Yeah, I'm waiting for that, too. They do look alike, a little more tapered. I usually cut off a bit off the tapered end of the Comply tips.

They actually expand much more than I first thought, you get a foam type of fit in a soft flex style. Highly recommended if your IEMs can take them.

I was using the medium soft flex and the new foamies are very close to the same size, if that helps anyone pick out the size you need.



Were they bigger or smaller than the soft flex size? Because if they were just a tad bigger I'd get smalls.

EDIT: YES! 100th post.
Darn! first post on second page.

I'm getting mine in the mail tomorrow and am very excited. I love the yellow foamies. They seal and are very comfortable. However they just don't last long enough. These sound very promising!

they look about the same size, very close, but are much snugger in my ear. You can, like the foamies, scrunch them down a bit and let them expand in the ear. I am amazed at how much isolation I get and how much more of the IEM stage I get when the seal is so tight...

Notice how much larger the opening is at the nozzle tip.

they're supposed to be washable ie last forever, right?

They are foams so I don't think they can last forever: after some time foam will lose some features (for example foam will longer expand in your ear canal)

I'm using S size sleeves. Will M size black foam sleeves fit or earphones will stick out?
When will new sleeves be available at Ebay.com? Unfortunately, Earphonesolutions.com doesn't ship to Poland...
