I use some BRUTE ones.. got them locally.. they are ok.. they do the job.. nothing fancy.
http://www.brute.com/2003/category.asp?item=2

they are Quad 2's but black..They work. I guess i recommend them.. havent really tried any others so now way to tell if they are bad or good.

If you have seen my posts of what my ears look like... you may want to get some.. I wear them when i feel my ears starting to hurt. Once i wear the headgear for about a week my ears are usually fine for awhile. You ll know when you need to wear the headgear.. your ears will be very sore and you ll notice a little swelling.

Just for fun ill post my pics of my ears at the worst and now.
