I have the Etymotic MK5s. They're pretty much single-handedly responsible for allowing me to get any work done in my current open office environment.
After a couple of near misses with the flanges getting disconnected while in my ear, I've vowed to take replacing them every so often more seriously.
I currently alternate between using the standard frost-tinted triple flange tips, which I have on my pair at home, and the larger clear triple flange tips which I have on the pair that I use in the office. They both feel about equally comfortable.
Is it just a matter of personal preference? Are the larger/clear ones for people with larger ears? Any other consideration I should take into account besides comfort while using them?
