At this point I don't think I'll be keeping the RE400. I just don't connect with it.

Great 360 degree review. Thank you.

Ordered my pair on Thursday and I can't wait to hear how they compare to my Grado GR 10s.

No problem, glad the review was useful and enjoyable. Hope you like the RE-400 as much as I did. Let us know how it is. I can't compare to the GR10 though never heard them ;p

How do these compare to the RE262?

 

[zachgraz]

I just got an email from Head-direct customer service saying they also don't know the release date of the RE600.
 
Too bad, I am really looking forward to these...

Chill out man! Have you heard the new re 600? I thought that the re 272 were the re 252 update.

Does anyone know if Hifiman has any (web) retailers in europe ? Dealing with customs is always a pain.

It's not wise to speculate. I went through a chinese thread with google translate, very interesting and difficult read; but the RE600's seem to be a pretty big deal.
 
For those curious ones

EDIT: In the review, the RE600's are pre-production units.

This is an "interesting" read but one must read between the lines of Google's translation

As I understand it the reviewer likes the RE600 more than the AKG 3003 and describes them as well balanced, smooth sounding with a warm tone and especially great for vocal. Other words used are clean, transparent and high resolution. Sounds very pomising...
He also compares them to "EM customs", anybody knows which ones he means ?

Perhaps Earsonic EM customs.
