Youtube Video Summary

Kiwi Ears Orchestra brings an 8-BA, $500 package with surprisingly refined hardware: a tastefully thick, well-behaved copper cable, secure two-pin connection, and a compact shell that fits exceptionally well. The build feels familiar to Thieaudio molds, with understated charcoal faceplates and a quirky glow-in-the-dark blue trick under UV. Stock tips are grippy and practical, the case is decent, and overall ergonomics make long sessions easy. It’s a clean, understated aesthetic that prioritizes comfort and daily usability.

Sonically, Orchestra goes for a warm, laid-back neutral with a full lower midrange and relaxed upper mids—great for anyone allergic to shout. Micro-contrast is a standout: midrange texture and small details pop, while treble reaches well into 10–15 kHz with a touch of mid-treble bite that can reveal sibilance. The weakness is the BA bass: controlled but light in body and sub-bass weight, so depth and stage feel modest despite tidy imaging. Versus Dunu SA6, the SA6 adds more sub-bass presence and slightly smoother treble (a shade more “V” by comparison), while Orchestra counters with richer lower mids and a more relaxed vocal presentation—preference hinges on mood and library. Taken together: a solid four-star all-BA set that’s competitive on detail, comfort, and tuning nuance, especially for listeners who favor midrange focus over slam.

Comment: Extremely balanced sound, my go-to for vocal tracks. Mid-focused, minimal BA timbre, vocals intimate and forward Low end is not the most dynamic, bass layering can be difficult to pick out

Great vocals. Clean and neutral signature. A bit vanilla and "boring" but scales great with volume.

The MYER-AUDIO SLIIVO SLT6 is a pure 6BA design using branded Sonion and Knowles armatures, with two dip-switches that enable four tuning combinations. Published specs list 50–65 Ω impedance and 113–116 dB sensitivity, and the list price sits around $450 (commonly discounted via retailers).

Community impressions describe a neutral baseline with an optional bass lift via the switches, which primarily increase low-end gain while keeping mids relatively clean. Reports consistently highlight a wide soundstage, clean separation, and solid imaging performance for the price tier.

As an all-BA set, macro-dynamics and bass texture don’t match the physicality of strong dynamic-driver hybrids; however, the SLT6 trades that for fast transients, high detail retrieval, and well-defined imaging—traits that several reviewers point out, alongside notably resolving treble. Build and ergonomics are solid (stabilized-wood faceplates, resin shells), and the switch system adds genuine flexibility, though listeners seeking DD-like slam may find the low end more controlled than visceral.
