Honestly often when I'm listening to my RE0 I can't believe that these ONLY cost $100. At $79, lets just say its the head-fi deal of the year.

Anyone know when the deal ends?

I say "bring it!" Especially if you value your bottom 3 octaves as much as the top 1.

I hope it'll last a few more days..!

 

[donnytuco]

Just ordered!

Anyone know how long it takes for them to send it off?

im sure the summer deal of $99 for re0 lasted until now which the new deal kicked in. i doubt they ever put the old price back.

 

[Reima]

Speaking as a newbie, how do these sound compared to a Klipsch S4, how to they feel, and which do you think would last longer?

A year ago I bought a Sennheiser CX300 for walking around and listening on-the-go (mostly to podcasts), and they were okay, but one of the cables went dead.

For a replacement I'm looking for the best deal under $100 -- is this the one?

This is why the "No Price Match" policy makes no sense...

This is outreagous behavior. A vendor offers a trial period, (he doesnt have to), its an act of faith with a customer and you return the favour by trying to get one over on him. Normally if an item goes on sale if you return it you only get the current price back (lower if its on sale). Its hard luck the price went down, respect the vendor. If people do this he will stop offering returns unless under warranty, we all suffer and the price doesnt stay on sale for long.

You have your headphones -enjoy them and stop penny pinching

I agree, fussing and pulling this little stunt over $20 on an already excellently priced set of earphones seems a bit ridiculous to me.

How's the fit for small ear canals?

Just pulled the pin myself on a pair of these. Could have got them locally (australia) for a reasonable price, but they were not in stock. Funnily enough, with shipping and exchange rates, they still cost me $100!

 

[imackler]

These are sickly tempting...

I wonder how long shipping will take on these, since Head-Direct is probably getting slammed with orders.

I got an email yesterday which contained a USPS tracking number, but it has yet to show up on the USPS website.

Well, it took approx 2 weeks from china to central canada. So, being it was shipped within the US, a lot quicker lol.
