Linn Ekstatik Flagship Moving Coil Cartridge

Linn Ekstatik Flagship Moving Coil Cartridge is an absolute Gem of a cartridge. To​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌ develop the finest cartridge we ever had. We actually had to look further and use a wide variety of materials.

We performed a great number of tests and experimented with different materials and configurations for the cartridge’s body, inserts, cantilever, suspension, windings, and leads. The final output is Ekstatik. The new star of the Linn cartridge catalogue.

Linn Ekstatik Flagship Moving Coil Cartridge

Linn Ekstatik Flagship Moving Coil Cartridge, our completely new, top carving cartridge. Decorates the record of arm/cartridge harmony with a new level. Its one of a kind build makes a thorough and harmonious Synergy with Ekos SE continually. More undesirable resonances are carried away along the arm and released through the sub chassis.

Outstanding Sound Reproduction

Whilst our quest for better materials led us through various trials with different metals. Ultimately it was the use of aluminium bronze inserts. Now that is one of the prominent features of Linn Ekstatik Flagship Moving Coil Cartridge. These inserts help us extract the sound advantages of this alloy that we discovered.

Ekstatik’s Interior Mass 7 Grams

Through designing a honeycomb pattern into the cartridge body. We have removed Ekstatik’s interior mass so that the overall weight has been brought down to our ideal level of approximately 7g.

Using a micro ridge stylus atop a sapphire cantilever results in a highly sensitive cartridge. Compared to boron or aluminium. The sapphire cantilever is so much stiffer that the transmission of the signal from the stylus to the generator is less lossy.

Highly Sensitive Cartridge

Ultimately, the package is a quick and highly sensitive cartridge with extra capabilities further enhanced by the use of these materials. Which have been expertly combined in different ​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌configurations.

Features and Benefits

• Simple to Use: Installing and keeping up the product require only minimal ​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌effort

Review of the Linn Ekstatik Flagship Moving Coil Cartridge

Linn achieves a cartridge body weight close to their preferred 7g sweet spot by their bespoke honeycomb design. The Linn Ekstatik, being a nimble and responsive cartridge. it is a great example of the cartridges that Linn is capable of ​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌producing

Suitable for Extended Usage

Linn​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌ came up with Ekstatik and Ekos SE as a matched system. Arm and cartridge have the same design intent. Arm titanium structure and the cartridge sapphire cantilever are two elements that mainly aim for fast energy dissipation and at the same time store minimal energy. Together, they set the reference standard for LP12 performance ​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌nowadays.

Seamless Integration and Convenient

Linn Ekstatik Flagship Moving Coil Cartridge installation procedure is the one you can do on your own. Also, it pairs very well with high end turntables. Simply put, you get more music and less ​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌hassles.
