【Voltage Compatibility】
When using electrical appliances, please note that they are designed for Japanese voltage specifications (90-110V), so if you use them with a different voltage, it may cause a malfunction.
【Plug Type】
Our products use Japanese plug types (A or B type).
Please use a conversion adapter if necessary.
【Important Note on Transformers and Adapters】
A transformer adjusts voltage to match your device’s requirements.
A conversion adapter only changes the plug shape and does not adjust voltage.
Using only a conversion adapter without a transformer may result in damage to the product.
【Liability】
We are not responsible for malfunctions or damages caused by improper use, such as operating the product without a transformer.
New generation flagship 10mm dynamic driver. KATO, equipped with a new ULT (Ultra-Linear-Technology) superlinear dynamic driver, was born after more than two years of repeated development with the goal of significantly improving the linear dynamic range and achieving nonlinear distortion in all frequency bands comparable to electrostatic headphones. It delivers stronger dynamics, lower distortion, restored timbre, open hearing and richer yet natural detail.
The housing is cast using the MIM method (metal injection molding method), which allows for high strength and an irregular appearance. The inner surface is a fine and irregular surface, which has a positive effect on suppressing standing waves. By repeating manual polishing, the entire surface has been made as smooth as a mirror.
Equipped with a newly designed high-performance DLC (diamond-like carbon) composite diaphragm. Three materials with different properties, including DLC, are used to form each part of the diaphragm. DLC is characterized by high stiffness, high damping factor, and low weight, and has an overall acoustic performance that exceeds that of beryllium.
The included ear tips are the newly developed "Spring Tips (Seisen)" ear tips. This ear tip uses a special diffusion structure to suppress bad resonance and significantly reduce high-frequency linear distortion caused by nozzle resonance. While making the high-frequency tone more natural, the special reinforcement support design prevents bass loss due to sound leakage. The special material allows it to fit the ear canal without being sticky.
Equipped with a high-purity copper and silver-plated cable with a star-shaped quad (Star Quad) structure. The 4-core star quad (Star Quad) structure effectively reduces the effects of skin effect and proximity effect, and plays the role of interference prevention.
