That wasn't meant as a put down Chavez, I dearly love the KZ's as well. I just had to tell someone, how elated and yes, fortunate, I am to be able to spare the money for them. As I truly hope for Your own good fortune sometime in the very near future.
 
I am truly Blessed.

  On another note, as compensation for botching my ATE order, the KZ store sent me two of their new cases (my requested compensation). They're not bad, but the old round case is better; more spacious and better built. These look sweet though (my pic sucks...).
 
 

 
Do your KZ cases smell like a tire fire like mine do?

Would you recommend the kz ate or one of the other kz for electronic/dub step music. Also how is the fit and the tips. Im seing more talk about the other kz products on here, and was considering getting an ate before but now idk.

Generally all the KZ's are quite Bass Heavy. All of mine do EDM QUITE well.

  Im leaning towards the kz ate because they look to have better fit for jogging and gym, but also for daily use.

 
The wires are pretty light and springy, even with the brass weights so they may pop over your ears if you bob while jogging. Those silicon earhooks that are on aliexpress do mitigate it to some degree though.

No! ANV, ED9 (brass), ATE - none of those are bass heavy. They do EDM ok but they are not bass heavy by any means.

ATE good part for EDM is its soundstage but by sound signature/music genre, I would take ED9 and maybe even use gold filters for EDM.

ATE comes with a pair of silicone earhooks. I received one with mine.

Where did You order from Eisen? I didn`t get any ear-hooks/wire guides with my pair.

This store with ear-hooks/wire guides http://group.aliexpress.com/brandDetail.htm?spm=2114.7749990.100213.13.6TdAD0&catId=70806
But didn't thinks it is useful. Suggest is like memory cable. But they said it is just with a wire so that is called "memory cable". How about your mind of these two kinds headphones like ATE's cable, and other "memory cable" ear hook headphone? I hope they could send me headphone case. haha

Ordered mine from official KZ shop (Shenzhen Yuanze Electronics).
(that initial ~9$ silver ATE deal).

You definitely need the earhooks as they jump and bounce too much when running. The only way I could finish my run with them was to tuck them under my glasses. The best solution on the cheap IMO is the bendy metal wire you get on the meelec m6 pro. Once you have that shaped to your ear, it keeps rigid and does not move at all.
