@Podster we both know the ATE has had many versions and revisions. Would you say the ATR is similar to any particular ATE version, or is a new beast altogether?

Sorry Vap, I only had the original translucent and then I got the "S" version and like many other iem's (Thinking my TFZ'z right off the bat) prefer the original/1st run. But the ATR is better than both of those in all ranges, but everyone keep in mind this is just my hearing and observations! While retaining the best of both the earlier models they sound cleaner and smoother to me. I went back and forth several times with the translucent's and the ATR and the improvement is clear

No apologies necessary my man - I had the same model ATE's. I hated the S. Next time i need a set i will be sure to go for the ATR. Thank you!

I got mine from Ebay at 10 usd, they are working well. No problem at all. But I think it's a lottery. They can be from the first ZS3 lot, which had some quality issues, but mine are fine!

Did you get them with a package etc.?

Yes, original package, cardboard and plastic lid, sealed.

Well I just got crap luck, I modded my ATE a while ago and now....I seem so have lost one of the covers I modded. Pit cardboard on it as temp thing to cover it.....if I don't find it I'll need to buy a new pair for the grill and cover...

Looking at that shot of the KZ12 I'd say the designers at KZ have been out drinking with the guys at TFZ

I just got my ZS3 today from the 10 dollar eBay seller. No issues so far and came in the full retail packaging. I ordered Aug 5th. I'm on the east coast of the US just for reference.

Initial impressions are good. Enjoying more than the ATE so far, but jury is still out vs ED9.

I was thinking exactly the same thing. Still haven't ordered the ZS3 but I might just grab these instead.
