QUINTET BLUE TECHNOLOGY
Featuring a Nude Elliptical diamond mounted on an aluminium cantilever, the Quintet Blue reproduces more details in your music. The combination of a step-up in terms of stylus tip and a lightweight cantilever results in increased dynamics and resolution, due to its ability to respond to the record groove quickly and accurately.
QUINTET BLUE SOUND
The Quintet Blue is a very homogeneous cartridge whose sound image will tend to more smooth reproduction compared to Quintet Red and moderate dynamic strength compared to Quintet Bronze. It will bring more space, depth and detail into the sound and is a very good choice for any kind of music, especially rhythmic.
A special ABS (Acrylonitrile/Butadiene/Styrene) thermoplastic material is used for manufacturing the body. This lightweight, impact-resistant material is very suitable for injection moulding and provides a very durable scratch-resistant surface.
Neodymium magnets are implemented within Quintet models to achieve an optimal output. Low internal impedance makes the cartridge less sensitive to load and, therefore, ensures compatibility with the widest range of preamps.
Top mounting of the Quintet cartridges is easy and secure using the screws supplied. The aluminium frame has threaded mounting holes and is fitted easily with either the 5mm or 7mm screws depending on the thickness of the headshell.
In addition, the Quintet seriesโ right angles, straight lines, stylus visibility and ample distance between the record surface and the cartridgeโs bottom will make it easy to mount and align the cartridge and tonearm correctly with almost any tonearm.
