Featuring revolutionary triple dynamic drivers (an 8mm dynamic driver and two 6mm dynamic drivers) and custom-engineered tuning, the ACTIVO Volcano has been carefully crafted to deliver deep, thrilling sound that enhances every music experience.

At the heart of the Volcano’s performance is an internal port system, optimized to ensure a natural, balanced sound across all frequency ranges. The port’s unique tapered structure allows sound from each frequency to flow seamlessly, providing a smooth and immersive listening experience.

An ergonomically designed, crater-inspired housing contains the raw power of the triple dynamic drivers while ensuring a stable and comfortable fit. Crafted from durable yet lightweight PC material, the IEMs offer portability without sacrificing performance, making them perfect for music lovers on the go.

The IEMs include multiple connector options, with 3.5mm, 4.4mm, and USB-C terminations, for a wide range of devices.

With enhanced ear wingtips for premium comfort, users can enjoy extended listening sessions without discomfort. Additionally, the package includes silicone ear tips (L, M, S) and memory foam ear tips (L, M, S) for finding your optimum fit.

For a rich, layered sound profile that immerses listeners in vibrant audio, ACTIVO Volcano brings out the deepest lows and clearest highs, revealing more with every listening experience. The IEMs are also the perfect companion for the recently launched ACTIVO P1 personal music player.

Unfortunately, with the tariff situation here in the US, currently there is no timeframe on when/if these will be offered for sale in the US. As the tariff situation is changing daily, we are continuing to monitor and may offer them in the future.

Your prompt response and insight is appreciated.

In the interest of keeping things positive on this hobbyist, forum, hopefully that means we have something to look forward to in the future.
