Dynamic In-Ear Monitor IEM ULT 32 Ohm 123dB 10Hz-45kHz Matte Steel
With KATO in-ear monitors, Moondrop has optimized the structure and volume of the ULT dynamic driver and acoustic chamber to achieve outstanding linear distortion performance. These IEMs have excellent amplitude-frequency and phase-frequency response, resulting in better timbre and soundstage reproduction.
The brand has also worked on a new silicone tip, improving comfort and preventing sound leaks and resonances, promoting a nice linearity of high frequencies for a more natural timbre.
The KATO is also a model of design, presenting a sublime modern aesthetic, with a robust stainless steel body.
The Moondrop KATO features an all-new 10mm ULT (Ultra Linear Technology) dynamic driver. This incorporates a more efficient composite magnetic circuit with internal and external magnets as well as an optimized airflow structure, a larger brass acoustic cavity, an extra-fine CCAW coil and a high-frequency phase waveguide. As a result, the KATO earphones exhibit excellent dynamics and reveal many details.
The KATO ULT driver is also equipped with a high-performance DLC composite diaphragm, using three materials with different characteristics. The DLC material offers high stiffness, a high damping coefficient and light weight. Its overall acoustic performance exceeds even that of beryllium. The all-new 3rd generation diaphragm also offers at least an 80% reduction in non-linear distortion compared to the previous generation.
The KATO front acoustic chamber is designed based on the characteristics of the loudspeaker, using accurate acoustic simulation. The design provides excellent frequency response and high-frequency phase performance, which is a material guarantee of excellent sound balance.
These KATO earphones have an interchangeable sound tube, thanks to the inclusion of a thread for easy replacement. They also come with two pairs of tubes, one made of stainless steel, the other of brass. These tubes also include a new patented anti-blocking filter, which prevents clogging in the tube.
The KATOs are equipped with new spring-loaded eartips, designed and developed by the brand and eliminating weak resonances thanks to a studied diffusion structure. This significantly reduces the linear distortion of high frequencies caused by earmold resonance. In addition, they also fit better in the ear canal, avoiding low frequency leakage and offering a better wearing comfort.
The Moondrop KATO comes with a cable that uses silver-plated copper braided conductors, ensuring excellent conductivity. The structure of the cable reduces the skin effect and proximity effect, thus playing a real role against interference. The cable is also detachable, as the headphones have standard 0.78mm 2-pin connectors, and can therefore be easily replaced if necessary.
