SoundSmith - IROX Blue X - High-Output Phono Cartridge
Soundsmith's unbreakable special use cartridge. Perfect for any harsh repetitive use.
The IROX Blue is distinguished from the IROX Ultimate in the mere fact that it has an elliptical stylus, not the Nude elliptical stylus. It's perfect for parties, DJ-ing, public institutions like libraries, or perhaps just clumsy audiophiles who fear damaging their precarious cartridges; great for any potentially damaging use. This cartridge is literally unbreakable with any kind of reasonable record playing use.
