Kiwi Ears Orchestra Lite Performance Custom 8BA in-Ear Monitor IEM with Detachable 4-core 7N Oxygen-Free Copper OFC Cable, Handcrafts Faceplate for Audiophile Studio Musician (Purple)

The Orchestra Lites gave me nearly the same feels as the 1st time I put Focal Clears on my head after a borderline psychotic rabbit hole dive that had me buying every set of hyped cans from SHP9500, X2HR, HD58X, Sundara, AD700, AD700X, AD900X, K701, K702, DT990, DT900X, HD560S, to R70x (still my fav for FPS gaming) & more, including some IEMs, such as KZ ZSN, 1MORE Triple, VR3000, Crin Zero, IE200... I liked the Zero's enough to hang on to them at $50, but wasn't impressed with the soundstage and thus disappointed for gaming, as with any IEM before it. I had given up on gaming with IEMs until Fresh Reviews waxed poetic about the Kiwi O Lite. And I can't thank him enough! The Orchestra Lites are blowing me away with their incredibly big stage (for an IEM) and imaging, as well as detailed, clean, natural sound. They are nearly Clear Lites! One test I like to use is Lithium by Evanescence (Synthesis album version) starting at 2:45 where Amy Lee's voice is extra emotional and goes high up into her prodigious register... Many cans & buds can't handle this passage, making her sound pitchy and distorted. Only two of the dozens of 'phones I've heard has done Amy Lee justice: Focal Clear and Kiwi Ears Orchestra Lite. One of my favorite soundstage tests is Crossing by Yosi Horikawa... With the O Lites, the passing moped in the very beginning appears off in the distance to your left, drives right through your head, and fades INCREDIBLY far beyond your right shoulder. Most IEMs and even many cans place this mostly inside your head, perhaps out to your shoulders. Meanwhile the O Lites do a wonderful job of placing you right in that environment. Not surprising wide open cans like Clear & R70x can do that. Stunning when an IEM does it. Another test I enjoy is Chocolate Chip Trip by Tool. Again Kiwi O Lites do an amazing job of circling the bells, percussion, and then synth around and around your head OUTSIDE your ears. And though I'm no bass-head and the Lites are technically a tad light in bass (sub bass really) when Daniel Carey starts hitting the double bass drum around 3 minutes in, it's clean and accurate with PLENTY of slam. Every popular test track, from Thriller, Nil Lofgren's Live performance of Keith Don't Go, Hotel California Live, The Holy Men, Sentenza Del Cuoro, Bubbles by Horikawa, Good Morning Little Schoolgirl, Limehouse Blues, Mombasa, etc. sounds excellent on the O Lites and checks every box, be it stage, imaging, bass, midrange, treble, dynamic range, detail, etc. I like to sprinkle "Binaural Recording (Test Only)" by myNoise in a few random places on my list just to see if the door knocks startle me or even make me 2nd guess if someone is really at the door... The O Lites get me EVERY time. You swear someone is actually knocking at the door because the sound comes from the walls of your room. No other IEM has done this for me before. I do like the Crin Zeros for overall sound quality, esp for $50, but they can't put sound outside my head like O Lites somehow can. I should mention that initially I had a problem with the supplied gray tips, getting horribly weak bass (I may have not installed them properly over the large O-Lite nozzles) but found the stock white tips to be comfortable and sound great. However based on many suggestions online to upgrade Kiwi's tips, I tried SpinFit W1 and the uniquely shaped Dunu S&S tips (which fortunately fit my ear canals very well.) My choice is easily the S&S which open up the soundstage even wider, as well as improve bass over both the stock & W1 tips. Now for gaming, I honestly still do prefer open backs, especially the R70x. But honestly this is partly because I don't like my voice coming from inside my head, even with mic monitoring and partly so I can hear my girlfriend when she asks me a question while gaming... But these are the first IEMs I've ever been impressed with for either situational awareness in a shooter or immersion in an RPG. I bounce back & forth between these & the R70x when solo in multiplayer COD... The R70x clearly has the bigger stage and a better sense of distance and verticality. The O Lites give you slightly better "tinglers" when footsteps are near or gunfire is in the distance. However both are excellent overall. The O Lites have the advantage of being able to plug directly into your controller and still being able to get loud enough for anyone plus with no loss in dynamics. Meanwhile the 470Ω impedance R70x's will need a good amp to fully open up its massive soundstage potential as well as get loud enough for most tastes. Lately I've been playing God of War: Ragnarök quite a lot. Plugging directly into PS5 controller, I go with either Focal Clear or the O Lites. Both sound beautiful & convincingly place me in the environment along with PS5's superb 3D Audio. It's hard to pick a favorite here, which is a huge testament to $250 O Lites being comparable to near kilobuck (& originally $1500) Focal Clears! Just as the Clears finally put a stop to my headphone rabbit hole insanity, I feel the Kiwi Ears Orchestra Lite is the easy and logical stopping point for IEMs (at least for anyone who cashes a paycheck and doesn't have a trust fund.) As obsessive as I can be chasing something better, I can hardly imagine what little diminishing returns that are left being be worth another $100, let alone $1000 or more. Sorry Jeff, I'm done buying IEMs. Found my endgame at last!

If you are looking for a pair of items that sound natural with a good mix of all the frequencies you can't go wrong with this iem. The bass is pretty good, even if it's not the focus of this set, could be stronger but when it is needed it sounds good and strong enough. It's some of the most natural sounding bass I've heard. Vocals are what this set excels at, especially watching YouTube and listening to podcasts or YouTube figures talking in general. In songs and movies they sound very natural and correct, it can even sound like they are talking to you in person If the recording is good enough. Treble is also very tasteful but I'd say that's where these are not the main focus of, it has very nice and realistic sounding treble for cymbals and all that, but would probably disappoint a treble head, but I personally love it, it comes out when needed and doesn't overstay it's welcome bascially. These shine a lot more on a proper dac/amp using these straight through my laptop 3.5 plug they sound good, but are noticably less detailed and the bass is worse, so test these on an dac/amp not just though a weak laptop plugin, they like some power to really impress. I'd say the one major flaw these has is the comfort, they are not vented and if you are not careful they will create a painful suction to the inside of your ear, the stock tips are honestly the best when it comes to not doing this, but that's cause they take practice to get a decent seal. But they sound good with a good seal and I'd they don't create too much suction I'm your ear. Don't let people tell you "oh different tips will fix them" they don't usually it's the opposite they create more suction and would be extremely painful, so stay with stock tips or be careful with your tip rolling. Other than that these are some of the best you can buy, and worth it even with the comfort issue (just be careful with putting them in and out of your ears)

ماتوقعتها ابد تعطي الدقه خاص بالالعاب تحتاج كرت صوت خارجي مثل Solo ولا Motu M2 اذا تبي الدقه عاليه جدا ويمكن البعض مايحتاج الكرت الصوت ملاحظة: داخل اللعبه عدل الصوت يعني اعمل توازن نزل الصوت وخله على المعدل اللي تبيه لان الصوت عالي استغفرالله العظيم

Very difficult to write a subjective review as not only are all ears different but our choice of sound also greatly different. I can write that these IEM's are superbly made and fit MY ears very well indeed. Likewise I also enjoy the sound production. Of course all subjective. I highly recommend them.

Perfect headphones for gaming. Need to buy External DAC (Allegro mini) to reduce noise.

Great quality sound, very detailed sound.
