Standard EE fair with respect to size-- I found them quite manageable. RE the reviews...the Bravado II is another IEM that I don't think got a really fair shake. I was very pleasantly surprised at now nice they were when I heard them. If it weren't for my aversion to more v-shaped IEMs lately I'd probably have owned a pair...the bass and treble on those is top tier, and it's a pretty low entry point for EE's TOTL bass driver.
Yeah, I'd be curious to try them out what with their being on sale. It seems like I can enjoy the bass-heavier tunings more any way.
Funny thing with all my fit issues is that the EXT generally seems ok thus far, though I've found I can actually situate them so the cable points down and as long as I have a seal the response doesn't appear all that impacted. It reduces that "in your ear" feeling at the expense of their sticking out just a little more. Not that they're supposed to be worn that way, but just curious if some people might do anything similar.
Trying a size up on the Spiral Dots++ (MS) helped get a better seal. I did get a bit of irritation in one ear, but I think it's because I've been tip rolling and adjusting them a lot early on in the midst of figuring all that out.
