Are these wax proof? Would you recommend these tips over Comply Foam Tips?

These are not "Wax proof". Your ear produces wax as a way to clean out the ear, and it moves it out to get rid of the dirt. that is why regular inspection and cleaning if needed is just part of owning in-ear-monitors. These are not meant for long life (silicone lasts longer), that is why you buy a pack and use until they start to get nasty, or the foam fails to return to shape, then replace with the next set. The foam tends to fit better for longer wearing, and fit a range of ears better than say the silicone. As far as the comparison, I have not tried them (Comply), and the other brand seems to offer different foam densities, which could impact seal and comfort i guess. When you see "wax guard" or "wax proof", that means there is a small screen used, and to some this can modify the sound, again to what effect, I think everyone if different on their perceptions of sound, I have not needed them. I hope that helps.

I haven't had any experience where the wax was sticking onto the earphones.

I've never used Comply foam tips but I'm considering them. I'm also considering custom in-ear molds. I like Shure foam tips and have had no complaints. I average 2-3 packages per year.The Shure's have a smooth, soft and glossy finish that should resist earwax. Overtime, however, the finish wears and becomes more porous which may allow earwax to cling to the foam tips. This about these events time the tips lose their memory foam behavior so it's the ideal time to replace them.

The Comply are much better, but these are cheaper. Don't know what you mean by wax proof though.

I haven't broken a single tip since I purchased them 3 months ago and I use them almost everyday. I do sharpen them up every once in a while if I'm detailing.

No they are not coated in wax, but are reasonably thick so they hold up for a little while.

If you press too hard perhaps but moderate regular use doesn't wear down tips. They are much sturdier than the Papermate Flair Ultrafine pens.

I don't see why this would be an issue at all since these are made of plastic, not wax. They should hold up great!

It should be mentioned that you *can* buy 100 series comply foam tips for these. It requires a bit of forceful application because the 100 series wasn't designed to fit, but they will if you force them on.Not sure if it's really worth it to you, but I like comply foam tips too much to give them up.

They are much larger than the regular tips. If you use a coupler, you will need a large one. Hope this helps.

I'm not familiar with Comply tips, but the foam on these earbuds is soft and comfortable. Definitely not silicone.

Have never used paste wax with these pads and not sure they should be used that way.

You should be fine, they are wax coated, I use mine for homemade ice cream haven't had a problem with them.

They are smooth bore so it is easier to remove the tip than ones with a ridge. However ive never had any of the provided eartips unintentionally fall off or staying stuck in your ear, so shouldnt be a problem.

Yes. Go to www.complyfoam.com to see which model to order. The MEE Duo's are the best ear buds I've owned and the Comply tips make a very good product even better.
