Waterbox 4" filter sock replacement options

[harsha22]

I currently have a Waterbox marine X 60.2 that comes with a 4" filter sock and a sock silencer. Buying these socks from waterbox are getting to be a pain instead I switched to Redsea socks which are good but the issue is the silencer doesn't fit in the inner lip of the sock.
Is there anyone out there who is using another brand of filter sock in their waterbox aquarium in palce of their 4" felt but still use the silencer provided by waterbox?

Persons I know also use red sea
You may have to reduce size of silencer

I just found that if you invert the waterbox filter sock silencer and use it on top of the red sea filter sock it is way more silent. It still doesnt seamlessly fit inside the inner lip of the redsea but I dont hear the water sound anymore by using the lid upside down.
