Kiwi Ears Airoso

The Kiwi Ears Airoso is a five driver hybrid built to be the sensible all rounder of the range: one dynamic driver for the lows, four balanced armatures for the highs, and a tuning that balances fun with refinement.

Type and Technology

The custom dynamic driver uses an LCP and PU composite diaphragm that keeps distortion consistent across listening volumes. Two high frequency and two ultra high frequency balanced armatures take over up top, and a combined physical plus RC crossover splices the ranges smoothly.

Sound Character

Kiwi Ears tunes the Airoso for deep, well controlled bass and crystal clear highs. The overall balance is mildly warm with an airy top end, an easygoing signature that flatters most genres while keeping detail front and center.

Build and Comfort

A CNC machined aluminum alloy and titanium faceplate caps a precision 3D printed resin shell for a premium, durable feel. The 1.2m cable detaches at 0.78mm 2-pin connectors and terminates in 3.5mm, and at 18 ohms and 110dB sensitivity the Airoso is undemanding of sources.
