A clear breakthrough in analog music reproduction has been achieved with the V2 generation of Clearaudio moving magnet cartridges. They are able to reproduce a dynamic range of 100 dB with a frequency response of 10 Hz up to 100 kHz.
The new V2 line of moving coil phono cartridges uses a new generator design which has raised the efficiency of the generator by an astounding 30%. This has resulted in improved electrical outputs of 0.5mV to 0.9mV throughout the range. The generator construction of the new V2 moving coil cartridge generation is absolutely symmetrical: mechanically, magnetically and electrically. All Clearaudio moving coils use their proven pure 24 carat gold coils.
The new Micro-HD Diamond tip provides a hybrid parabolic geometry with a stylus radius of 0.008mm x 0.040mm. The total mass (0.00016 grams) is one-fifth that of the previous diamond stylus.
Cartridge body resonances are minimized through the twelve finger design of the mounting plate, with each of the twelve fingers having a different radius than the others.
The cartridge bodies of the 5 models: Goldfinger, Titanium, da Vinci, Stradivari and Concerto, are made of the following materials respectively: gold, titanium, ceramic coated aluminum, Ebony and Satinee wood.
