Cartridges

Grado cartridges are renowned for their hand-crafted design and use of proprietary technologies like the twin-magnet system, which delivers exceptional accuracy and warmth in sound reproduction. They feature a unique, low-mass generating system that reduces tracking force, preserving vinyl records and ensuring smooth playback. With meticulous craftsmanship and a reputation for balancing clarity, detail, and musicality, Grado cartridges offer a premium listening experience for audiophiles and vinyl enthusiasts alike.

Ortofon cartridges are renowned for their precision engineering and use of advanced technologies, such as their Nude Stylus Design, where the stylus and shank are crafted from a single diamond piece to ensure superior groove tracking and reduced resonance. Their Moving Coil (MC) cartridges feature ultra-low internal impedance and optimized damping, delivering highly detailed sound reproduction with exceptional transient response and clarity. Additionally, Ortofon integrates Wide-Range Damping Systems and Split-Pole Pin Technology in many models, achieving flat frequency response, reduced distortion, and unparalleled accuracy for high-fidelity audio performance.

Sumiko cartridges are distinguished by their handcrafted precision and the use of advanced materials, such as nude line-contact styli and resonance-optimized housings, which enhance tracking accuracy and minimize unwanted vibrations. Their designs often feature interchangeable stylus assemblies, allowing users to upgrade performance easily without replacing the entire cartridge body. Additionally, Sumiko offers a diverse range of both moving magnet (MM) and moving coil (MC) cartridges, catering to various audiophile preferences and ensuring compatibility with a wide array of turntable setups.
