    I think they might be referring to "EarQualizer" which is sold
    through Stuller. If you have the findings book or can login in to
    their website it is #22276. It looks basically like a regular nut
    with a small omega back soldered to it. I don't think it screws on
    though, I think it is friction. I tried one on my ear once and it
    seemed to keep the heavy stud from "drooping" in the front. I can't
    say it worked any better than a jumbo back or one of those little
    plastic washer discs though.
