i had the re0 for about 5 months (got them on ebay from head-director) and they've always been flawless but 5 mins ago the right ear drive just stopped outputing sound :|

and i'm clueless to what should i do

i only used them with the notebook always on reasonable volume..

before they definitely stopped working i was trying to fit them better in my ear but as i pushed them deeper in the ear canal they would stop working and if i pulled them out just a little they would work again (but i tought it was my ear from too much wax)...

i'm trying to do that again now but this time they don't output nothing, it's like it's dead

the left ear drive works just fine though :|

a few months ago i modded them by removing the little pieces of foam inside but they still worked like a charm till now

i have always done maintenence on them but my ears sometimes get wet if i listen to music for a prolonged period of time but i tought that is normal??

has somebody experienced this with their re0 ?? what can i do now? i dont even know how long they are in warranty

Call Head-direct. They come with 12-month warranty.

could someone give me a clue as to what might have happened?

i really don't know what are the frequent causes of death among earphones

can i possibly repair them? i know that sounds crazy

This.

Though from modding them you may have voided your warranty. When I saw them drop to $79 I almost ordered another pair (instead got the RE252's on the Black Friday sale) you should do so. Order a second and see if your first pair can get repaired. These IEM's are dynamite!

No not it at all, but most manufacturers will void your warranty if you tamper with the device. Ask Head Direct.
