I find a frequency response of ed9 with the 2 nozzles, is the sound heared in mind like this? Could guess the two color curves represent which nozzles?

Hi, which line is which filter?

From my perspective light green looks like brass filter and green is of gold filter.

Damn it, guys, so ANV is awesome too? Oh well, guess I have to find out, there goes another couple of dollars..

  Haven`t still received my translucent black version of ATE but it might be different sounding than silver one. One guy from my country local forum had really bright and sibilance highs by his words with black version. Sounds nothing like my silver ATE was

And another guy said his unit is good, with littlebit smoothed highs.

If there is a difference I would believe it's caused by the difference in materials in the Plastic Shells. I would think the Clear shells would be harder material. Just guessing on this one Coil.
I will let you know if I get mine before you do. Mine is tied up in transit between different points in the State which I live.... Dumbas*es

I found my ATE to be like the AN16; lacking subbass, relaxed but detailed treble, warm, slightly forward vocals that work best with women's voices. They're both the type of iem that you can use all day without experiencing fatigue, in my experience.

Do you think that ATE is as good or better than AN16?

  I think the ED9 is still meant to sound better, but I impulse bought them because they look good. I ordered them from taobao and am planning to get them forwarded by yoybuy forwarding service. They cost 78 yuan (inc shipping within china) + whatever international shipping will cost. 
 
I went for the "wheat edition" over the standard one, whatever that means.....

Do you like Tenore more than ATE and ED9?

  Do you like Tenore more than ATE and ED9?

My preferred sound signature is probably more towards a brighter and more detailed sound so out of those 3 my most preferred would prob be the ED9, then the Carbo tenore and then the ATE.

I'm sure the AN16 is probably the 'better' of the two, but I prefer the ATE. It has a touch more treble emphasis than the AN16, and slightly deeped bass. The AN16 is too laid back and relaxed for my preferences. I generally lean towards bright and bassy, hence my love of JVC phones and the Titan 1. However, stuff like the ATE definitely still has a place in my listening portfolio.

I can't find a Fault at all with the sound of the ANV it's just beautiful. The only Fault I can find is maybe they aren't quite the comfort level of the smaller KZs as they are larger and apparently made of a heavier ceramic material. 

What are You talking about?

They are ultra-comfortable, perfect size and lightest IEM I`ve ever had!

Btw, I tested many things and so far only way to boost littlebit ANV sub-bass is to cover breathing holes on black plastic... BUT... it can cause damage to drivers when inserting tips into ears because air doesn`t escape from chamber and membrane gets "squeezed" backwards. If done gently then ok but I already got one "click" and right channel sounded weird. Had to do some same moves that membrane got back to its own shape again. I have some other ideas how to get that little sub-bass boost but need to experiment more.
I will probably also do nozzle-change mod (for using ED9 nozzles) because for my ears ANV nozzle is littlebit short.
Fun fun fun...

That looks fantastic CoiL. Great job man!

For those who rare few that have been itching to get the Micro Ring, this is the lowest price I've seen them at for a while now; 16 USD. Seller has good feedback so it might be worth the pick up.

How do they compare sound wise to ED9 and ATE?

I personally like them more, but I'll definitely be in the minority here. They're pretty old and build quality isn't nearly as good as, well, pretty much anything else KZ offers, lol. They still offer up quality sound though; quick yet deep bass (more than ATE, but not as much as ED9 [gold]), warm and forward mids (similar to ATE), great soundstage, detailed treble (it lacks that sparkle the ED9 [gold or brass] has, and is more like ATE). They're right up there with the ANV as my fav KZ iems. 
 
I more posted that link for those who mentioned they wanted a pair much, much earlier in the thread, in case they haven't bought them and were still interested. More of a "complete the collection" kinda thing.
