I have the SM3 V1 and they came with a large and small set of double flange tips.  The large one fit perfectly.  I wanted to get a few extra pairs, and only 1 universal size is now available, does anyone know if it is the same as the old large?

No longer have the old one to compare, you could always buy triple flanges and cut them down as needed

Definitely an option, but I don't know if the base of the triple would match the size of the old large double.

If it's of any help, I use the double flanges (new) in my V2's (mostly because I'm scared of breaking them with olives like I did last time) and I typically use med-large tips. There's always the Comply solution and the sensaphonics. Once I dremmel a couple of olives I'll be using those . Need the isolation.

Thanks.  I didn't have internet at home for a week, so it's taken a while to respond.  Sounds like the new double flanges might work if comparable to a med-large, if not I'll got the the sensaphonics.

No problem ! 

 Sounds like my inlaws in the hinter lands

I received the replacement universal tips from Earsonics yesterday and they are identical to the old ones, except the stem is 1-2 mm longer for a deeper fit I assume.  Snipped them down to the size of the old ones and they work great.
 
EDIT: Just wanted to mention that the bore of the hole is a bit larger on the replacements vs. the originals, so not "identical", but that difference is mentioned on the earsonics page.

congrats ! Glad they work for you. I noticed the V2's being out of the ear canal a bit more than I remember the V1's being (which is a good thing for my fit). Not quite Shure 530 territory, but out there. That's good because it means I can  use olives if I need to or short comply. Surprised they changed the eartips but they work for me. I'm pretty happy with the double flange silicone though, and I usually hate silicone.
