1plus2 and the JVC spiral tips are a great match!
Thankfully someone on the Ref1 thread posted a good ebay seller. Japan to the US in 8 days.
Really? How great are great?? Im using the Ortofon and Heir tips without issue...
I mean those spirals are kinda expensive...are they worth it?
I think they were $20+ so pricey, but not outrageous.
Ortofons were too flexible, couldn't get a good seal and not stable. I tried complys but they ate up the treble. Monster supertips gel and foam sounded nice but were too stiff to fit well. Auvio hybrids were pretty good, but the sound was somewhat aggressive and a little too dynamic, if that makes any sense. The JVC spiral enhance the soundstage and detail and make it more 3D. It sounds musical and less sterile. And the material is a little softer than the Auvios, but not super flexible like the Ortofons. So they seal great but give stability. The diameter is slightly smaller than the Auvios.
The JVC spirals seemed overhyped but after getting them I'm very happy.
