Seems to be Reason-only? It was an old Tweet, so dunno. They link to Reason store page for it from their website (it's not like the plugin itself matters, though. :p).

Wondering if the Flare Audio IEMs is a FOTM. 
 
Has anyone heard them yet?

Unless you're in the UK and can visit Flare HQ or have a review sample, I highly doubt it. I don't think they're FOTM, TBH. WCDChee in the Flare thread has the Dita Answer and the K10 and he feels like the R2Pro is easily on the level of any TOTL phone he's heard. He described it to me as being similar to the Dita but with less bass, and fuller, richer (but uncolored) mids, which, in all honesty, pretty much corrects every issue I had with the Dita (which was a phone that I thought was quite excellent for the money). So if the aforementioned is true, then for the KS price, it's pretty much a steal. For retail, it's still priced quite well relative to other products IMO
 
Doesn't Raptor live in the UK? We should send him to do some reconnaissance work lol

  When are you getting your set? 

Not sure, shipping has begun but there are many, many sets to send out. I think mine will arrive some time in mid July if everything is on track. 
 
If they are actively giving away samples.


I think you can just show up and ask to demo them. Some people in the Flare thread were able to do that I think.

R70X... the flatness is justice.

I went through Flare Audio's webpage and the sheer abundance of "codeword" marketing is horrible. Especially the page on R1...

"Featuring DSV (Dual Sided Vortex™) technology... compressed with Space™ technology to remove enclosure interference..."

Seriously? Nothing written on those "very unique techs" either.

It just don't give me confidence. But again, I have not heard any of their products.

I think the marketing for nearly every flagship headphone out there is steeped in an abundance of useless buzzwords, so it's best to let the product speak for itself. The R1 is acknowledged to be a flawed headphone from the reviews I've read of it, but the R2A/R2Pro is supposed to be excellent. 
 
This guy here reviewed both:

and the print review for both phones is in the video description. He admitted that the R1 was totally bungled here:
