Yes they've updated their MMCX connections for the IE900. They also have a cable specifically designed for the IE900.Did they have to fit special mmcx connectors for this?
I am really enjoyuing the 900s. They seem to light up the music from within.

A new thread for me to post in as a new owner of a Brise Audio product, thanks to @Nostoi! Thie BSEP for IE900 arrived today, incredibly impressive looking and feeling cable - I intially thought there was a volume difference versus IE900 stock cable but I think that was time of day and my brain was more tuned in to work, not a good time on a coffee break to test a new toy for a few mins! One minor annoyance is the IEMs sit very loose and freely rotate when not in my ears, the same as with the IER-M9... I can live with it but just means a bit more work inserting in my ears.
Anyway, pictures...

Yes I hear you on how they sit. I find the memory wire needs some tweaking so that they remain put. It also helps to have the slider fairly high to tighten the slack.A new thread for me to post in as a new owner of a Brise Audio product, thanks to @Nostoi!

Yes same here - they actually swung off my ears at first but a bit of adjustment keeps them in. Yes slider right the way up also.
Off for my morning walk shortly so will see how they pass that test.
I need to find another case for them as too big for the IE900 case!
This case should work well with the cable and a DAP. Fits my Lotoo and the Brise very well. This is also a fantastic case, albeit more expensive.Yes same here - they actually swung off my ears at first but a bit of adjustment keeps them in. Yes slider right the way up also.

The Brise I have still fits the IE900 case, but it's defo a tight fit and I wouldn't want to apply any pressure on it.
The wire config on your cable actually looks more like the Asuha Ref 2 style, thicker, which makes sense because both are 8 strands. Here's a photo of the Asuha Ref 2 wire beside the STR7-Ref, the latter being 4-core.A new thread for me to post in as a new owner of a Brise Audio product, thanks to @Nostoi!

Sorry for the late reply, but here is my opinion.Worth to upgrade from Yatono 4w to ultimate?
If you have a lot of disposable money that you have no where else to spend, then yeah, why not, its a clear upgrade after all. But if you are not willing to spend that much on a cable, then you should be just as well off with your first generation yatono 4w.
FYI, I personally rank the Asuha ref 2 above the original Yatono 4w, and I rank the Yatono ultimate just slightly above Asuha Ref 2.

@Nostoi Do you know whether any cable with MMCX connectors from Brise will fit the IE 900, or is it config specific to the IE 900 that must be requested?
You have to ask for the IE900 specific MMCX plugs. I can confirm that my other Brise cable which has MMCX plugs will not fit the IE900.@Nostoi Do you know whether any cable with MMCX connectors from Brise will fit the IE 900, or is it config specific to the IE 900 that must be requested?

I hadn't actually thought to use a DAP and accessory case, I have a couple that will certainly accommodate.
I tried mine in the IE900 case but too much of a squeeze so not suitable.

Yes that looks to be the case. The additional weight is fine but I'll probably need to use a shirt clip to keep from swinging about.
I chose not to use it for walking and reverted to my TW2 - true wireless buds definitely best for out walking and I tend to listen to audiobooks anyway.
