Rainier MM
The Rainier is a venerable Moving Magnet Cartridge which expands on Sumiko’s legacy for smooth, natural sound reproduction in its affordable cartridge models. After years of development, the Rainier features an integrated body and generator system that significantly reduces internal resonances. Finished with an expertly shaped elliptical stylus, the Rainier is capable of extracting even the more nuanced musical details.
Latest Generation Oysters
Designed for discerning, value-minded vinyl lovers, Sumiko’s latest generation premium moving magnet Oysters build upon, enhance and refine the sonic character that listeners worldwide have enjoyed for decades. The cartridge body design of the Sumiko Rainier 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. Theyโve 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 Rainier Moving Magnet.
