I owned the M5s, bought the SA6s. Sold the M5s, and I liked them. Never listen to trance, so can't comment on that. But to me, the Sleeks offer a much more balanced sound than the Atrios, and by modding the bass+ module (a small pin through the middle of it), you can boost the bass (with clean bass, not muddy). As for microphonics, a cheap shirt clip ($6) can alleviate much of the noise. Also, I sometimes rotate the cable so it is away from my collar when walking, which resolves the microphonics.
