No, and I wouldn't try it with my AirPods Pro. I've tried Sugru molds before, and they sort of work but they're quite firm once it cures - I don't think they'd be very comfortable.

From the pictures the membrane IS there.
yeah i too thought i could see a membrane. well, i ordered some. i’ll report in when they arrive. i believe the set of six will be one of each size. but possibly they are one size fit all since the two piece doesn’t allow for size selection.

Was about to order some, but since you already went ahead, i'll just wait for some feedback. Hope they're decent.

I bought a set of Symbio W eartips ...
Thanks for the tip, did mine today with Symbio W (size L), nice sealing, fit perfectly into original case!

Great, I'm glad it was helpful!

I got mine from Amazon here in Japan - where did you order from? I couldn't find them on Amazon.com, which is why I just posted the Amazon Japan link ...

At the end of my second week with my 5th set of Pros and since customising using the Symbio W eartips, I have had no seal issues, no NC problems and I get a seal with the medium Apple tips. Before installing the Symbio W eartips, i had to use the large Apple tips. All good so far.

some entrepreneurial individual should focus on selling foam circles that easily go under the existing buds, a la the hacks described in this thread.

Spoke too soon. I wore my AirPods today and got a high pitched sound in the right AirPod which is unbearably loud abd the bass has completely gone. It doesn’t goes away when I start the music up So frustrated with all this. This is my 5th set. Just called Apple and they are issuing a refund and suggesting a fresh order. After 20 years of Apple, I think this is the worst Apple product ever

I have both large. I put them in the case, make sure they bottom out in the slots, then I use my finger to open the gap between the tips (this is where they contact the lid). Then it is easier to close and stays closed all the way.

I got mine cheaper, but based off of my second day of use, yes, I would pay $22.

Try $32 US! Absolute robbery. I’d pay $15 max for these. Waiting for someone else to come up with a more realistic and affordable price.
