Etymotic 3-Flange Silicone Eartips, Gray - 10 Pack - Large Fit

I noticed in the comments that these eartips aren't the same as those "original" on ER4 but I purchased them anyway because it's the only choice for large eartips. Here's what I found: As pointed out by other comments, the grey opaque one on the left is from this listing; the translucent one on the right it the "default" large tip I got out from my ER4SR accessories pack (still new unused). 1. Colour. Obviously different. I'd certainly buy the translucent one should that be an option. So Etymotic please put those tips that come default with your earphones on market as well!! 2. Size. Check the picture carefully. Personally I'd say that they are of the same size and that's reasonable. Because why would they spend money for just a slightly different mould only to displease the customers? 3. Fitting. I found these grey opaque tips fit slightly better in my ears than those translucent "default" ones. BUT this is possibly due to the original ones losing elasticity over time. AND this is probably some think the original ones are bigger: silica gel swell and losing elasticity after heavy use, making them a bit difficult fitting into the ears thus feel bigger. 4. Durability. I bought this only one and a half months after I received my ER4SR... The user manual states that eartips be replaced 2-3 months. IMHO, forget about the difference in colour, these are official Etymotic accessories and of same good quality.

SHORT REVIEW: same size, slightly "tougher" rubber with different color (may be a result of aging rubber with the old ones) resulting in better tips. Other reviews state that there is a size disparity between these replacements and the original 3-flange eartips, but I'm not convinced. The pair that originally came with my hf5 headphones have lasted about a year and a half of abuse and are starting to fall apart with a crease--I stored them with the third flange flipped inside-out. I did this, because the rubber of the original tips would get somewhat "bent" or distorted if the headphones were compressed in the pouch in my backpack for long periods of time, resulting in a bad seal and worse noise isolation when I eventually used them. As a result, the third flange finally creased to the point of holes forming. The new tips seem to be made out of a slightly less flexible rubber, which I first thought might make for a less comfortable seal or worse seal. These thoughts were quickly corrected in wearing the tips for about a week now, they are making a more consistent seal and are quite comfortable in my ears, better so than the 3-flange pair I replaced. Because these seem more durable, I have not and don't expect to have the same issue with the tips getting "bent" in my backpack, so I see no need to store them with the 3rd flange inside out. Would buy again, would recommend to anyone else using hf5/similar Etymotic headphones with worn 3-flange tips that aren't making as good a seal as they used to.

I have ER-6i earphones and these worked great. In fact, they seem to stay on better than the original ones. I agree with another reviewer that they are a little smaller than the original eartips but the difference is almost indistinguishable. If you have Etymotic earphones you should have spare tips as they can come off frequently. I keep an extra pair on the earphone carrying case. These also worked on a new pair of Etymotic earphones that my wife has.

These tips have the connecting nipple recessed that means the largest flange will cover over a portion of the driver, OK for the longist er4 and such since they already stick out but for the small-body er6, these tips will force you to insert the phones even further in to get a good seal than you may not feel comfortable with. The CONTOUR large tips fit better for my er6.

About a year ago, I got a pair of zippy earbuds to replace middle of the line ones that had been stolen: "Klipsch IMAGE S4 In-Ear Enhanced Bass Noise-Isolating Headphones (Black)." They are great... Except that I apparently have differently sized ear canals. The right earbud never quite fit and created an air seal that would last. So unless I remained absolutely, positively still, the right earbud worked loose and I didn't get the sound isolation that's really the whole point of earbuds. (Klipsch comes with 3 different sizes of tips; none fit quite right.) These replacement tips arrived today and they work great. The earbuds now stay in my ears and I can hear the material on my iPod quite well. They're comfortable, neither too tight nor too loose. I had some worries about the fit between the earbud itself and the plug-in point on the replacement tip--but they slipped right on because the material in the tips is flexible enough to accommodate the little stem. Yay!

Etymotic is not with their sizing nor product associations. I own a pair of MC5 earphones and the original eartips were amazing. It was obviously a time to replace my original eartips so I have been looking for replacements, and purchased the above. 1. The eartips doesn't even fit your earplug properly. The hole is much smaller than the one that the default one and you have to be forceful to even put the eartips into the earplug. 2. The eartips themselves are much much much smaller than the default one. It does not create a seal, and it does not feel comfortable. It's really unfortunate - even on their official site [...] the 38-18 seems to be for the largest sized 3-flange eartip. I literally used this product for less than a minute, and threw away the entire package. Now my old dirty eartip is back in with no possible alternative. What a waste of money.

First, these work identically for me to the large tips that came with my ER4XRs. They appear to be slightly smaller, but this difference, if it exists, is irrelevant in my ears. These insert and stay in the same as the others. I use them with my Etymotics as well as a pair of Massdrop NuForce EDC3s and my old Shure E3cs One reviewer mentioned they needed tips like these with a little longer stem. Try the Shure 3-flange tips. EATFL1 or equivalent. You can cut the long stems to the length you need, and they are extremely similar otherwise.

Perfect! Hesitated to purchase, based on all the overwrought 1-star reviews trashing them for being smaller than the originals. However, I found that these are the same size and material as the large tips that came with my Etymotic HF5s. IMHO, they are more comfortable than the smaller clear tips, and I am perfectly pleased with them. Fit is excellent. Thanks, Etymotic, for making these available at a reasonable price.

Seem to be about the same as the large set you get with the ety phones.

Las únicas almohadillas tri-flange para etymotic que no me dañan la piel del canal auditivo. Sellado perfecto.

Son muy cómodas, desaparecen en tus oídos al usarlas a diferencia de las transparentes o las demás que vienen incluidas con los ER2SE. Además proveen mucho aislamiento del ruido. El único inconveniente es que pierden el sello después de varios días de usarlas por horas, ya que toman la forma del canal auditivo y que muy seguido están muy caras comparado al fabricante si el fabricante Etymotic las tiene disponibles.

シュアーの純正品よりお買い得なため、こちらを購入。 ちょっときついですけど、ゴムだから広げてはめる形で特に不都合もなく装着。

Perfect fit for er2xr...
