    HiFiMAN RE-00 Earphone Review by mark2410

    A pair of Comply Tsx-400s did the trick for me. Took the treble peaks away without any loss of extension and brought out the mids, making them sound much closer to the RE-ZERO.   Requested the drop for a second pair because #Hifimanbuildquality

    HiFiMAN RE-00 Earphone Review by mark2410

    I got myself a pair as a bit of a HifiMan IEM aficionado and I'll have more to say about these later, but here are my (unsolicited) initial impressions:   - HOLY S**T these cost HOW MUCH??? $35? GTFO!!! - Boosted upper treble (~8-12khz), making them sound airier than RE-400 - Recessed lower...

    Multi-IEM Review - 352 IEMs compared (Pump Audio Earphones added 04/03/16 p. 1106)

      I was afraid you'd say that. Caved and ordered another (my third) pair of RE-400s for now while I look for a good pair of Rockets. My first pair lasted nearly three years, so I definitely lucked out and for $79 I figured they might be worth another shot.   Damn you Hifiman, why do your...

    Hi @ljokerl !   First, I'm amazed that this is still alive. You're superhuman! A huge thank you for continuing to help the community!    I have long been a fan of Hifiman IEMs, and took your advice a couple times in the past when looking for new IEMs. Well, after years of using them I'm...

    ^^ If you haven't tried them yet, I'd recommend Sony Hybrids

    HIFIMAN RE300a/ RE300i InLine and RE300h (hifi) Earphone launched! *Impressions added*

      Sure thing! I don't really believe in "burn-in", however. My impressions of IEMs don't tend to change much after certain hours or days of listening. The ears might adapt a little, sure, but the sound signature largely remains the same.   For what it's worth I do let new IEMs play a long...

    Haha well played! There's a reason I haven't yet had any of my Hifiman IEMs fall apart, though. They've never seen the inside of a gym and their lives are better off for it ;)

    Hifiman IEM's: RE-400 and RE-600

    I just want to say the RE-400 is my favorite Hifiman IEM and the most satisfactory purchase (with RE-272 and RE-ZERO a close second and third). The balanced sound with just a hint of warmth is just perfect for extended listening!

    HIFIMAN RE300a/ RE300i InLine and RE300h (hifi) Earphone launched! *Impressions added*

    So, this first impression is a bit difficult for me to write. As a big Hifiman IEM aficionado and current owner of a pair each of the RE-ZERO, RE-262 and the RE-400, my initial reaction to the RE300h is that of huge disappointment. I guess I can see why Hifiman might tune these the way they did...

    Hifiman IEM's: RE-400 and RE-600

    5 months later and these little guys continue to impress. Just got done listening to Zeppelin's Celebration Day Live. Jason Bonham's drums and the soundstage...oh my!

    Hifiman IEM's: RE-400 and RE-600

    Glad to see the 400s gaining some popularity. Excellent value at $99, and a very nice successor in the RE-ZERO price point in my opinion

    Hifiman IEM's: RE-400 and RE-600

    Thanks for the pic and heads up on these models a few months ago in my thread, ClieOS. What tips are you using? The ones they ship with (shown in your pic) were very comfortable and isolation was surprisingly fantastic, almost like an etymotic. Ps. Sorry for the double post, not sure how to...

    Multi-IEM Review - 352 IEMs compared (Pump Audio Earphones added 04/03/16 p. 1106)

    I strongly recommend trying out the new Hifiman RE400. I own both revisions of the ZEROs and 262 and now have the 400. It has a flat neutral sig like the ZERO, but has better bass impact and isolation with the smaller housing design. It has an inoffensive treble, although probably a tad less...
