(一) Key Features & Sound Signature

• Upgraded Ebony Design: Features an open-architecture Ebony wood body,
  technically upgraded from previous models with added copper weight blocks.
  This enhancement ensures stable operation, delivering more solid low-mids, a wider soundstage, and a character that is warm and smooth yet highly detailed.

• High-Output Advantage: As a High-Output (0.8mV) Moving Coil cartridge, it can connect directly to the standard MM input of most phono stages. No additional step-up transformer or expensive MC-only phono preamp is required, making high-end sound easily accessible.

• Versatile Musical Performance: Excels in transient response and detail retrieval. It is particularly suited for the spontaneity of Jazz, the layers of Classical, the dynamics of Rock, the texture of Piano, and perfectly reproduces rich, smoky male and female vocals.

• Fine Craftsmanship: Equipped with an Aluminum Cantilever and Elliptical/Super Elliptical Diamond Stylus, with internal 5N OCC Single-Crystal Copper coils for pure, uncolored signal transmission.

(二) Important Notes & Guidance

• Choose Your Sound: High-output and low-output cartridges each have merits. High-output offers greater compatibility and ease of use, while low-output has higher potential but demands more from your phono stage. Please choose based on your system and listening preferences.

• System Dependency: The final performance of this cartridge will vary depending on your entire audio system (tonearm, phono stage, amplifier, speakers).

• Professional Installation Recommended: The cartridge and its internal coils are extremely delicate. Handle with utmost care during installation. We recommend professional setup.
