Interesting. Does the kato compete with starfield?

I think compared to the KXXS.

Info on the k-line cable? @MOONDROP @shenzhenaudio

Looks interesting. I might pull the trigger on this, but I'm really intersted to know more about this "Line K" cable. What is it? What's upgraded about it? Material Structure, etc?
Your product description of the KATO is comprehensive but where can we learn about this cable?@MOONDROP ?

It's silver-plating cable, yep, one of the upgraded cables.

A silver-plating upgraded cable.

@shenzhenaudio is that all the info about the k-line cable?

 

[AmericanSpirit]

Looks stunning. Could you tell us more about the tuning and the different sound profiles?

I noticed Shenzhen audio’s product description is very informative:

I'm so happy that Moondrop finally fixed the nozzle design on the KATO.

The KXXS, Starfield, Aria, SSR and SSP all have a smooth nozzle design that unfortunately has been a total deal-breaker for me.

I once owned the KXXS and whenever I would remove them from my ears, half of the time, the eartips would slip right off of the smooth nozzles and stay in my ears! Not fun.

Since the KATO's removable nozzles have a more conventional knurled flange, I'll definitely be picking up a pair!

That's a nice looking IEM.

 

[SoundJedi]

Very! Why do they keep doing this to us

 

[shenzhenaudio]

@shenzhenaudio is that all the info about the k-line cable?

It's all I know currently.

THIS !!
One of the most overlooked things on the KXXS shell type.

[Lespectraal]

Removable nozzles ftw

Never owned a moondrop product. Might pull the trigger. How is their DD tuning for metal and other fast genres? I'm looking at this or the 7hz timeless, and bqeyz summer.
