Unleash Superior Sound with the All-New Kiwi Ears Quintet

With a dedication to exceptional audio quality, Kiwi Ears merges technological advancements with precise tuning to meet the demands of musicians and studio engineers. Their new IEM, the Quintet, features four unique driver types: a DLC dynamic driver, two balanced armature drivers, a planar magnetic driver, and a piezoelectric bone conductor. This combination ensures a balanced tonal signature, delivering impactful bass, neutral upper mids, detailed treble, and an expansive soundstage for an immersive audio experience.

Advanced Quad-Driver Array for Superior Sound

The Kiwi Ears Quintet incorporates four unique driver types: a Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) dynamic driver, two balanced armature (BA) drivers, a planar magnetic driver, and a piezoelectric (PZT) bone conductor. Each earpiece houses five drivers in total, offering studio-monitor-level high-resolution audio. The 10mm DLC driver serves as the subwoofer, delivering powerful bass with quick decay, while two Knowles BA drivers handle the mid-range with natural clarity.

Innovative Planar Tweeter System with Piezoelectric Driver

Kiwi Ears addresses the challenge of ultra-treble reproduction with the Micro Planar Transducers (MPT) system. This 5mm tweeter driver delivers treble frequencies from 4kHz to 40kHz with consistent sound pressure at 14kHz, providing versatile tuning options. The MPT driver offers a more natural tonal texture compared to traditional BA or electrostatic drivers, enhancing the audio mix. Additionally, the PZT driver contributes ultra-treble detail and an airy quality, improving resolution, texture, and soundstage.

Balanced Sound Signature Across All Frequencies

The Quintet is meticulously tuned to deliver a balanced sound profile. The sub-bass is impactful and fast, with a 9dB shelf transitioning into flat mids at 300Hz, adding subtle warmth without muddiness. The treble features a precise peak at 3kHz, aligning with the human ear's natural perception, and tapers off into an extended range up to 40kHz, creating detailed and airy treble with a broad soundstage.

Exceptional Mid-Range and Treble Clarity

The two Knowles BA drivers in the Quintet ensure mid-range frequencies are natural and highly resolving, maintaining the beloved tone characteristic of BA drivers. The planar tweeter system enhances treble quality with low-noise, high-output precision, while the PZT driver adds micro-detail and spaciousness to the upper frequencies.

Comprehensive Engineering for Optimal Performance

The Quintet's development involved nearly a year of rigorous engineering to seamlessly integrate the various driver types. The result is a harmonious blend of each driver's strengths, providing a robust sub-bass, neutral mids, and detailed, extended treble. This sophisticated tuning ensures an immersive and high-fidelity listening experience.

Kiwi Ears integrates 3D-printed resin shells with metal faceplates to accommodate its five driver types, ensuring precise audio performance.

2-Pin Connector

Featuring a user-friendly replaceable 2-pin connector system, the Quintet supports seamless compatibility with various cables for optimal signal transmission.

Detachable Cable With 3.5mm Termination

The Quintet includes a detachable oxygen-free silver-plated copper cable with a 3.5mm single-ended termination, ensuring superior signal transmission for an enhanced listening experience.

RAGHAV SOMANI

It is a solid value for money IEM (And still an excellent one even when the value aspect is omitted) and worth keeping even if you already own higher end stuff.
The Quintet excel in achieving the rare combination of large soundstage and precise imaging, with exceptional clarity and treble extension in their price range.
Given that there are so many great models out on the market right now, it’s rare to find a sound signature this memorable, especially considering the price.
In my opinion, that’s a much better way to go, and considering how successfully Kiwi Ears has tuned Quintet, the end-result speaks for itself.
The Kiwi Ears Quintet is an engaging, well-tuned pair of IEMs that make use of a unique 5-driver configuration.
The Quintet have that X-factor in the form of class-leading upper-treble extension. They also significantly lower the barrier of entry for a pair of quadbrid IEMs.

Quintet is definitely worth considering

As someone who's not deeply entrenched in the world of audiophiles but has experience with a few IEMs, I found the KE Quintet to be a standout choice.
The mids on the Quintet are particularly impressive, offering a clear and immersive experience that's perfect for vocals and instruments. The bass, while not overpowering, is just right for my taste, providing a solid foundation without drowning out other frequencies. The detailing and sound separation are exceptional, making it easy to distinguish individual elements within the music.
the KE Quintet offers an amazing listening experience with clear mids, detailed sound separation, and just the right amount of bass.

This makes us really happy and we really appreciate the genuine feedback! Your review will definitely help fellow audiophiles to make an informed decision.

A very smooth and clear IEM

Mids are very good. Bass is neat. But not very tight. Highs are pleasing. Quality of materials is top notch.

Hey Murali, thanks a lot for your amazing review!
