Q. What are the technical specifications for the 2500 moving iron cartridge?

For use on the finest turntables, where a high output moving magnet cartridge is required.   The tapered cantilever with mounted 2 SD diamond gives a smooth but detailed sound, while the metal body delivers fine bass definition.

  1. Threaded base, allowing easy, secure fixing to the tonearm
  2. Gold plated connector pins eliminate corrosion and minimise contact resistance
  3. Super Permalloy poleshoes provide high sensitivity
  4. Super Permalloy shield reduces noise pick-up
  5. Permalloy armature tube reduces mass
  6. Samarium cobalt magnet for higher output
