The Activo Q1 in-ear monitors are a set of earbuds developed by Activo in collaboration with the Korean brand DITA.
According to Activo—a sub-brand of Astell & Kern—their new in-ear monitors are designed for (equally) active users. They promise high performance while listening to the ACTIVO Q1. Internally, they feature a hybrid design consisting of a PM1 and a 9.8 mm dynamic driver. This setup is encased in a brass housing and paired with a Knowles balanced armature. The Q1 is a wired in-ears, aimed at delivering undistorted, uncompressed, and pure sound reproduction. For the cable, the DITA MOCCA2 is used, manufactured by Cardas in the USA. The monitors allow for both balanced and unbalanced listening.
The ACTIVO Q1 comes with a durable carrying case and five sizes of Type E eartips. The price for this complete set is €399.
