Hi @Ragman! I got the titanium tips a week ago today. There is good and bad with them, mostly good.
The soft slimtips seemed to aim the business end at my ear canal wall fairly often, making me feel occluded both in open and closed modes. The titanium rarely does that.
The seal around the AV seems much tighter than the soft tips, so air going in or out when in closed mode sounds like farting when the wire or the tip is touched quite often. Most disturbing aspect of the new tips.
They don’t work their way out quite as much as the soft tips did.
The sound quality is even better than the slim tips, which was better enough than the domes over regular receivers I knew within about 2 minutes of putting them on in the audiologist’s office that it was good. Music sounds better than ever. Really, I haven’t heard music this well is SO long.
