Gold Note - Vasari Red MM Cartridge

Immerse yourself in the rich, authentic sound of vinyl with the cutting-edge Gold Note - Vasari Red MM Cartridge, a harmonious alchemy of tradition and technology meticulously designed for the audiophiles who demand nothing but the epitome of audio fidelity. From the sleek, high-damping body crafted from a single, precision-machined piece of aluminum 7000 alloy, to the feather-light yet ultra-rigid aluminum cantilever, each aspect of the Vasari is engineered to exacting standards.

This smart design diminishes record and stylus wear, allowing for a listening experience that approaches the sublime, with astoundingly accurate playback that reaches into the deepest recesses of the grooves.

With its impressive specifications - an output level of 4mV, a broad frequency response from 15-25000Hz, and optimal channel separation over 20dB - the Vasari Red MM Cartridge enshrines sonic purity and lasting durability. The recommended tracking weight and load offer an easy set-up that promises an enchanting auditory journey with every spin.

Housed in a photopolymer resin body with an iconic red logo, this cartridge isn't just a tool for audio reproduction; it's a statement piece, a tribute to the timeless allure of vinyl, and a testament to your commitment to unparalleled sound quality.
