I like it very much, but i can't tell if you are going to like it.
 
I personally don't think that speakers or headphones should change the tonality of the music, so my ideal is a flat frequency response.
I simply don't get why anyone would want their components to change the sound of instruments like a Bösendorfer Grand or something.

Anyone living in Canada, specially British Columbia know where to buy these? Can't seem to find a authorized dealer or someone who's legit.

I got my UE 900s directly from UE at pro.ultimateears.com

They ship to Canada via UPS next day delivery. UPS charges Canada customs & taxes at delivery.

I swear, they are going to cost over $650 cad just to get these in Canada

How much import tax did you have to pay?

I bought mine off an aussie guy here on Head-Fi and, I can't recall how much it was, but it wasn't enough for me to remember. lol

Ended up in that vicinity

92$ and change; but I'm in Quebec. Thats GST + Provincial sales tax (around 15% together) + UPS brokerage fee

That's quite a bit. BC is 12% tax total. Maybe around 70-80 for me if I order

I've had the 900S for over a year. I kept going back to my Shure E5 for isolation especially flying and punchy bass. My E5 broke so I upgraded to SE535.

Now I'm tending to prefer the 900S. I'm using FiiO 12A. Flat EQ with the 12A bass boost is ideal for the UE's.

Just finished reading all pages 283 and is now awaiting the arrive of my ue900s to ship from Amazon. Just hoping I get the actual ue900s and not the ue900.. >.<

Not sure why the post before this doesn't have any text.

Basically I typed that I just finished reading all 283 pages of this thread and can't wait for my ue900s to arrive. I bought them from Amazon and hope they are the ue900s and not the ue900 in a ue900s box.

Hi.
 
This happened to mine as well. I was gutted, and hid them in a drawer for months. Then i finally decided I might as well try to fix them.
 
I took some "instant glue"/"super-glue" - you know the universal clear glue in very small containers, that dries very fast. It is clear and quite low viscosity - almost like water. I used a pin to apply the glue along all of the very small ridge there is on the black part. Then just press the parts together. If you have a third hand tool with a loupe it is MUCH easier...
 
PS: Looks like you are from Denmark. I live in Hørsholm if you need help

Cable is still intact though, so could probably clue the housing back together. This is the original non unibody version of the UE900.

Managed to glue it back together as well, seem to work fine. Actually yesterday it happened again on the left side, so had to find the glue again. I wonder if the original glue has issues with cold, as this time it happened the day after after a snowboarding session.
 
Thanks for the offer of help also. I do not live in Denmark anymore, but I was actually born in Hoersholm

Hi Jacob.
 
Good to hear you got them working again. 

 
Funny that you are actually from Hørsholm - what are the odds...
