Do you find the HD598 and RE-400 very similar? I'm basically trying to find an HD598 shoved into an IEM, and I'm trying to decide between this and the Havi B3.

From my memory, the RE-400 had a more natural presentation- no elevated mids or treble like the HD 598 but the two have about the same level of bass impact. Because of the large soundstage of the HD 598's, the intimate mids aren't a problem and I find them extremely pleasing.
Basically, with the RE-400, you'll find mids that are very slightly forward, well-extended treble that is smoother than the HD 598 and light bass. I wouldn't say that they are very similar but keep in mind this is all from memory as I sold them so I could afford the Modi. I have no experience with the Havi B3 so I can't help you there.
Hope that helped!
