it has been said by fang to be around $400 i think.

 
Hmmm... now that they discontinued almost every one of their old models, I wonder what are they planning to do in order to fill the gap between the $100 RE-400 and the $400 RE-600.

I had to get myself an re-zero AND and re0.. just love the sound so much. And for CHEAP.

Anxiously waiting for more reviews on the re400.. should I continue being a Hifiman fanboy?

I think so. I have not hear the 0 or zero but really enjoyed the 262 and I have to say I am addicted to the 400. I subjectively prefer it as we speak to the audio technica CKW1000ANV and I find myself using it all the time.

Well obviously there is the space inbetween 400 and 600 for 500 but I not sure there will be for a while. We have had the knowledge of the 400 and 600 for a while now.

Just so you guys know, I haven't heard it talked about at all.  There is a third model as well that hasn't really been spoken of.  I don't know if it's still planned or not, but I was told that there will also be a HiFiMan RE-300 as well as the 400 and 600s.  Please do note that this information is from November, so things may or may not have changed since then.

I have the RE-ZERO and RE-0.. really enjoy both.  Would like to see a comparison between the RE-400 and the RE-ZERO, as they are (were) priced the same.. are they equivalent, or is the 400 an improvement..

 

[Inks]

Hifiman should've kept the RE0 and RE272...oh well. Hope these fill in the gap, cause those two will be hard to replace. 

 

[Gozzer]

Should have also kept the RE262`s. Very unique signature.

 

[Berkovajazz]

Just have bought RE0...
Thinking about RE400...
In love 272...
What?
I wish new HFM models have a good quality, lot of issues in topics with old RE-series.

 

[VolumusMaximus]

Have had the ZEROs for 2 years without any problems.. just bought the RE-0 a month ago since the price dropped.. seems to be well made - as good as the ZEROs.

You can make a RE272 sound like a RE262 with more foam in the nozzle or layers of filters, but can't make a RE262 into a 272. 272 is simply better. 272 and RE0 shoudl've been kept, but I'll have to give the new ones a shot to see if they're worthy replacements.

$400 sounds like a hefty price... especially since they have nothing to fill the price gap between $100-400. interested to get impressions once they hit peoples mailboxes

 

[proedros]

272 was an amazing iem , but it kinda went unoticed while hordes of people were raving about overhyped iems like TF-10 and GR-07

then again , this has been the story of human race - the majority of people always focusing on the wrong kind of things
 
maybe an improved version of re-272 will surface soon

  I definitely will be getting the $99 set, and would probably go for a sub $200 pair(if they come out with a set), however $400 will take some convincing.

 

[maguire]

why stop making 272 & 262? I dont get it.....400's not the same from what im  reading.....

 

[proedros]

there are still some 272 for sale at ebay/amazon for 250$ if anyone is interested

also, there were 4 new pairs at amazon going for 200$ this week , but they are all sold now , i picked the last one today as a back-up to my re-272 i already have

200$ for a new RE-272 ? too good a price to pass through

 

 

[maguire]

Oh Proedros me ol mate......why didnt you say so earlier? 200 for 272 is very nice
