Helps deliver rich tonal texture, stable output, and low noise.

Solid Boron Cantilever

Equipped with a 6 mm solid boron cantilever.
Ensures precise groove tracing, fast transient response, and excellent detail retrieval.

Pathfinder Line-Contact Stylus

Features a line-contact diamond stylus for maximum groove contact.
Offers extended high-frequency reproduction, long lifespan, and superior tracking accuracy.

Rigid Aluminum Alloy Body

Made from 7075-grade aluminium for reduced resonance and improved structural rigidity.
Enhances clarity, focus, and overall sound stability.

Highly Detailed and Musical Sound

Deep, controlled bass with excellent texture.
Natural, open midrange ideal for vocals and acoustic instruments.
Smooth, extended highs with no harshness.
Wide, stable soundstage with strong imaging and channel separation.

Technical Performance
