Sony WH-ULT900N Announcement on April 11
Sony has finally teased their upcoming WH-ULT900N wireless noise cancellation headset. The main clue is the ULTIMATE wording in the teaser. Likewise the video hashtags also indicate we are looking at an audio product, such as audio, music, sound, and bass. The video also has uses the ultimate hashtag further connecting the announcement to the new headset.
The design and most of the specifications have leaked and can be found in my post below.
Update April 10
Quick update, so it appears that the WH-ULT900N will NOT support LDAC according to its specifications on Sony’s own support page. I honestly hope this is typo, otherwise this would be a major downgrade from the WH-XB910N. The retail listing from Italy mentioned LDAC support, so not sure what the deal is now. Guess we wait for the reveal now.
Sony WH-ULT900N Specifications
The headset is described as “Wireless Bluetooth Headphones with ULT POWER SOUND and deep bass”. There is a ULT button on which allows the user to select 2 different modes. This is where the ultimate branding comes from.
- Deep Bass – adds more weight to the vibrant lower frequencies
- Attack Bass – increases the energy
The design of the headset can be seen below for those who have not seen it.
Sony will have a live event on YouTube this upcoming week on Wednesday, April 11th at 9am PST. Time zones for other areas:

One aspect of the video title I find puzzling is rather than “product announcement”, it says “products announcement”. Can we expect something else to be revealed? I know Sony has a new neckband speaker coming, so perhaps this will be revealed as well.
