What Makes Our Headshell Different?
The World's Only Fully Ceramic Headshell
It's a single piece of alumina ceramic:
- Light and incredibly strong
- As rigid as steel at less than half the weight
- The headshell and the connector are one seamless casting
- No internal breaks or lesser materials
- Unique supporting rib minimizes resonances
Advanced materials and construction make the headshell "disappear" sonically. You will hear what your cartridge and tonearm are really capable of!
Based on a Large Scale Study
We studied dozens of headshells to see what separates the best from the rest:
- Quality headshells have high bending resistance. They are very stiff in bending and in torsion, showing low deflection
- Quality headshells have low energy storage. They "ring" only for a short time, and have only one or two clearly defined own frequencies
We built our headshell 2-3 times as strong as the next best headshell we measured. While keeping the energy storage as low as the best headshells out there.
No Detail is Ever Insignificant
- Pure silver litz wiring
- Custom gold-plated contact pins
- Double locking pin for a more rigid connection to the tonearm. The clamping load is spread over the entire diameter of the barrel
- Beautiful custom-made brass fingerlift, screws and knurled nuts are included
- Fully compatible. Fits all the tonearms that accept the standard "SME/Ortofon/JIS" type straight headshells
- Supplied in foam-padded display packaging
