  I've been using Zircon as my daily drivers since I got them a few months ago. But as far as I remember they sounded just like they sound now.
I hold the opinion that what burns in are not the earphones, it's your ears that get adjusted to the sound.

Or maybe Your Ears have just adjusted to the Changes?

  Guy's, which ED9's are the one's to get?
 
i keep seeing people mention brass nozzles but when looking on aliexpress i can't find this particular model

I actually bought my first ones from AliEx Tuna.
Then I bought this pair:

Then I recently bought these youth addition and can't hear or see any difference than my other two pair!

I've had good luck with BangGood over a couple years. Never any problems, ship times are average. Only odd thing is that if you have a problem they always want a picture before granting the return. Doesn't make a lot of sense but the return went fine.

Hello,
I'm following this thread for few months now, i have bought the ED8, ATE, ANV, ED10, ED9.
I'm not a pro, but to my ears they all sound good and some better.
One day i found a really interesting pair of IEM on aliexpress, called DOBOLY Q18.
And they cost.......wait........3.79 USD.
They kick all of the KZ's ass's and for third the price.
They're supposed to have JCV HA FX500's drivers.
Anyway, they have the most amazing bass i have ever heard. I can not describe them because i don't have the vocabulary.

Wow, that's pretty cool! I just got my Xiaomi Hybrids in the mail and they are pretty much perfect, but for $4 I'm more than willing to see if they can be beaten. Thanks for the recommendation!

That doboly is already there for 1-2 years. I tried one of my friend's here in Indonesia, and yes it's warmish, bass heavy, but mid and high are still well pronounced.

I recommend you this,

(from AliExpress Android)

Better fitting (for me and most of people) sound supposedly the same.

S3 sounds good! Does the official store carry it?

  KZ has now 3 versions of the KZ-ED3's: the KZ-ED3 originals, KZ-ED3 Youth Version, and now the KZ-ED3 S3, which is to me by far the best in its' class. The KZ-S3, as it is named, has excellent soundstage with great texture providing crisp highs, luscious mids and a quick, clean, and accurate bass response that is very hard to beat. I've burned them well over 100 hours and are good for some serious monitoring at home. Right now, I'm enjoying them so much, they are my to and from work travel buddies. And finally, the wires are actually different! A relief from the usual rubbery wires that many here tend to complain about with little to no microphonics.
 
Check out the KZ-S3 at the links below.....

They cost "dirt cheap" here in China.....!
