Image
“Simplicity is an acquired taste. Mankind, left free, instinctively complicates life.” --Katharine Fullerton Gerould, American writer and essayist. Oi! Welcome to my another IEM review item and what I have here right now is another ultra-budget IEM from  CVJ . No need to do  another introduction about this company as I already did a fair amount of their products. You can check out my other dossier of  CVJ  products at link below: ■ CVJ CS8 ■ CVJ CSN ■ CVJ MIRROR ■ CVJ CSK ■ CVJ CSE ■ CVJ SHINE ■ CVJ MEI ■ CVJ TXS This is  CVJ KS-E,  it's a very cheap IEM set with single dynamic driver as its only transducer on which  CVJ  claims that its a newer type of dynamic driver technology.

This is my second product review for  Kiwi Ears , I did a review on their first entry level one, the  Cadenza . It seems that  Kiwi Ears  naming conventions are based on orchestral and musical ensembles. This is  Kiwi Ears Quartet , This is  Kiwi   Ears  latest offering on their entry-level segment.

The balanced armature drivers (probably a newer generation of Bellsing) gives cleaner, de...
