📝 Description Condition & Details


Technihard surface treatment is used.


By applying a surface treatment to the aluminum headshell, strength and durability are increased, and unwanted vibrations that cause deterioration in sound quality are efficiently suppressed.


Response is improved due to better propagation efficiency, and a lustrous mid-high range is produced.


PCOCC is used for the terminal pins and lead wires.


PCOCC does not produce crystal grain boundaries in the transmission direction, so you can enjoy pure transmission.
