Kuzma - CAR-50 - Moving Coil Turntable Phono Cartridge
The Kuzma CAR-50 Turntable Phono Cartridge exemplifies precision engineering and musical integrity, resulting from a collaboration with a renowned Japanese manufacturer with over 50 years of experience. Designed to complement Kuzma's turntables and tonearms, the CAR-50 features a housing constructed from a combination of brass and aluminum, providing a rigid and inert support for the signal generator. This construction allows the diamond stylus to extract musical information from vinyl grooves with minimal distortion, ensuring a pure and accurate listening experience.
Equipped with 4N pure silver coils, a sapphire cantilever, and a micro-ridge stylus, the CAR-50 is engineered for high-fidelity performance. It offers a frequency response of 10Hz to 45kHz, with a channel balance of less than 1dB at 1kHz and channel separation greater than 30dB at 1kHz. The cartridge requires a tracking force of 2.0g and offers a compliance of 10 x 10⁻⁶ cm/dyne, ensuring precise tracking and minimal distortion.
The Kuzma CAR-50 Turntable Phono Cartridge is a testament to precision engineering and a commitment to authentic analog sound reproduction. Its robust construction, advanced materials, and thoughtful design make it a valuable addition to any high-fidelity audio system, providing listeners with a rich and immersive vinyl playback experience.
