One version of Chinese pretty girls or... ? How can people hear such big sound differences in one single earphone?

 

[tsetse7]

Got my translucent black ATE today. Got to let them burn-in littlebit before sharing impressions. From what I`ve heard so far out of them, seems to sound same as silver ones (from memory). Will grill-mod them again for sure, this time with wood+golden grill+custom cable ;P
Plastic molding is much better quality than silver but nozzle neck is still not sure what "gender" it is, lol.
 
About ANV, I really think I need to do exchangeable nozzle mod too because I`m not sure I`m getting 100% proper fit - need longer nozzles. Want to try ED9 golden nozzles on them to boost littlebit sub-bass.
 
Btw, added some walnut today to my wood-mod ANV, looks much nicer now imo:
 

Spoiler: KZ Pr0n!

 
One thing I regret - leaving stock cable. It`s not bad but want something better.
Unfortunately can`t change it anymore, permanent. Oh well... another reason to buy 2nd ANV

With the ANV, try some large Sony silicone hybrid tips if you have any. For me at least, that allows them to perch right at the edge of my ear canal but still seal perfectly. With any other tip I lose out on that juicy sub-bass.

Edit: Your custom woodie ANVs look phenomenal! Wow!!

I got my ANV there. No longer available though. :/

 

[B9Scrambler]

Scrambler, You noticed that too? HOW do they get MASSIVE Bass when called for, yet it doesn't overpower any of the other Frequencies? Just more proof to me that the Bass specs are way underrated. I bet if you ran a Frequency generator through this you could get 2Hz out of them. I mean Some EDM and Trance Frequencies are insanely low and the ANVs don't even blink with them, even at High Volume with a 6 dB Bass boost engaged on my Fiio E12. This kind of stuff will make the ED9 get a little muddy even.

TWIN

I sure did. My first pair could not reproduce bass like this second pair. I wish I had a good amp to test them on, as I feel the extra juice would be really beneficial.

Can`t use large ones, I have small earcanals. I`m already using ED9 grey medium ones (so far best fit with them) but I feel need it to go little deeper. Sony hybrids doesn`t help and some others also not so good. Only option left for me is nozzle-mod... and I want it anyway to play with nozzles
 
Edit: Wonder how RE bi-flanges work with ANV. Can someone can try? https://www.head-direct.com/Products/?act=detail&id=33#

 

[chavez]

On which of the two,ED9 and ATE,does this sound better?
 
 

 

[CoiL]

If You are sensitive to highs like I am and both IEMs in stock configuration, then I would say ATE. ED9 has brighter and littlebit "airier" signature, ATE smoother/warmer.
Bass/drum hit littlebit harder on ED9 while ATE sounds more balanced/neutral.
 
Btw, ordered some Triple-flange tips for ANV. Will report back about them.

 

[jmwreck]

I have tried the brass tips of the ED9, but I can't get a good sound out of it, it sounded so thin and lifeless, even though I have changed the tips from stock to comply. I went back to the gold tips and removed the grills and foam, now it became a lot better.

Did You check if tiny filter pieces are properly on place inside brass filters on breathing holes?
