  Hey guys, I found a source for the Sony tips. May I know which ones are the better ones?

Apparently the hybrid tips don't have foam in them while the isolation ones do.
 
Thanks!

Isolation are the ones I use. @nmatheis uses them, too. They're really very good.

The Isolation tips are far superior - the durability of silicone + the fit and isolation of foam.  Win / Win.

That's helpful. Hmm too much choice...
ED9, Macaw, MKLL, A65, other good ones under $100

So much good stuff has coming out all at once it seems in the past month or two. Kudos to you pioneers trying and buying gear, really. Thanks for the impressions and help guys. Cheers!

The ED9 has good basd impact , much more than the B3's even with brass filters. You can get the for $10 so I'd start there and see what you think of them.

Nice...Impressions about the A73 please!

My initial impressions are:

The A65 is absolutely stunning for the $60 price range. Great balanced sound, very good detailed and articulate signature. They're not for bass heads, but the bass is great when needed. A very good all rounder.

The A73 an absolute gem! Crisp, clear and ultra open sound with amazing separation and imaging. Big bass response with the mid bass bloom which makes male vocals thick and forward. Mids are a bit recessed but is relatively balanced with good accuracy. Treble is sublime, can get a little hot but it has awesome sparkle and energy. These might be my new favourite IEMs.

Another great thing I forgot to put in the review is that they sound frigging amazing from a cell phone or a high end DAP.

Their high sensitivity allows me to drive them easily. I can't turn it past 1/2 way on my g3 without them getting too loud.

It's a great time for IEMs that's for sure!
