what kind of music will you be listening to with the RE2? I believe that will be the deciding issue. if your a huge R&B or hip hop fan. forget it. at least without a Fiio, which brings the bass to an ok level. seriously, no matter how good a seal you get, these are bass light. If you love lots of acoustic stuff, then you may be in good shape, but the thin low end will still be noticed.
I hate to seem like I hate these phones. I do not. when I paired them with the FiioE3, the bass boost helped a lot. It also did even out the soundstage and tame that "high mid" that I referred to. But I still end up wanting more with typical bass heavy songs. The high end is just so good on these, I wish it could push out a bit more warm low end. but then again, they are under 100 bucks.
Maybe a good comparison would be "grado-like", except without the bass extention.
