Hey Guys i want to buy tips for my new RE0s. i like the small biflanges that came with the RE0s, but they are a little big for my ear canals. are there any snaller biflanges or triflanges? like the ones that come with the Etymotic ER4Ps? (the tri flanges)
also, any other suggestions for tips? i've heard about Sony Hybrids and the UE single flanges.

I bought some bi-flanges from MEElec, but they're even a bit bigger than the small bi-flanges you get with the RE0's.
Perhaps you can get a smaller size from MEElec?

Interesting. I bought a meelec M3 tip set about a 10 months ago and the biflange was a little smaller and softer than the small RE0 biflange. maybe they've changed.
 
Ive used fake Sony Hybrids too and they work well too if you get the right size.

44 views 2 replies? please help guys, in the various reviews i have read, antonyfirst pointed out towards the UE single flanges(http://www.head-fi.org/forum/thread/383919/review-head-direct-re0), kostalex in (http://www.head-fi.org/forum/thread/405947/re0-rivals-er-4s-beats-e500-and-er-4p) pointed a lot of tips, and in another review, Soundmagic Foamies/ De-Cored Shure olives were recommended (http://www.lynxchandigarh.com/scripts/betaforums/showthread.php?t=1007&page=2). here's the case for me, from the starting of getting my RE0s, i was using the Medium Single flanges. and just this evening, i changed the tips to the Stock Double flanges small ones.i feel that the bass and the sound overall isnt that much clear/full of detail.i am inserting these in the right way and upto the right depth as i read in the Etymotic Research tutorial. with the single medium sized tips, i observe a lot of "shhhh" sounds, i guess called sibilance. with the stock small double flanges, it gets less detailed with no sibilance. please chime in guys, some suggestions would help me. am all noew to the IEM world. used to think EP630s were the best that could have been there.

@paulypaul, do the fake/original hybrids do anything to the sound of thr Hybrids? what are they actually good for? just for fitting?
