I would also be interested in knowing if this will be a good fit as well as providing good sound combination for the DBA-02, probably considering going for the Gel Audiophile Kit instead of the Foam Kit since I already have my ER-CK100 foamies with me. The Monster SuperTips are only sold in kit sets from what I'm seeing from their official webstore, so since they aren't exactly cheap I will need to gather some opinions first, before putting down my money for a set.
