Design and Build Quality

Gold Note Vasari Red Side View

The Vasari Red's precision-engineered body, crafted from a single piece of aluminium 7000 alloy, immediately communicates Gold Note's commitment to excellence. This high-damping construction provides exceptional resonance control, while the distinctive red logo adds a touch of sophistication to any turntable setup.

Technical Excellence

At the heart of the Vasari Red MM Cartridge lies its sophisticated Shibata stylus design. This isn't just any stylus – it's a precision-engineered component that provides increased groove contact while maintaining minimal wear on your precious vinyl collection.

The lightweight aluminium cantilever deserves special mention, offering remarkable tracking ability that translates into outstanding dynamic response and detail retrieval.

With a recommended tracking weight of 2g and a suggested load of 47kΩ, the Vasari Red is refreshingly straightforward to set up. For specific guidance on optimal installation for your turntable, our team at The Audio Tailor is just a phone call away at 1300 308 711.
