Kuzma - CAR-30 Turntable Cartridge
Kuzma CAR cartridges are made to our specifications by a Japanese company with over 50 years experience in this field. The same approach, with regard to design and manufacture of cartridges housings is used as in other Kuzma products. A combination of brass and aluminum parts, made by Kuzma, provides rigid and inert support to the signal generator, allowing the diamond tip to extract musical information from the record grooves without distortion.
NOTE: USA sales and shipment only. Some Kuzma items ship from overseas, so delivery times may vary. Accordingly, delivery may take 4-6+ weeks. For questions about availability and shipment, please contact Sound Approach.
