Sumiko Pearl MM cartridge

Designed on the basis of the Black Pearl, the elliptical stylus is finer, the coils are better quality with a more flexible suspension. This gives it a better frequency response, a superior dynamic range and better gain. Like all other Sumiko, timbre comes first and transparency only second. However, definition is excellent and the overall balance remarkable for a Hi-Fi cartridge at this price range. We would especially recommend it for classical, acoustic, folk or jazz music, rather than for shaking the walls with the latest Slipknot record! Its weight combined with its compliance and tracking force make it readily compatible with the majority of light and medium weight tonearms. 

An excellent, expertly designed moving magnet cartridge which is a clear alternative to Ortofon, Goldring or Grado cartridges.

Would recommend!
