Enjoy the Orchestra
The Orchestra Lite maintains the same custom Kiwi Ears' 8-balanced armature driver configuration as its predecessor. These drivers consist of two ultra-tweeters for the treble, four midrange balanced armature drivers for the mids and two large subwoofer drivers for the lows.The Crossover You’ll Love
The Kiwi Ears Orchestra Lite offers a natural and balanced tonal signature like its predecessor while still performing at a studio monitor level for professional musicians and audio engineers. It uses a three-way passive crossover strategy and 5 independent passive components to achieve intricate layering and reduce harmonic distortion. The bass is restricted to sub-bass frequencies, while the mids are neutral with a slight hint of warmth. The treble is perfectly matched to allow every detail to be heard comfortably.Handmade for a Spectacular Performance
To ensure the best performance for the entire lifespan of the IEM, each Kiwi Ears unit undergoes two rounds of quality control inspection by engineers, including frequency matching for both, the left and right channels. Each unit is handcrafted with care and attention to detail by a team of engineers.Classy Cable
Expect enhanced audio quality with the premium 4-core 7N oxygen-free copper cable. It’s designed to be light and comfortable for use on stage or while on the go. It is equipped with a removable 2-pin connection for easy cable-swapping and a 3.5mm plug that is compatible with modern electronic devices.About Kiwi Ears

Kiwi Ears' pursuit of perfection means that you can worry less about what's in your ears and focus more on the sounds you are making.
It's my first big step forward into the world of IEM, I'm really happy with my purchase it is just as I expected it to be but somewhere I have this problem as I work for 9 hours and have stay active on zoom meetings if you'll wear these for longer time due to pressure in years it can be uncomfortable so good for 1-2 hour usage it can be me only as my years are quite out due to my medical history so people with moderate use won't have to worry much.
Thank you for your review! We're glad to hear that you are enjoying your Kiwi Ears Orchestra Lite IEM.

We hope this helps and thank you for choosing our The Audio Store!
Though it is fairly easy to drive with any dongle dac like link 2 bal or M15 but it really transforms itself into different beast altogether when connected to something like hip dac or xduoo 5+
Sound signature is neutral with less of sub bass more of mid bass boost. Bass is not lacking in any way (as mentioned in few online reviews) but little bit sub bass extension could have given this iem little extra flavour. Good speed and very good details like a capable DD. I did not feel any ba timbre.
Treble is extremely smooth, musical, rounded and easy for long listening. No harshness no sibilance is noticed.
Vocals sound crystal clear, forward and full bodied with 3D effect, feels like sound coming from all around your head. Midrange is where O lite shines most.
Imaging is amazingly good in these iem. Very easy to pin point each instruments with precise accuracy. Instrument separation too very good for the price, no complaints whatsoever.
Detail retrieval is another area where the tuners of this iem have done commendable job. Full marks to them.
Soundstage is where this iem lacks a bit if I nitpick. Could have better space between you and the singer/instruments. Lacks little air. SS is kinda narrow but again since I prefer narrow stage (not too narrow or congested) to enjoy my vocals, here too I don't have any complaints.
But the real disappointment comes from its lackluster accessories. With the price point of $250 they could have provided a modular cable or an option of 4.4mm at least. Ear tips are trash. Carry case is too small to use.
Last but worth mentioning. Don't listen to this iem empty stomach otherwise you will eat up whole iem since it gives a feel of green candy in your hand. Shells are extremely extremely gorgeous to look at.
Cons
Big Shell, single ended cable, poor accessories, lacks sub bass extension, treble may feel too smooth sometimes to someone.
Thanks
Thanks for the feedback! We're glad you're enjoying the Kiwi Ears Orchestra Lite IEM!
Great iem for all music genres. Male and female vocals sound excellent, but it shines with orchestral music, anime, and movie soundtracks. The gaming experience is fantastic due to the fantastic imaging, layering, and depth. I can pinpoint enemies in Apex Legends, CSGO, and Valorant. It can take EQ very well in all frequency ranges except sub bass. Due to being an all-BA, the sub bass lacks the powerful rumble. Overall, it is a highly detailed and high-resolution IEM that is suitable for competitive gaming and nearly all music genres (The absence of rumbly sub bass makes it an okay choice for rap and EDM music).
Thank you for your review of the Kiwi Ears Orchestra Lite IEM! We are thrilled to hear that you enjoy these earphones and find them suitable for all music genres. The resolution and detail are fantastic, and we are glad to see that you appreciate the gaming experience as well. The lack of rumbly sub bass is unfortunate, but we understand that this may not be an issue for some people. Thanks for taking the time to write this review and we hope that you continue to enjoy your Kiwi Ears Orchestra Lite IEM!
They lean on the warm side, which makes them very easy to listen to for extended periods of time. Bass is also great for a BA set.
Thanks for the review! We're glad you enjoyed the Kiwi Ears Orchestra Lite IEM. They sound warm and easy to listen to, and the bass is great for a BA set.
Was not sure how the BA bass will sound as I had never experienced all BA sound signature. Pritam was of great help here as he answered all my queries about the BA drivers. I was pleasantly surprised by the bass which is just perfect and the details are also clear. Soundstages is not that wide but the instrument separation is superb.
Thanks Pritam for a great recommendation as it was him who asked me to wait for the release of this iem.
Thank you for the review! We're glad you're enjoying the Kiwi Ears Orchestra Lite IEM. We're happy to have helped you choose the right earphones.

OUR HONEST REVIEWS FROM THE CO-FOUNDERS & AUDIOPHILES
View allTRUSTED BY OVER 25K+ MUSIC ENTHUSIAST
Let customers speak for us
from 3758 reviewsI personally would recommend these for anyone who wants a balanced a sound with thumping base it’s simply awesome
These are the best ear tips that I've ever experienced! I've bought the ML size, and they fit perfectly in the conchas of my ears. The velvety smooth finish of the tips is sublime to the touch and feels super soft when put inside the ears.
The sound impression of these tips caught me unawares! They startled me! This is the first time I felt that a pair of excellent ear tips can make an IEM sound better. Much better, in fact. It makes the sound holographic and well-rounded; both the width and the height increase significantly; I had to turn the volume a couple of notches down in every music source I use: DAP, desktop, laptop, mobile phone, or tab with a DAC, etc. Most of the IEMs I used with these ear tips sounded superb in low volumes. They didn't distort sound on high volumes as well.
I used them with FiiO FD5, Final Audio A5000, Meze Alba, Dunu Titan S, Shure Aonic 215, and Pixel Buds. (In the case of the Pixel Buds, I could not close the case after putting these on; so I guess a smaller size is needed.) It's too bad I couldn't use them with Westone Audio Mach30 because of improper fit.
Versus the Dunu S&S: The Dunu S&S has similar characteristics. But the Velvet has a much more impactful sound. It has a thicker note weight that enhances the natural timbre of both male and female vocals and most instruments. The Velvet also has a much bigger soundstage than that created by the S&S. Contrarily, the S&S has more accurate imaging than the Velvet.
Versus the Symbio W (Silicone with foam inside): The Symbio W makes sound more intimate than the Velvet. It has a smaller soundstage than the Velvet and hence it is less holographic than Velvet. But it is more transparent than Velvet with light note weight; so I prefer to listen to singers like Tracy Chapman or P!nk with these ear tips on.
I must say that the shape of the Velvet ear tips is exquisite! Add to that the perfect choice of materials and finish and you have a winning combination. (Please see the pictures of the top and bottom of the three ear tips in the photo I've uploaded.) At almost INR500 a pair, these are the best ear tips among all the ear tips that I've ever tested! I'll surely get more of them in the future. I highly recommend them to everyone!
I carry the following items in my office bag.
1. Fiio BTR7
2. Fiio BTR7‘s type-C to type-C cable
3. Fiio BTR7‘s type-C to lightning cable
4. A 4.4mm (F) to 3.5mm (M) converter
5. Hifiman RE400
6. Type-C to 3.5mm dongle
7. Lightning to 3.5mm dongle
See the attached pictures. Earlier, I used to carry these 7 items in 2 separate cases. With this case coming in at just Rs. 250/-, I have now perfectly fit all these 7 items into one case. It’s made my life easier as i no longer have to carry and pack-unpack two separate cases each time.
I also love the fact that this case fits the Fiio BTR7 like a glove.
For me, this case has the perfect length, breadth, and more importantly width.
The case’s in-hand feel is also very good and it’s zip is super smooth.
200% recommended.
The earphones obviously are great and I just hoped to get original product as I’m ordering for first time in audio store. And the product quality is super and packaging also protects damage, I like it, I would shop at audio store to get any top branded quality product
Exactly what I was looking for my iPhone 13 Mini.
Official Apple dongle works but too thin cabled tangly one.
This one is far better form-factor & music quality wise!
About The Audio Store
==================
I made 2 purchases so far. Order to delivery experiences have been so smooth, fast and efficient.
Keep up the excellent performance guys!
I bought Audio Ehhiku before AP5 and my only question to Pritam/TAS was, is there another set that can match or beat Ehhiku's sonic brilliance. Pritam recommended AP5 as a worthy side grade to Ehhiku. And AP5's lush, relaxed and premium tonality totally justifies this set's claim as one of the best bargain from a price to performance ratio in the 20 k price point. After significant burn-in, AP5 shines like a Diamond in the sky. Thanks Pritam and TAS for recommending this set. Cheers!!
I loved this cable. This was the best one available in the least price. The cable quality is supreme and order arrived on time as well.
This is my first order from the audiostore and my trust went up.
I've always enjoyed the hallmark ESS sound - resolution and instrument separation - and own a number of portable as well as desktop DACs based on various ESS chips. The RAW MDA-1 maintains that tradition but has even better imaging and soundstage IMHO. True, the sound signature of a DAC does not depend on the chip alone; the output stage design also plays a big part - and SMSL's expertise is evident here, just like in their AKM-based offerings like the Sanskrit MKII or more recently - the SU-1. Of the many albums that I used for initial impressions - want to specifically mention one - Dave Brubeck Live With The LSO. I was able to make out even the more recessed instruments and the sound was distinctly holographic - I could pinpoint location of instruments and the soundstage depth was amazing! Extremely happy with the purchase and thanks to TAS for bringing this to India so soon!
I must recommend this DAC to any alternatives out there with 3.5mm Connector.
Reason: This is very underrated DAC , it has USB audio Class 2.0, who are using UAPP ( Usb audio player pro) they will benefit from this and knows how the sound quality differs from 1.0. And only the DAC with 70mW output power this is huge in this price range. What else need more than this ? Just go for it.
Well-made versatile (balanced, single ended termination) IEM cable. In picture it may look stiff due to nylon sheathing, but in reality it is very soft and flexible cable. DUNU craftmanship on this cable is commendable.
Great iems , recommended for gaming and heavy bass music ....
For the price at these iem are you in for a party in your head. Better to use them with a DAC as more power they get the better they sound. Sound quality is👌, better than normal earphones. Great for bass heads. Also thanks to the audio store for such quick order processing , got me iems in 1 day and gift wrap (which i did not ask for or expect) kudos to them 👏!
I've been using this eartips for quite sometime now and I've been using this with the OPPO Enco X2 and I really love the fit and comfort this offers.
Plz send update the software for earbuds & more EQ mode
I am using it to connect my 4.4 mm ended cable of my IEM to my Bluetooth dac. Sound is good.
