I don't believe they will fit. They look to be for a very narrow nozzle iem. The IE 900 does fit standard bore width tips, however. For standard tips, see utdeep's post above about putting a ring around the nozzle if the nozzle is too shallow for a deep fit. It works wonderfully.
My W2 is set low gain on iPad but high gain on iPhone to achieve similar SQ. Just need to adjust the volume. In my opinion, low gain sounds better and more balanced overall because frequency response is different with high gain and might push the IE900 a little too bright. That is how I feel about the W2. Other settings on my W2 are all on normal, fast and tune02. Using 4.4mm balanced as well. 3.5mm cable does not sound as nice as balanced. However, if you feel the IE900 is too bright with W2 on balanced, you can go SE. It will help.
Good to hear there is great sinergy W2 and IE900. Was wondering if people use 4.4 or 3.5
Yup the IE900 sounds good with W2. 4.4 or 3.5 depends on personal preference. Maybe 3.5 for more relaxed listening.

Now...there's a reason I put this second on the list. I was very curious how the IE 900 would sound on a tube amp and, to be honest, I was very paranoid that something bad would happen. Fortunately, I had confirmed it to be safe beforehand.
The IE 900 isn't without its faults, of course. The treble can get a little hot at times, the upper mids are scooped out a bit, and the staging is a bit off. Pairing it with the Soloist, the treble is mostly tamed while the other two issues are still present but less bothersome.
Pairing it with the Allnic for the first time, I was floored! Honestly, I didn't expect much but there were noticeable improvements all across the board. It didn't tame some of the treble hotness but it extends so nicely and sounds so clean that I'm okay with it. The upper mids have been nicely filled up with very good detail and very good timbre. The staging is mostly fixed and the bass is so fun while being very technical, textured, and nuanced. The IE 900 is honestly a good value (with the right pairing), but unfortunate that most reviews undersell it imo. I guess it was pure luck that I stumbled across this pairing; I was genuinely surprised.
With all that said, I would definitely not recommend getting an Allnic just for the IE 900. But since I already have it, all the better. In terms of sound quality alone, the Utopia obviously beats out the IE 900. But in terms of enjoyment, I enjoyed it almost as much as the Utopia. It goes to show that synergy is king at the end of the day. What a pairing!
1. Now they are made in Ireland
Unfortunately I don't have the IE900 in my possession but yes , what I wrote in the review is what I was hearing.
They are iems so keep your expectations in check. Not saying it's not possible but iems will still stage like iems. At least that's my experience. IE 900 still has decent stage but I do not hear it extending beyond any of my ears.
It's been a long time since I had the Shure SE846, but I remember the SE846 being on the bulky side. IE900 is smaller all across the board and can sleep on the side with them which is a bit harder to do on the SE846 because it bulges a bit.
