I got the knock offs, 9 pairs for $7 w free shipping on eBay. I like them.

To answer the guys asking about the bass boost, I personally find the E5 bass boost incredibly subtle to the point of almost being undetectable. I think it's a pretty disappointing feature but I keep it turned on because it does make some difference in making the overall sound seem "bigger," but...

Finally got my knock-off hybrid tips from eBay, they feel better than any of the RE0 stock tips and are easier to put on than the black stock tips too. I'm not sure how they affect the sound but everything sounds good to me. I also find they don't cause that suction effect that I get with the...

It's not you, this thread has been super slow for the last month or so that I've been monitoring it.

Nevermind, changed my mind again on the mysterious 3rd setting. Sticking to the left-most position.

I cut the back off the large biflange and it still makes my ears sore after a few minutes cause they're so big! Hopefully the hybrids from eBay work out for me.

kshelton, looking forward to your further impressions on the hybrids with RE0. I have a set of the eBay knock offs coming soon.

Thanks for the reply, ClieOS. I went ahead and ordered 3 pairs each just to be safe. I don't think I'd need more than 3 pair of whatever I end up using so it works out fine. I hope it's not too much of a pain to get them installed on the RE0, I've seen some say it's very tight and some say it's...

Just bought the knock off hybrids from eBay for my RE0s, hopefully they go on as easy as some people have experienced. I'll post my results when they get here.
