Kiwi Ears Quintet
4 Driver Types, 5 Drivers per Side
The Kiwi Ears Quintet is equipped with five drivers per side, combining 1 Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) dynamic driver, 2 balanced armature (BA) drivers, 1 planar magnetic driver, and 1 piezoelectric (PZT) bone conductor.
More Information...With a total of 5 drivers per each ear, the Quintet delivers extremely high-resolution audio comparable to professional studio monitors. A large 10mm DLC driver was selected as the sub-woofer due to DLC’s high responsiveness and tensile strength, which pumps out impactful bass slams, but with fast decay speeds. 2 Knowles balanced armature drivers deliver natural and resolving mids, a classic example of why balanced armatures are beloved in the industry.
PLANAR TWEETER TECHNOLOGY
The Quintet’s driver configuration includes the innovative Micro Planar Transducers (MPT), which are a new advancement in the IEM industry.
More Information...These new tweeters feature the classic planar magnetic driver circuitry but with a smaller footprint for use in hybrid designs. With an extremely low noise floor and high output capacity, these planar magnetic drivers deliver crisp and detailed treble that is unique from typical BA or EST (electrostatic) tweeters used in most IEM’s today. Finally, a piezoelectric driver was utilized to deliver ultra-treble microdetail and air. In R&D testing, the presence of the PZT driver significantly enhanced perceived audio resolution, texture, and sound stage, making it a no-brainer to be an addition in the Quintet.
Micro Planar Transducers (MPT) Drivers
Achieving a high quality ultra-treble has been a challenge in the IEM industry. BA drivers are compact, but offer low ultra-treble extension, and are also limited by their output and timbre quality.
More Information...The MPT drivers in the Quintet maintain consistent sound pressure from 4kHz to 14kHz and extend treble up to 40kHz. This provides greater flexibility in tuning and delivers a higher sense of resolution, creating an airy, spacious soundstage.
Balanced and Natural Sound
Achieving a balanced tonal signature was central to the design of the Quintet. The IEM provides strong sub-bass with a 9dB shelf, transitioning smoothly into flat mids at 300Hz, and a well-tuned treble peak at 3kHz.
More Information...The result is a completely balanced tone that accurately reflects the best qualities of each driver. The sub-bass hits strong and fast, with a 9dB shelf that transitions into a flat mids at 300Hz. This mids-bass transition ensures that there is a slight warmth in the lower mids for bass guitar notes to be in the mix, but still retain a studio-monitor-like neutrality to the upper mids.
HiFi Audio Performance
The combination of 5 drivers per ear, including the innovative MPT and PZT drivers, enables the Quintet to produce an ultra-high resolution audio experience.
More Information...With enhanced sound texture, improved audio resolution, and a wide soundstage, the Quintet sets a new standard in IEM performance.
