Collaboration with HBB
Kiwi Ears partners with renowned audio reviewer HBB, known for his expert insights on IEMs, to create a bass-forward experience. The Punch, shaped by HBB’s sound preferences, is perfect for bass lovers seeking quality and depth.
HBB’s global reputation in audio expertise and his signature tuning style contribute to the Punch’s deep, resonant bass performance, tailored for enthusiasts who crave impactful, refined low-end sound.
Deepest Bass Yet
The Punch IEM is engineered for bass enthusiasts, delivering a powerful low-end impact with a 15dB subbass emphasis powered by a 10mm composite dynamic driver.
The 10mm composite dynamic driver brings an impressive 15dB subbass boost, providing robust, well-defined bass impact. This IEM emphasizes deep, immersive subbass frequencies, ensuring each note is rich and satisfying for listeners who prioritize depth and power in the low end.
Balanced Tuning
The Punch combines powerful bass with Kiwi Ears' signature tonal balance, providing natural, well-rounded sound suitable for on-stage monitoring.
True to Kiwi Ears’ dedication to tonal accuracy, the Punch is tuned for natural, balanced sound while delivering a powerful subbass response.
A precise cutoff between subbass and midrange keeps the midrange neutral and clear, making this IEM ideal for professional use, especially for drummers and bassists seeking clarity alongside impactful bass.
The treble is carefully contoured to offer a monitor-like response, mirroring the natural curve of human hearing for an authentic listening experience.
Extended Treble Range
Equipped with dual Sonion EST drivers, the Punch extends treble response to 40kHz, capturing fine details with a natural, well-rounded sound.
The treble is elevated with two imported Sonion electrostatic drivers per side, reaching frequencies up to 40kHz. This extended range enables the Punch to reproduce subtle, high-frequency details with precision while maintaining a natural, balanced tonality. The result is an IEM that excels across both the low and high ends, delivering a complete and immersive audio experience for discerning listeners.
Knowles Balanced Armature Drivers
Enhanced with the latest Knowles RAB 32257 drivers, the Punch offers a fuller, richer midrange, benefiting from open-vented ports for improved airflow.
The open-vented port design allows for enhanced airflow, enriching the sound with a fuller, more resonant quality that ensures vocals and instruments are rendered with exceptional depth and detail. This makes the Punch ideal for listeners seeking a balanced yet engaging midrange experience.
Precision Engineering
Designed with precision, the Punch features a sophisticated 3-way passive crossover network, where each driver type is routed through its own sound tube. This intricate design uses a combination of passive and acoustic crossover techniques, allowing for seamless integration across frequencies. The result is a well-coordinated, cohesive sound that brings out the best in each driver for an immersive listening experience.
Customizable Cable
Equipped with a premium 2-pin (0.78mm) connector cable, the Punch allows for easy customization, enabling users to switch out cables to suit their preferences. This design not only enhances durability but also provides flexibility for audiophiles who enjoy tailoring their audio setup. The cable’s robust construction ensures lasting performance, making it an ideal companion for long-term use.
