Uh, yeah, the RE0s are better than the RE1s, but cheaper than those you've linked to. You can buy them directly from Head-Direct.com.

Have a read of this thread http://www.head-fi.org/forums/f103/r...st-iem-383355/

What bothers me is that sure most of the Dre products look AWESOME. TBH the Beats look great, they are lightweight and pretty comfy, the in ears are nice as well. They are just 90%. If they cost 300$, you can easily find another brand BETTER...MUCH BETTER for 100$.

the beats cost 300 or so, and the denon d1k cost abuot 100 and are 3x the quality and sound.

So again what bothers me is that the dre products look great, but you just paid 300$ for 50$ set that looks nice...so if you are into that sorta thing, more power to ya. I'll stick with my D1ks

Looks like your telling me that when you purchase a DRE your more or less just paying for the name than SQ or sound signature. Suppose your saying there are cheaper headphones out there than the dre at a fraction of the cost and yet with better SQ.

Em, yes, do you have a problem with that? I've already pointed out to you that the RE0s are way better, for the same price, which you've summarily ignored.

 

[SactoMan101]

Not worth the money. Get the Klipsch Image S4 for US$80 or the Image S4i for US$100 instead.

There may or may not be some miniscule differences in the design of the retail packaging, earphones, and variation/quality in accessories included.

The phrasing of this sentence carries a rather incredulous tone of voice -

Does it?

Thats correct, I am asking you that are there better headphones or IEM's out there for the same cost as the Dre's at a less cost and 2nd are they better value for money.

Anything wrong with that?

Yes ... Head-Direct RE0, Klipsch Image S4, Hippo VB.

Quote:

at a less cost

Confused by this bit, but Cyclone PR1 Pro, if you can find 'em.

If they're the same price/cheaper but better SQ, then probably

Well, I already gave you a suggestion and you seemed more preoccupied by the pricing of the RE1s on some Australian website.

I am still holding back on choosing a good pair of IEMs now but seriously now considering the Klipsch Image S4 as I have read alot of good reviews about them and their prob one of the best value for money IEMs out there by a mile.

I just really hope their comfortable and sound good if not very good and not tinny or lack bass and treble.

 

[Albinoni]

I see Audio Junkie here in Australia are selling the S4 with free postage for $138
Is that a good deal ?

 

[bcpk]

Well, it's about double what you'd pay in the USA, but this is Australia we're talking about...
