After deep research of over two years, Moondrop has developed a brand new ULT(Ultra Linear Technology) Super Linear Dynamic Driver for its latest IEM. Moondrop Kato is launched officially today featuring a 10mm ULT dynamic driver unit that utilizes a DLC composite diaphragm coil. Enjoy your music with great precision, accuracy, and clarity with the Moondrop Kato!!
Self Developed Ultra-Linear Dynamic Driver Unit:-
Moondrop has designed a new 10mm ULT super linear dynamic driver unit that features a DLC composite diaphragm coil. The driver features a composite magnetic circuit that creates a powerful magnetic force inside the cavity allowing for swift movement of the driver coil. It also has a larger brass cavity, an imported CCAW coil, and a high-frequency waveguide system to provide nothing else but exceptional sound.
3rd Generation DLC Composite Diaphragm:-
Moondrop has featured a 3rd generation DLC(Diamond-Like Carbon) composite diaphragm coil in the latest Kato IEMs. This diaphragm is made up of three different materials with different characteristics including DLC. DLC provides it high-rigidity, high damping coefficient. It is lightweight and sturdy. It provides great clarity in sound with lower distortion and a clean background.
Professionally Designed Front Cavity:-
Moondrop has designed Kato earpieces with the help of volume and structure simulation by Finite Element Analysis Simulation. Combined with high-frequency phase guide components on the driver, the front cavity arrangement in Kato is superior to other so-called special tuning components.
Replaceable Ear Sound Nozzle:-
Moondrop has designed Kato with a replaceable ear nozzle design. They have included two sets of sound nozzles in the package, made with different materials(Steel & Brass). Both the Steel and Brass provide different characteristics to the sound, users can switch between them easily.
Self-Developed Patented Acoustic Filter In Nozzle:-
Moondrop Kato has a brand-new third-generation patented anti-blocking filter integrated on the ear nozzle. It prevents oily ear wax from blocking the filters and is more conducive to mid and high-frequency sound.
Newly Developed Spring Silicone Ear Tips:-
Moondrop has designed new spring silicone ear tips that suppress weak resonance through a special diffusion structure. It also helps in lowering high-frequency linear distortion caused by nozzle resonance making the output more natural and pleasing. These new ear tips also help in providing a better fit for its users.

-
What does the Spring tips do?
It prevents nozzle resonance and improves the treble timber.
-

No
-
Is it good for bass-heavy tracks?
Yes, the bass goes deep and punches hard.
-
What is the cable termination on the IEM side?
0.78mm 2 pin

I bought Moondrop Kato. The attached cable also lets you listen to good music, The DAP I have is 4.4mm balanced output Upgrade to 4.4 mm cable with balance jack please tell me.
For the Kato, you should get the Moondrop Special K Line cable. It is available in 4.4mm termination.
-
is there going to be more matte version of Moondrop Kato in stock again?
Hi, Thank you for asking.
The matte version is very hard to produce even more than mirror version, this is beyond of brand expectation, and there are still pre-orders waiting in line also. So it will take really some time to start the order for the matte version again.
