  Thanks. How about the new ATE S?
 
Thanks. Micro Ring seems hard to find. ZS1 looks like a difficult fit. 

How about the HDS1? I'd be open to a more neutral IEM if it's not too sparkly in the highs.
Also, the ED11 looks the same like the ED10. What are the main differences?

Have no experience with ATE-S or ED11, but own the ED10 and original ATE, which you probably get for less. ATE is more or less pretty laid back . Also own the HDS1, which is pretty awesome IMO. I don't know why I didn't think of this in my original post, other than you asked for a KZ with a "warm and smooth" sound sig

True. I was stating that cause most of my current IEMs would be categorised as smooth and warm. I think the Piston 3 is quite neutral though and I quite like it although it could do with a bit more bass. I´ll take a gamble on the HDS1 then. The no mic version is dirt cheap on Banggood at the moment.

Fell in love with the ATEs and ANVs(broken ) and I'm going to buy another KZs, I mainly listen to hard rock, EDM, ... Loved the quick bass of ANV and the sparkle, smooth high of ATEs. I think i'll order the HDS1, according to the review it suits me best

Good choice nhlean96 The HSD1 is flat out fantastic.

  Rotating between HDS1 and ZS1. What a bass ZS1 has! After some burn in I think the bass has settled and doesn't sound little sloppy as it did before. It's so much more under control now. Still I'd say ZS1 will be most enticing for the bass lovers. On a busy, noisy street ZS1 was absolute pleasure to listen. It did isolate very well as well as kept that bass punching hard.
 
Btw, HDS1 look so cute! It's my most favorite looking KZ IEM. 
 
 
   
 
 
 
 
 

This HDS1 color looks nice, thanks of @HiFichris review

So what to choose to 11$? I will be using IEM-s with Redmi Note 2?
I hesitate between HDS1, ED10 and ATE?

Has any of You measured HDS1 and ZS1 actual impedances with cable?

The HiFiChris, suggest "Especially the HDS1 is worth to be checked out." the HDS1 also lower than others, but the seller with attached shipping cost, I really hate they setting low price induce me to click, then add the price to shipping cost. VERY boring.

HiFiChris Great reviews. So hard on the ZS1 though (jk). I love em to death but they're a bit of a niche iem.
