All new stock will be glued, official, from Phillips UK. I spoke to them at length on the phone.
Non glued = older stock.
Kind of sad to hear.
I have no complaints over the audio. These sets just sound marvellous but the build quality is really worrying me.
I bought my set in August from Finland. Pads were glued, though that did not bother me much. I have to RMA my set due to other quality issues. Biggest issue is that the right earphone color layer started peeling off. You can literally scratch it off with your fingernail. The left earpiece is totally fine. Another issue is the constant purple'ish oily tint leakage from the velour earpads leaving stains on paper and even my wooden workdesk. Washing them under warm water did not help.
Now I am awaing the response from Philips.
