Hi, I've been lurking this thread a few months and have read most of it. Want to say thanks to everyone who has posted here, it has helped to burn many hours of free time but also gotten me some neat bang for the buck IEMs.

So far I've gotten (in order of purchase) ATE, ED10, Micro rings and finally today arrived the ANVs. It's been pretty much a lottery though because I've encountered QC issues. Will post impressions and comparisons later when i get the time to.
 
But the main reason I made the account is because the ANV I recieved today have driver imbalance on the bass side. The right side has a full and punchy bass, the other side pretty much nothing at all. The air holes don't seem obstructed or anything, but the mesh seems to be a tiny bit more pushed in on the less bassy side. 
 
Any idea how to open them without damaging them (the look rather nice) or in any other ways to fix them. Don't have time to try anything today as work awaits.

Just pull them apart by holding one hand on plastic side and other on metal.

  I've found a TaoBao store that raises many questions about the actual originality of the KZ's earphones...

About KZ proucts have to explain:
KZ is the brand design original initial headphone. The KZ (Knowledge Zenith) brand is blong to Yuanze co., Ltd(will see the company name in the packaging). KZ research the driver, housing each part by KZ self. May find ED11 model and other proucts similar as KZ proucts. It is customized, ODM, or may be imitation.

Yep. I feel the same way about the Mula. BIG letdown after it's sibling the Rock Zircon.
 
I ordered 2 pairs of the Mulas that are now destined for "The Drawer"....

Yeah, I feel the same about the Mula's.

Out of those I own my ranking is like this:
ED9 w/brass filter
Mr Rice BALDOOR E300
Piston 2.0
KZ EDSE
Rock Mula
KZ ATE

I'm pretty sure that there's something wrong with my ATE. Alternatively I don't get a good seal but I don't think that's the case since the IM70 that's very similar fits me fine.

That was a listing in alphabetical order only my top 3 would be~
 
ED9
ATE
Piston 2\EDse
 
I agree something must be wrong with your ATE if you placed them last.

Yes, understood.

I just wanted to say that I shared your impressions on the Mula's and ED9's and listed them all while I was at it :wink:

I also ordered the Monks from feebay and paid for "faster" shipping...seems like people who have heard them love them. We will see.
