:: Super Low Impedance MC Cartridge ::
 
With MC Cartridge, if the coil turn is made less to reduce its impedance, the output voltage also becomes lower. We have overcome this problem by adopting the special high-μ material SH-μX for its core, the thick oxygen-less copper of 0.5μm for its coil, and the powerful Neodymium magnet for its magnetic circuit. The result is the unprecedented super low impedance of 0.8Ω with the high output of 0.35mV. With its pure Boron cantilever, the highest tracking fidelity is obtained to pick up whole of the music signals cut into the record groove.
 
The inductance of cartridge is as important as its impedance. The lower inductance, realized by reducing the coil turns, improves the phase characteristics of cartridge. By this, the peak of pulse response gets higher, and the trangent response sharper. This sharpness of sound creates the natural presence of music, as if players are performing just in front of you.
 
It is finished with the dignity to match its high performances, having aluminum alloy body with japan-like surface.
 
NOTE :
It is recommended to reduce the wiring impedance inside the player system, so that you can enjoy the best of HCTR01.

:: Phase Variance less than ±1º ::
 
The cartridge and the phono equalizer are inseparable to perform at their best. HEQA01 provides HCTR01 the additional electromagnetic damping, so that the cantilever is controlled its jumpy motion even under the needle pressure of less than 1g.
When you use HEQA01 and HCTR01 together, we recommend to set the needle pressure at 0.6g - 1.0g. By this set up, you can enjoy the best performance of HCTR01, and the sharpest trangent response.
