Doesn't Feel Like $220... | Kiwi Ears Quintet Review

[@ForeverBlackCat]

You are an excellent reviewer with wonderful detailed descriptions. Thank you

[@Blxnksy]

Something minimal looking like that would be great if you’ll be using them in public imo (walking around in a city, etc.)

[@fiddlix]

Excellent and most awesome review. I think you just sold me on the Chopin. Visceral bass, and the more controlled and smoother uppers is what sealed the deal for me. Keep up the good work my friend.

[@ImAWSMDanny]

Thanks for tuning in. Hopefully Chopin is on sale soon with CNY coming up. That would make it better.

[@fiddlix]

@@ImAWSMDanny The CNY sale is exactly what I was waiting on.

[@EricJorgensen1]

Ooh. Been waiting for this one!

[@SpacedOutDoonie]

Nice review. That driver combo is insane.

[@ImAWSMDanny]

Thanks! Yea super uncommon, would love to see a Quintet re-release with a prettier faceplate sometime soon. It would be an instant buy.

[@BassDad8]

You’re on point Danny. Excellent assessment of this set. ☮️

[@BassDad8]

And I’ll double down on that because I have the Chopin too. You really nailed it brother. I mean Nailed IT!!!

[@ImAWSMDanny]

Thank you sir 🫡

[@nickmiller9422]

Another great review Danny. Maybe Kiwi saw Jim sell plastic and thought... ya know...

[@ImAWSMDanny]

Kiwi Ears getting the bag

[@HobbyTalk]

I’ve been wanting to try some kiwi stuff like this

[@Inserthouse]

I have the variations and now these. Faceplates are definitely subpar but the sound is very good. I guess when I get the monarch MKII or MKIII I will get the best of both worlds 😅

[@ImAWSMDanny]

Hopefully I get to demo Monarch in SoCal this year.

[@kenjikodai]

What do ya think of the variations compared to these? I own a Vari and I'm interested in the quintets

[@ImAWSMDanny]

Variations is hard to put up against other sets since it plays my library so well. Quintet is good but does not come that close to Vari. While Quintet is very clean and well separated it still lacks the same refinement that Vari has.

[@kenjikodai]

@@ImAWSMDanny sounds like a skip for the quintet then, off to check bqeyz winter for their BC lol

[@ImAWSMDanny]

I hear good stuff on the Winter Ultra, makes me want to check it out

[@SileDevil]

nice honest review

[@ImAWSMDanny]

Thanks, I appreciate it

[@thuraoo2295]

Nice review. I’m a Quintet owner. U reviewed the set 100% as exactly as it is.

[@ImAWSMDanny]

Hello and thanks! I believe it's not up to me to decide what people like so my focus is always to convey the experience as well as possible. I appreciate your feedback.

[@hokagoteatimereviews]

Wow they look great for the price. Wonder how they compare to the upcoming doscinco. Will you be getting the doscinco for review? Great review!

[@ImAWSMDanny]

I have no idea. Thanks for tuning in.

[@SwordAndBored]

Very nice review! Thank you.

[@ImAWSMDanny]

Thanks homie

[@zeeejay]

i laughed every time the backdrop was sunny's fur lol

[@ImAWSMDanny]

I can't belive he let me get those pictures

[@Jaytiss]

I feel the same, it's like the iem you take to prison that won't get stolen.

[@ImAWSMDanny]

lmao, dang good way to put it

[@h1a8]

Great review. My Chopin stomps it. So much that I don't listen to the Quintet anymore. The stage of the Chopin feels about equal to the Quintet (not smaller). Better resolution, smoother, more satisfying bass, etc. I had to return the Chopin though😢 It doesn't fit my Fiio utws5. And the hype 4 is supposedly better. I decided to take a leap of faith and order the hype 4. Here's me hoping

[@ImAWSMDanny]

Oh dang. Curious to know what you think of the Hype 4.

[@h1a8]

@ImAWSMDanny I'll let you know as soon as I get it.

[@1fareast14]

I must have gooten a weird copy where only dd and piezo worked, because my experience was barely better than the chu

[@ImAWSMDanny]

Weird, that doesn't sound right

[@pelperson]

perhaps they need to try making a kiwi colored iem. call it the kiwi ears: fruit

[@ImAWSMDanny]

Real

[@87mixa]

This iem vs tancjim origin??

[@ImAWSMDanny]

I haven't had much time on the Origin yet. I plan to review it next week.

[@SCGOTO]

If the plastic is low density I question the long term durability.

[@ImAWSMDanny]

Yea same here but only time will tell.

[@TechieFelixLP]

It's sad to know that it costs $220 dollars and doesn't feel premium for Danny 😢 But the drivers that they put in is interesting tho. Thanks for the Video!

[@ImAWSMDanny]

Sounds great, doesn't tickle my fancy in looks sadly.

[@TechieFelixLP]

@@ImAWSMDanny Can I borrow them HAHA

[@ImAWSMDanny]

They're not mine. Already back with their owner.

[@TechieFelixLP]

@@ImAWSMDanny Noice

[@calvinyip364]

Please review the ea500LM

[@ImAWSMDanny]

I might actually get it soon. So stay tuned.

[@SunnyMcSunnerson]

😼

[@kenjikodai]

I would have bought the set already if it had unique faceplates like the forteza. I like my IEMs to scream and look like jewelry. Im hoping a set like this with bone conduction deivers too

[@ImAWSMDanny]

Yea I shop by aesthetics first. My top set all around is the Xenns Mangird Tea 2. I really enjoy the good sound and decent techs on it but that faceplate really seals the deal.
