Hi
 
I'm using Brainwavz M2 now and I'm really enjoying. I like even more than Sony MH1C
 
I tried with stock tips and Sony hybrids but I was not satisfied. Then once I tried with tips which came along with Sony Ericsson headset which looks cheap but the sound quality is more than stellar. Mainly the seal, bass response etc. That was surprising for me as even $10 Sony Hybrid didn't give the seal as this cheap ones did. 
 
These ear tips are really complicated. Don't know which one suits my ear
 
Now I'm not sure what will I do if I miss this ear tips. Is there any other ear tips which will give a good seal and good bass response for M2?

Have a look on eBay.

After a few purchases you gather a nice selection of tips usually, though if I need a spare set or alternative I usually find something there. Be sure to play around with different tip lengths and bore size (the hole in the middle) you can achieve slightly different sound, most importantly you want a good seal.

Nozzle size are rather large on these yes. Have been using the buyincoins biflanges http://www.buyincoins.com/new_en/details/8-x-pairs-double-mp3-ears-earphones-headphone-in-ear-silica-gel-buds-tips-product-7700.html, wide enough and dirt cheap. Gel supertips also work.
 
Tried stretching the MH1C tips over these real hard, and surprisingly they fit after a fair bit of elbow grease. Sadly don't have any more of them (might be some of the best silicones I've tried period) :frowning2:
 
Would not recommend foams like the wider Complys, way too gooey sounding.
