Holy dang y'all, did you see what those Rah are selling for post-discount? Absolutely insane.

Haha exactly same shoes. I remember when i first bought ie80 and was stunned and even convinced my mate to buy a pair. I would not be surprised if eventually that will happen with r1 zenith or rah.

That be the Sennheiser CX400 in my case. In those days that was what I thought all I needed

Now with this Rah... DD, planar, ceramic...
Not sure of what other combos I would consider. Really excited about these.

I haven't been that wowed with the BAs, electrostats and their hybrid combos.

I always seem to go back to my dynamics, namely Finals e5000, TinHifi p1, Zenith and most recently the Shanling m100.

so 91% of orders from pre-order completed as of this morning.

Hopefully closer to 100% after today.

As @warriorpoet suggested in the R1 thread, Symbio W tips are a great option with IMR. They worked well with the R1, fit weird with the Z for me (stock silicones were really good), and they are amazing with the R2. The relatively shallow insertion, on account of their density, works particularly well to replicate the feeling of large open-back headphones.

For me, Symbio W was not any better than the foam tips that came with R2. Are these Comply tips?

I did not realize that bob is looking to jump into ciem market as well. Seems i might just know what my next cash splash will be after rah.
Where did he say that? I couldn't find anything on this, I would love a CIEM by Bob!

Just bought the rah. I wish I could trade in my zenith. I have way too many iems that I don’t listen to. I could have bought a nice house...
Same here, during my wait for RAH's I'm looking at the oBravo Cupid, Tin P1's to fulfil my need to buy another IEM (need or want?)

BUT I will be strong, I will

Oh my. CIEM it is! LOVE that Bob is offering this!

Wonder how he's thinking of incorporating the tuning filters?

Ordered my Rah today, and also I gave him my personal feedback after my experience with r1/r1z and r2. He told me that few changes will be made to the Rah case and filter holder, so I'm really happy with that.

Any comparison between R2 Aten and the Zenith?
