Moondrop KATO in-ear earphones Matte Steel

SKU CH-NN7Q-Z9954

In-ear monitors with a 10 mm ULT dynamic driver and third-generation DLC composite diaphragm for accurate sound reproduction

  • TypeHeadphone
  • Accurate sound reproduction with rare frequency response precision
  • 10 mm ULT dynamic driver for linear performance
  • Third-generation DLC composite diaphragm reduces distortion
  • Stainless steel MIM housing with light-and-shadow design
  • Four interchangeable nozzles plus 0.78 mm 2-pin connector

What the product is and who it is for

Moondrop KATO in-ear earphones use a 10mm ULT dynamic driver with a third-generation DLC composite diaphragm to deliver a frequency response of 10Hz-45kHz. The 32Ohm impedance and 123dB sensitivity allow them to be driven directly from portable sources without extra amplification. The matte steel housing is produced by MIM stainless steel for a precise, durable finish.

What to check on your existing setup before ordering

Your source must provide a 3.5mm stereo single-ended output to match the supplied cable plug. The earphones use a 0.78 2-pin sunken connector, so any replacement cable must share that exact pin spacing and depth. Verify that your device can supply adequate voltage for 32Ohm loads if you plan to listen at higher volumes.

What the bundled accessories

Two stainless steel and two brass nozzles are included; swapping them alters the acoustic tuning and treble presentation without tools. The sunken 0.78 2-pin socket secures the cable more firmly than standard recessed designs, reducing accidental disconnects during movement. No software or digital processing is bundled; all sound changes come from the physical nozzle selection.

Questions about this item

Which cables and ear-tip nozzles come with the KATO and what must I buy separately?

The package includes four stainless-steel nozzles and four brass nozzles plus a 3.5 mm stereo single-ended cable. No other cables or tips are mentioned.

Should I choose the 10 mm ULT driver with the 3rd-generation DLC composite diaphragm or another variant?

Only one driver configuration is listed: a 10 mm ULT dynamic driver paired with the 3rd-generation DLC composite diaphragm.

What does the 123 dB sensitivity at 1 kHz mean for everyday listening volume?

At 1 kHz the earphones produce 123 dB per N rms, so they reach loud levels easily from portable sources without extra amplification.
