You ordered a UE900?
Nah, he's talking about his Studio V. Aren't you Lee. :rolleyes:

I don't know why, but I am strangely attracted to this iem. I am very seriously considering it, but honestly, I hate paying retail and wonder who else will be selling these and how soon? It be great if earphonesolutions were to sell them .
The 3rd anniv. Studio is kicking *****, I love it!
Edit: I was going through the check out at the apple store, but they don't offer paypal
My wife would KILL me if she sees this on my Bank Statement!...I keep my Head-Fi budget on my Paypal accounth34r:
Was curious and tried to check out at the Apple Store. It says delivery by Sept 4-5 with Next day shipping.
I called Apple and they said it'll be available in Apple Stores in Sept. 10. But online it might take 1-2 weeks for stocks to arrive.
I got confused by all that. I definitely think it'll ship out and come either on the 4th or 5th.
If I wasn't getting the upcoming "Rumored" iPhone, then I might consider this...
To me, and I'm just listening to 256 through my iphone, it sounds similar to the triple.fi. In terms of bass, I'd say it's about the same from what I've heard, the treble is there too... maybe a tiny tiny bit less, and I can hear more mids, which may explain why I think there might be less treble? I've never heard the reference monitors, but these sound more energetic than the se425's from what I can remember. I think they extend farther at both sides of the spectrum against both the se425 and 535 for that matter. Everything is crystal clear and the soundstage seems as good as the triples if not better. I'd still say they are slightly V shaped in sound signature for my ears, which is what I like.
Thanks for the impressions. Glad they seem to be what you're looking for, too.
You mentioned the UE900's mids are more upfront than the treble.. yet they seem to have a 'v-shaped' response (enhanced bass & treble fq w/ recessed mids). I'm not sure I understand as those two impressions seem contradictory. If it's the former, I sense these might be closer to the Shure sound signature (bass is slightly enhanced, mids are upfront, and treble is set back (in relation to the midrange)). If it's the latter, it seems closer to the TF.10 sound signature.
