Thoughts?
I think everything is up in the air if there are actually four revisions of the same phone. Toss most of the impressions out the window and start over.

RE0s, the first version, were my first pair into Head fi world, and i went to the ZEROs and then the v3 0s again, all i would say is, placebo or not, the first batch was the most satisfactory in the sound department. the v3 0s have a wider soundstage, but the highs are one of the strongest point, IMO that the v1 0s had best. Head Direct, please donf eff up the v1 0s, please change the housing back to normal, change the cables to the best u can get, let us get those phones. Since the day i've lost my 0s to the cable defect, i've only been frustrated by how the ZEROs sound, and the 0s i brought again, the v3, didnt have all the highs and the way they got smoother with burn in.
i just wish i never lost the v1 0s.
@Anaxilus, ur right about the writing reviws and impressions thing again.
but most of us wont have both the v1 and the v4 at one time to compare.
I actually found v3 smoother in the highs than v1 and just as extended and detailed. But the latest v4 lacks in the treble department compared to the previous versions to my ears - the highs are noticeably grainier and less refined.
That is some pretty intense sub-bass

Got these ("fat" jack, new housing) a while ago, my brother bought them as he destroyed my old beloved RE0. Sent mail to head-direct to know about the differences, officially there's no version 4, latest is version 3 as told me by HiFiMan support. Who knows.... it's a bit confusing
