Mark this as yet another RE0 owner reporting shoddy craftsmanship. Definitely something to the build quality. Hopefully Hifiman has improved the build quality in the latest batches.   I find the RE0 to be better than the...

Hi,   I enjoy the Triplefi10s  but can't fit them without a great deal of gymnastics.  But the sound is perfect.  Which portable headphone or full size best duplicates this sound? What I enjoy most are its...
