Hi, don't know if this is the appropriate place/thread to ask a question like this, but:

 

Does anyone know where I can get the Sony Hybrids EP-EX for my TF10(european seller preferable)in a reasonable price?

 

I've found this http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0024NZ6J6/ref=ord_cart_shr?ie=UTF8&m=A1F8YGP86NG3IP
ir
 from UK

 

and this from the US http://cgi.ebay.com.au/B25-Sony-EP-EX10A-Hybrid-Replacement-Earbuds-Buds-Black-/230570012068?pt=Other_MP3_Player_Accessories&hash=item35af0b2da4#ht_2858wt_897

 

Don't know what size will fit me better so I have to buy the complete set with all sizes provided;the original one..

@matte: Glad you like them man, I sure did love mine when I got them. If you have the funds, I would suggest trying the Westone 3s. They have a similar sound signature to the Triples and I'm sure their price will go down a. Tad when the 4s come out.

The OEM is not as nice as the original one why not get the real thing?

Lostearbuds' replacement tips aren't as soft as the genuine sony hybrids, but they have similar shape and is very usable.

Surprisingly, I find the fake hybrids that came with my brainwavz M2 more like the genuine than Lostearbuds'.

Reading this topic of the hybrids, I had a set from my IE8's so thought I would pop them on to see how they sound. Must admit I did not like the sound, the crisp detailed treble was reduced and the mids became more recessed to my ears.
 
I had the middle size silicone and small sillicone UE OEM ones on before but found they slipped out of my ear a little. I have now upped it a size on each ear and now they sit perfectly whilst retaining the wonderful sound I was experiencing before.
 
So for my ears the OEM sillicone tips are perfect. I did however love the hybrids on the Senns!

Don't get Turbines, and save up for Westone 3s or 4s. The turbines are a step backwards in terms of quality.

uhh really? damn it :( I was going to get a good deal though I saw this thread and it made me think twice and considering I live in Aus, warranty claims would be a pain in the ass

Not really, unless you stab the tool through the acoustic filters. I can't imagine how you would accomplish that, though. You just scrape the walls of the sound bores, and if there's any wax then it comes out. Simple.
