Product Description

The fact that Sumiko Moonstone Moving Magnet Cartridge indicates that it is the component that reads the grooves on a vinyl record, and it is an essential part of a turntable. The cartridge is designed to improve the sound quality of your vinyl playback. Providing warmth and detail that makes the music come alive for you.

Sumiko Moonstone Moving Magnet Cartridge

Derived from the use of an elliptical diamond profile and a reduced moving mass, the Sumiko Moonstone Moving Magnet Cartridge delivers outstanding imaging qualities. Making the sound full, vibrant, deep, and crisp. The texture is keenly realistic. The Moonstone suspends and controls the sonic image over a nearly absent noise floor, providing fantastic clarity.

Outstanding Sound Reproduction

The Moonstone features a finely polished elliptical stylus for accurate information retrieval from the record groove. Mounted onto a bespoke cantilever and uses a smaller magnet than its more affordable siblings. The Moonstone still features the same integrated body and generator system as its counterparts. This is designed to significantly reduce internal resonances.

The result is a still affordable, high-performance moving magnet cartridge that delivers the punch and convincing realism of a well-designed moving magnet. But with a well-balanced, dimensionally dense, and breathtakingly dynamic sonic spectrum that’s more relatable to a moving coil type.

Latest Generation Oysters

Designed for discerning, value-minded vinyl lovers, Sumiko’s latest generation of premium moving magnet Oysters builds upon, enhances, and refines the sonic character that listeners worldwide have enjoyed for decades. The cartridge body design of the Sumiko Moonstone addresses the problem of resonance by dispersing and dissipating it away from the generator system. Resulting in a sound quality reminiscent of moving coil designs.

Made In Japan

From Oyster to Reference. Each Sumiko phono cartridge is crafted by hand in Yokohama, Japan, near the waters where their namesake Oysters dwell. They’ve selected by ear the finest materials that combine to deliver a performance that has enlightened generations of listeners.

Sumiko thoroughly auditions each design until it is perfect. Production is then executed by world-class Cartridge makers with a collective eye for precision and quality when making the Moonstone Moving Magnet.

Summary of Sumiko Moonstone Moving Magnet Cartridge

The​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌ low resonance body along with the generator system works to minimize distortion. So you can listen to the sound in a more pure and natural way. Pure copper internal wiring does not hinder the musical detail even the tiniest one from flowing.

Increased Frequency Response

The Moonstone endowed with a Micron elliptical stylus is indeed a serene and elegant sound. The stylus that has been highly polished can play separate sounds and distinguishes the fine details better, thus providing a greater degree of reality.
