Kiwi Ears Orchestra II: Ditching my dynamics for an ALL-BA IEM?

In this video, I review the $349 Kiwi Ears Orchestra II. I cover sound, design, compare it to the $299 Kiwi Ears Astral, and talk about the differences between balanced armature and dynamic drivers. As a classically trained musician, I found the Kiwi Ears Orchestra II to be VERY impressive: clear, crisp, responsive sound, tight and well-controlled bass, and great technicals. But there's one thing that keeps me from recommending these to everyone. ORCHESTRA II PRODUCTS LINKS Product Page - https://kiwiears.com/products/kiwi-ea...
