WHERE DO YOU GET REPLACEMENT TIPS FOR THE JVC MARSHMALLOWS?

[edstrelow]

Anyone know where to get replacement eartips for the JVC Marshmallows? I didn't see anything on Amazon, or JVC's own site.

^very generous... if only someone would gimme some olives =)

so yea, you can replace the tips with shure tips (E2C models)... i use the orange foam ones, but lots of others also use the black olives/black foam?

using these tips require you to pull out the gray tubing on the original marshmallows tho... easily un-modded also (takes 1 minute)

Don't bother replacing them. I don't know if you've heard of the new JVC HA-FX66's, but they cost about the same as the Marshmallows if you get them on sale. Anyway, they're supposedly awesome for the lower price range. I haven't tried them, but all the customer reviews I've seen (that's about fifteen) say they're secure fitting, very comfortable, have good isolation, and sound great (well except one, where the guy probably had them in wrong, since his description of the sound just didn't fit what everyone else was saying-- he gave the usual cluelessly-new-to-canalphones description of no bass and harsh treble that comes with trying to wear them like plain old ear buds).

I'm upgrading mine. But why would you try to save a few dollars anyway buying tips? A new pair would cost you $10. The air cushion one might cost you around $20.

Because I have several pairs around the house in need of tips.
