Linsoul has done it and shipped my Quintet.

This will be my official desktop IEM that is fully eq'd to my fav tuning. If the treble is gonna sound right this will be it.

Mine is on it's way too... Took over a week to ship, I'm not used to waiting. LOL.

So if the nozzle is wide to some, how wide is that? Normal width is usually 4.5 to 5.5 mm. From pictures of the IEM in people's ears and fingers, I'd think the body is around 20 to 25 mm long. How long is the nozzle? SuperReviews said its fit was pretty deep.

Don’t worry about the nozzle size, the Quintet fits great.

I found that I have to use tips at least a size smaller than on other IEMs in order to fit the beefier Quintet nozzles in my ears.

I don't think I had any issues with the longer nozzles of the Quintet, but the shell shape was an issue for me. I have smaller ears so likely the reason, but just a warning to others with similar anatomy.

I love the sound signature but I just couldn't get past the fit. My experience is still a bit limited but probably one of my few 'wow' moments with an IEM.

In the house and in the garden. Great so far, but I need more time. Clean, crisp and technical which is what I wanted.

Mine came in today. Anyone want any comparisons (especially for particular tracks)?

I think they're better than the S12, which is very high praise for me. They sound, to me, kinda like the Letshuoer Galileo but with less treble roll-off and more resolution. In other words - amazing. I know - new gear always sounds the best.

My current IEM library:
Etymotic - ER3SE, ER4XR, EVO
KZ - AS16Pro, PR2 (with correct driver damping), CRN, DQ6, CRA+
Thieaudio - Monarch Mk1
Truthear - Hexa, Zero
Mangird - Tea Mk1
Tripowin - Olina (original), Mele, Lea
Letshuoer - S12, Galileo
BLON - BL03, Z300
7hz - Dioko, Zero
Thor - Mjolner Mk1
Simgot - EA500
UE - Triple.fi10
Moondrop - Starfield, Chu, Lan (why aren't these more hyped???)

Plus some other stuff that I don't think is all that relevant because of weird tuning (Kinera Celest, for example).

Got my Quintet in yesterday. It's simply amazing at the $200-$220 price point. They could've sold this IEM at $400 and it'd be worth it imo.

I agree with this short and sweet review:

I agree Kiwi ears could have sold these for way more $ and got away with it.

Cheers! Glad you like them!

But people say its lacking in bass, is that your opinion too?

Definitely not lacking bass to my ears. People who say that might not have it properly sealed or they're not driving it properly. The Quintet rumbles and slams. Not the most bassy IEM and not a basshead IEM, but it doesn't lack in bass quality nor quantity.

I'm using SpinFit CP145 medium tips with the Quintet btw.

+1. The bass (especially sub-bass) is just about perfect.

Nice I use the large CP 145 with mine. It is a solid af choice, that is just nice. I am enjoying it.

Jealous. My Quintet is taking a very long time to get here. Stranded at the Oakland processing center for a week so far.
