Using hybrid too but no problem.

Tried comply before it fits but sounds not as good as the hybrid.

Have you tried bigger size tips?

Good idea. Because the fitting got loose after 15 mins. Probably need a bigger one instead of a smaller one.laugh.gif

The picture is borrowed from headfi.

But I have done it as well. It really remove the veil from the vocals, reduce the overpowering bass. You need to try it to experience the difference. Before mod, I think it sounds really bad.

Just bought one for my cellphone use. But the sound is unbelievable great, better than my JBL reference one. Sorry forgot the model.
