Does anyone know any seller in the USA that selling these Japan Spinfit tips? Or you can only get it from Japan?

OK...
 
just installed the M size on mu Shure SE846
 

 

 
I had to create an adapter from a pair of Shure foam buds.
 
After a very quick listening session i was quite disappointed...bad isolation and bass killed!
The problem was that i inserted the spinfit fully on the "DIY Shure Adapter".
 
Moreover, inserted fully, the spinfit wasn't spinning at all!
 
So make sure to leave around 2mm between the adapter and the spinfit, as per my photo.
 
Noise isolation is poorer compare to the foam bud. That's quite normal, since the spinfit "membrane" is very tin. 
 
It seems not to to be an issue when playing music.
 
When music is off, you can talk to someone, i like that! Previously, with the foam bud i always had to remove one of the earphones in order to listen or talk to someone.
 
Finally regarding the sound improvement, i will come back to you later. It is a bit too soon to have a clear point of view on this matter. Nevertheless, it sounds goooood!!!

Don't those Foam tips make the sound quality worse compare to silicone? It's just that Foam tips have better noise isolation right?  I tried Foam, Gel, and Silicon tips.  Silicone give the best sound reproduction.

I totally agree. Foam tips kill the sound for me on any iem I own. I only use silicone tip and for some iem's the spinfits work magic. I also use them on my 846 with excellent results. Opens the sound stage dramatically for me.

It's funny but one of the often complaints I read about the 846 is that the sound stage is limited. I also experienced this with the stock cable and tips that were supplied. Once I changed the cable and used spinfits the sound stage opened and is glorious with width and depth to match anything I've heard. Of course, a good source and the quality of the recordings are also very important.

100% agree!!!
 
this wednesday i will get a new cable for the 846...
 
Whiplash TWag 2 Gold. I expect a lot form it since i read impressive review on it.
 
my portable rig will slowly be as good as my main one!

Here you go:  http://www.ebay.com/itm/Pure-Solid-Silver-Shure-SE535-SE425-SE315-SE846-UE900-Fidue-A83-upgrade-cable-/181650410268?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item2a4b354b1c
 
I have ordered three cables from this guy in Latvia for different iem's and his service is fast and perfect. I warn you  that the cables are stiff since they are solid silver but they sound amazing. He has also done custom work for me. Very easy guy to work with and good English.

I just got my Spinfits from Dopaminer. Took two weeks from Japan to me in Western Canada. I don't have the IEM's that I bought them for, as I sent them back for warranty work. But trying them on my RHA T10i's, the sub bass and treble are better with the bass filter on. I can't wait to try them on my Aurisonics ASG -2.5's.

Do you know how big is the Spintip nozzle (the part where you connect the tips to your IEM)? Like is it 5mm?

I got the red core ones, and it looks like they are indeed 5mm, according to my measurements.

Do you think that will fit the ASG-2.5 ? I know the ASG-2.5 has a large nozzle
