    Reply to review by 'wembely' on item 'HiFiMAN RE-00'

    I have to agree with you.  They are very similar to the original re-0 (which I still have in mint condition).  The bass on the re-00 is slightly more than the original.  That is slightly with a "small s" - in other words you would have to have them side by side to even notice it.  As good as any...

    Thanks for the review.  I feel the same way - they just flat out miss the mark. I had such high expectations and in the end just feel let down by what could have been... Maybe they will get it right on the next try

    Phonak Audeo - Grey or Black Filters?

    I know this is a very delayed reply. However I have 4 black I'd be willing to trade for 4 gray. Please PM me if you're still interested.

    Why aren't all headphones equalized to be flat and thus sonically perfect?

    You are welcome.  Again your are generally correct in your assertions implied by your question.  if you look at self powered studio monitors, many of the top models (doesn't mean expensive but as this is trickling down rapidly) use DSP processing to correct for phase, frequency and impulse...

    Why aren't all headphones equalized to be flat and thus sonically perfect?

    That's pretty much what I described above. Except they are not "your" ears but a standard ear. To me they get close enough to mine. Good luck

    Why aren't all headphones equalized to be flat and thus sonically perfect?

    I don't think you are that far off on your question at all.  In fact there are some very good Apps (for Apple devices anyways) that do EXACTLY what you are talking about.  I used them all the time and in fact typically will not buy or listen to a Headphone or IEM that does not have a digital...

      I had the blue ant embrace.  They are the only headphones I ever returned due to sound so bad, EQ couldn't fix it.  See Tyll's review measurements here: http://www.innerfidelity.com/images/BlueAntEmbrace.pdf   less than stellar reviews here. http://www.whathifi.com/review/blueant-embrace...

    Yes but I didn't know if they would be any good. By the time I got them the sale was over. Keeping my eye out for. A repeat sale before Xmas.

    I don't see how anyone can think the high frequencies are attenuated (not trying to pick a fight).  I have two pair and both have beautiful sparkly highs.  any more I would  have to tone them down.  Comparing them to HE-500, Ultrasone Pro 650, Ety 4s,  I find the treble to match and even better...

    Unfortunately the BA100 (and the EB900 which you can also find at Ross) are not even in the same league as the BA200, IE800 and EB950.  I have them all and the BA100 has no treble whatsoever, never head a duller IEM.  Same goes for the EB900   The 200, 800 and 950 are all worth getting, the...

    I just got these as well and agree with your assessment.  I got them for 60 dollars during the Newegg sale and I feel like I got the biggest bargain ever!.  I was concerned that they would be lacking in bass, but they are just perfect.  Balanced, smooth  and extended across the entire...

    Check to make sure you have the headphone/ jack plugged all the way into the headphones.  I bought two pairs and both have tons of nice sparkly treble and seem very flat, no flabby bass as long as you leave ANC off.  if you have another 3.5mm audio cable, try that and seat it really well just to...

    I got these as well and had to send them back due to poor sound. I agree with your review, great looking and nice materials, but I have $20 headphones that sound better than these. not flat response nor even fun sounding, muddy, dull and bla... That's why they are dumping them for $49 vs their...

    Quote: I have these and they are excellent.  they also respond well to EQ.  At this price they are one of the best IEM values out there IMHO.  I bought an extra at this price since they are going out of production and they are one of my go to IEM for rock and Jazz. Accessories with these...

    Incase Sonic/ Bose AE2 Dilemma

    I have the incase sonics.  They ARE very comfy and stay put on my head,  They are heavier than the CAL! - but then the CAL! are super light. The sonics trounce the CAL! in build quality, but both sound excellent.   They isolate fairly well and about average for a good closed can.  They...
