Ikeda - 9mono MC Phono Cartridge
IKEDA 9mono was designed specifically for use in mono records and is not a modification of the stereo cartridge. The body is made of solid aluminum alloy layers, to securely hold the generator unit.
The needle holder is made from of bi-layer duralumin tubes for ruggedness and to minimize weight. The chip needle (stylus) has an oval shape that will effectively read information from any mono LPs in any period of their pressing.
Unlike all conventional mono pickup heads, the 9mono has two independent coils - right and left, located separately in the housing so that the electrical circuit is isolated. The two low resistance coils have vertical winding. A high efficiency permalloy core generates power only in the horizontal motion. This architecture eliminates extraneous hum noise that can be disturbing while listening to the music.
The design and technical solutions in the IKEDA 9mono cartridge accomplish the main task - to reveal the hidden nuances in the record and to play it with the charm and harmony that it was originally created with.
