Just take off Your ATE back covers to compare, they are same sounding to me as grill modded when open back.
Then You`ll know if Your 5-hole mod sounds different and makes them more bassy.

I would have if I hadn't Super Glued them back together.

Yesterday I found a brand new Sony MH1c IEMs on the bottom of a drawer on my desk.
They came with my Xperia Z1 but I never tried them.
Today I decided to give them a try and I was amazed by the SQ.
Is there someone who own both of this headphones and can compare the SQ of the KZ ED9s with the one from the Sony MH1c ?
I bought 2 pairs of the tuna variant of the ED9 - they sounded distinctively different. Which I felt was strange.
One of them sounded indeed incredibly good, unbelievably good. Not only for that money, in general. However after two weeks the cable basically fell out of the housing and that was that.
i now have the ATE incoming. They seem to be build much sturdier from the pics.

I have both MIC and non MIC version of ED9. Too my ears, they has different sound.
Yep, seems that they have quite a wide spread in the production. My two identical sets sounded very different. One was really sublime and one was good (but not great). So - I can see why some people don't like them and others are raving...
I popped in my ANV tonight after using almost nothing but the ED9 and ATE since receiving them. The following comments will probably not be supported by the majority, lol.
The ANV compare pretty favorably to KZs new heavy hitters...
They have wonderfully tight and punchy bass, with great sub-bass extension, plus forward and clean, unveiled mids. As with the ATE, piano's in particular sound powerful and natural however I like the extra weight the ANVs carries with it's note presentation. The treble with my filter mod is still a touch dry and not as smooth as the ATE's, but it's more detailed and better extended. Pretty similar to the ED9 (with brass filter + foam mod). I also love the soundstage. It seems to sit right between that of the ATE and ED9. One thing it bests both at, for me, is comfort. The cable on the ED9 is too bouncy, and I can only get a consistently good seal on the ATE with the Piston Triple flange tips (which I find quite uncomfortable). The ANV with large Sony hybrids seat instantly and disappear.
Overall the ANV are not quite as clean in the upper regions as either the ED9 or ATE, but it holds its own everywhere else and is still a great listen. I especially love the bass presentation in comparison to the other two.
KZ rocks. Micro Ring forever.
Ya know, I wrote off my ANV for a while. I revisited them and I have to say they are a decent listen, and the build quality is incredible.I popped in my ANV tonight after using almost nothing but the ED9 and ATE since receiving them.
