Stock tip is the best
Mochill have spoken. So, will have to try to get the fit right as it still too early to tell having only gotten my pair a few hours ago. But, alternative suggestion when necessary would still be appreciated.

Hello!!!
I have the VSD1S (they are magnifficent btw). If anyone has them and bought VSD3S also,
is there noticable upgrade overral ,especially in sound quality???
Yes, they're a big upgrade over the VSD1S in almost every department.
I compared them to the VSD1 here: http://www.head-fi.org/t/669510/the-new-iem-of-vsonic-vsd-3s-impression-updated-by-smailbz/1695#post_10687161
Here's Kova comparing them to the VSD1LE: http://www.head-fi.org/t/669510/the-new-iem-of-vsonic-vsd-3s-impression-updated-by-smailbz/1680#post_10685661
So, my pair is on the burn right now but have to ask for suggestion for tips as the stock tips aren't working with my ears. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Are they too big, or too small? If they're too small, try the large stock single flange. They open the stage up but make the bass a little less focused. You could also try Sony hybrids. They bring the mids forward quite a bit and tame the treble, but there's a bit of a darker quality to the sound. I use the stock mediums on mine, FWIW. Looking forward to your thoughts on them.

I would personally prefer a hard case for added protection. As I've just gotten mine, I have no idea how to keep the colour longer except that to give it some TLC. One thing I always have inside my hardcase is a piece of good quality ultra soft cleaning cloth which I use to clean the housing and plug after use. So far most of my iems are still looking good, some as long as 3 years old.

What is TLC?
If the tips is not working, have you tried with your other tips form other iems?

I love the color and hope it lasts long.
Anyway which way is safer to keep the iem in pouch or in hardcase as in beyer or beats?
Also is there any suggestion to keep the translucent color lasts longer?
Clamshell/hard case/zippered case offer much safety and longevity of iems than draw string/magnetic pouches.......
One more suggestion tho, order an budget IEM that has the clam shell supplied as stock like meelec,jlab brands which are well under $20.and offer bang for the buck SQ........instead you spending $5-$10 for just the case alone +S/H if applicable.... Other mfr also offer hard cases but they are pricier....like for eg: bwavz M5, klipsch etc but the objective is not met, which is cheap way to get case and nice sounding IEM.

Thanks guys for putting forth all the suggestion. Greatly appreciated.

Stock tips both bi-flange and single flange M fits well and sounds good to me and latter is better to former,meelec M6 M tips fits well too,to me.
How do you wear it?native or straight down? Alternative is to try from your IEM collection or order the after market tips......

That's exactly what I'm using - the best sound and isolation!!!
Btw, my VSD3S review is up: http://www.head-fi.org/products/vsonic-vsd3s-black-high-fidelity-professional-quality-stereo-inner-ear-earphones/reviews/11294
though, my impression of upper mids/vocals is slightly different from Mo's
VSD3 is on it's way...

Hi, how these headphones sound with SanDisk Sansa, better than Vsoniс VSD1S?

I just couldn't get along with the loss of detail and darker feel of the hybrids. If you like mids forward and treble smooth, they're a good option, but the stock tips sound a lot better to my ears. Then again, I tend to prefer brighter sounds and detail and clarity over smoothness, even if it is a tad artificial (this has never really bothered me, but I guess I've just never what "legit" treble sounds like

Haven't used a sansa, but it sounds better through all the sources I've used so, as stated above, yes.

A great showcase of what they do well:
The low texture of the djembe, the raw, natural voice, the brightness of the guitar, and the overall soundstage. Some really wonderful stuff in there.
OMG SPICE AND WOLF! <3 I love that anime so much. It's a shame they only made two seasons. I'm not down to pay ~$10 per light novel so I got them all in PDFs, LOL!

Agreed, I found the perfect fit with the stock tips.
