Ultimate Ears UE 900 Discussion and Impressions Thread
Does anyone know where to buy the official UE900s foam tips, the colored band ones that come stock on pegs etc? I've looked in Logitech's spare parts store but can't find them =S- swiftkidd

Ultimate Ears UE 900 Discussion and Impressions Thread
Yeah.. I received my UE900 back in July 2013 which were nickel plated causing me and other users to experience audio clipping as a result. I didn't realize they had updated UE900 production because UE900 were only on the market for 12 months prior to UE900s so what has really changed apart...- swiftkidd

It certainly looks that way though I could be wrong.. I'm not sure there is anything special with the unibody it's just the shell is all the same color? mine is non unibody but has the updated gold plates which is most important I think- swiftkidd

Hopefully but honestly my earphones never see any high risk activity as they live permanently on my desktop I don't wear them to bed or do cardiovascular exercise or anything with them except wear them at my desktop which is isolated in my room.. so not sure why you wrote that or quoted high...- swiftkidd

Ultimate Ears UE 900 Discussion and Impressions Thread
I just opened my UE900s which I received from Logitech Europe 4 weeks ago they're the non unibody version but they do have the gold plated connectors unlike my failed set of UE900 I'm not blown away by the sound but maybe it'll take some adjusting because I've spent the past 3 months listening...- swiftkidd

Ultimate Ears UE 900 Discussion and Impressions Thread
It's the old stock as they're advertised as UE 900 and not UE900s, I had planned to sell my UE 900s warranty replacement which only had a 30 day warranty so I could purchase the UE 900 and benefit from 2 year manufacturer warranty but no one was interested.. I was selling them at £175...- swiftkidd

Ultimate Ears UE 900 Discussion and Impressions Thread
I had planned to sell my warranty replacement but will most likely keep them now as this reenforces what a sham company they've become.. I don't think it matters what they discontinue the build quality is absolute crap across their entire product range they will not last the duration of the...- swiftkidd

Ultimate Ears UE 900 Discussion and Impressions Thread
Hey, If anyone wants to buy the 900s off me factory sealed without 2 year manufacturers warranty (only 30 day maximum) I'm lowering the price to £175 delivered (UK Only).. Given my experience with multiple failed sets of Ultimate Ear earphones I plan to sell 900s and pay the additional £35 and...- swiftkidd

Ultimate Ears UE 900 Discussion and Impressions Thread
Does anyone know the cause of channel imbalance with overall loss of premium sound? Does it mean a driver is blown/broken because all my UE earphones have suffered that same fate.. my UE900 went after 8 months of daily use in right channel imbalance with overall dull, muffled, bassless sound in...- swiftkidd

Makes me wonder how much they initially invest in bringing these products to market to continually discard and replace with completely new designs with apparent cutting edge new features etc.. all that expense in product development, market research, advertising / marketing, design patents...- swiftkidd

Ultimate Ears UE 900 Discussion and Impressions Thread
I have no idea but in part I'm not an audiophile and only had Ultimate Ears 350 as part of a warranty deal for a failed set of Logitech Speakers (Z 10s) which I've also managed to purchase back recently brand new from a seller on eBay as they're discontinued but Logitech support has up until...- swiftkidd

Ultimate Ears UE 900 Discussion and Impressions Thread
I'm only left to speculate but is highly questionable as to why Logitech has.. Logitech acquired Ultimate Ears back in 2008 I'm assuming with the intention of extending product range to deliver consumer IEM as Ultimate Ears was founded in 1995 specializing in professional (custom) IEM.. the...- swiftkidd

Ultimate Ears UE 900 Discussion and Impressions Thread
Ask them why they've chosen to discontinue the entire consumer IEM product range leaving only UE900s (a redesign to address the design flaws in UE900) released just 12 months after UE 900.. I think that is an important and valid question to ask on behalf of UE consumers given no public...- swiftkidd

I had cut ins/cut outs that's what lead me to this forum | complaint #2 but accepted it as being normal as it was reportedly common across many sets.. fast forward several months later the volume in my UE 900 no longer works properly in the right channel but both channels now sound like entry...- swiftkidd

Ultimate Ears UE 900 Discussion and Impressions Thread
Is no one else concerned that they've discontinued every consumer IEM and reduced the warranty on 900s from 2 years to just 1 year all without publicly notifying the consumers? Why even bother re-releasing the UE 900 repackaged & re branded if they can only guarantee the product will last a...- swiftkidd
