Holds a special place in my collection as it has consistently been my daily driver for several years. Sad to think if anything happens to my pair I won't be able to get another one.

The 272 would have to be one of my favourite IEM's ever. To get the best out of them I prefer it amped. The detail these things have is nothing short of outstanding. Bass is quick well defined and refined. So if you like your bass in ya face....not for...

My full review on Passion for Sound is here: http://wp.me/p1J5zo-70 In summary: A bit light on the bass - tight and clean, but lacking some oomph Sound is so clean and detailed, but not fatiguing Staging is excellent - on par or better than much more...

I'm relatively new to the IEM scene (I bought RE0's for me and my wife two years ago and have been using them with great pleasure until they were stolen 1 year ago) I liked the sound signature of the RE0, but I have never taken them seriously as a...

Review is in the review thread here: http://www.head-fi.org/t/568515/hifiman-re272-review/135#post_7845383 Suffice it to say, these IEMs are perfect once equalized. No ifs or buts. Nothing I've ever tried matches these. Even without the sound is great,...

Disclaimer: I've got my RE272 as a review sample for free. There are more pros and cons in my full review, like Quote: - RE272 bass accuracy is excellent, but I like to have it perfect. - Soundstage size is good for IEM, but I like to have more. But...
