    Flare Audio R2PRO Kickstarter campaign

    My cables broke again :( There is no response from Flare, I guess they ended up support. I have 2 paris both with now broken cables. Does anyone know someone who can take my broken cables, take drivers from them and make me new, high quality cable? Ideally in UK or at least european union...

    These guys don't like audio on pixel too much. http://pocketnow.com/2016/10/31/pixel-xl-real-audio-review

      Hi, I recently got my snugs but am not sure if they are made right or not (my first custom tips). Could you help me assess it? I think they go quite deep and can get good seal, especially with a help of provided otoferm creme. Is there any test I could perform? Cheers

    Both mine and my friends cable broke near the jack. No mods, over the ear, normal usage (I keep them in my jacket pocket sometimes, use them outside etc)

    My cable died too, I hoped it would last until they introduce "premium" cable.   I really think with solid titanium piece and replaceable driver they are very solid, but cable is very poor quality, I hope they will introduce much better one.   Oh, my friends R2A's cable died too - same thing...

      Very cool, I am now very interested in snugs, just slightly worried about treble peaks.   One of the things i really like about R2PROs is how they disappear in my ears. Do they stick out with snugs? It also looks like there is some strain on a cable, is it still possible to wear them over...

    Nice, they have version with/without mic/splitter, but I am waiting for braided cable.   They are also selling silicone tips! http://www.amazon.co.uk/Flare-Audio-R2-ES-Replaceable-Silicone/dp/B0133BT0TO/ref=lp_7156610031_1_7?srs=7156610031&ie=UTF8&qid=1439239036&sr=8-7

    Thanks again! I searched amazon for "sony hybrid tips" and it didn't showed up in search results.    So glad you joined this discussion :) Now I have nice marking and will have hybrids in the next few days, not mentioning your great impressions :)

      Thanks a lot, very clever :) Found some old heir audio tips and already applied it.

    I enjoy the sound with comply tips but already used one pair.   Can anyone tell me if these are genuine sony hybrids? (link), this is the only seller I found that ships to UK. Are sony sizes fairly standard? I pretty much always use medium size, is it safe to get medium hybrids?   I know...

    I really like how you marked earpiece with this red thingy. IMO looks much better than a sticker :)   Would you mind telling what is it and where can I get one?

    Ok finally got around and plugged in R2S after listening to Pros for few days.   I don't have time to do critical listening and A/B them (I listen at work through HRT microstreamer).   Honestly it's hard for me to choose between them, I actually feel the R2S have slightly bigger soundstage. ...

      It's my first day with R2PROs today but I'm loving them so far. I had few 200-300GBP iems before (earsonics SM2, ie80, heir audio 3.ai) and I think R2PROs are better than all of them. I'm listening through HRT microstreamer. The only let down is the cable but I will upgrade it in the future...
