NOVA'S..........Start with them stock, if they seem too hard narrow the inner foam maybe 1/4". If they still seem too hard take another 1/4" off the inner. Do not cut the outer soft foam. The inners will soften up a bit over time, but Nova is now selling 1/4" tuning rings of the inner foam so if they get too soft, you can add the tuner rings. Best foams out there.

Try a tall, narrow foam. Maybe HPI rock grabber or x-lock foam.
