Conclusion

The RE0 are very nice dynamic driver in-ear phones. Actually they’re among the most balanced and precise I’ve heard so far (no, unfortunately I haven’t heard the Sennheiser IE8 yet). They might not have the bass impact of the Atrios or the soundstage of the V-Moda Vibes, but the RE0 dynamic driver’s clarity comes close to some high priced armature IEMs, and their treble extension surpasses many other in-ear phones. Slight sibilance is the price to pay for that with some recordings, but with well mastered material they’re well behaved.

While the build quality is nothing special, the sound is worth the price. No matter if you throw Rock, Jazz, Classical, or anything in between at them, they perform well.
Pros

* Balanced sound, slightly forward treble
* Very good precision and clarity for a dynamic driver
* Perfect impedance for problematic audio players

Cons

* Slight sibilance with some audio material
* Soundstage could be better
* Cheap paper/felt filters, stiff cable
