Clearaudio Concerto v2.1 MC Phono Cartridge

Description

The Concerto v2.1 is the first model in the Clearaudio MC
line that combines our twelve-finger body with our fully symmetrical moving
coil phono cartridge generator design. Cartridge body resonances, while
tracking in the groove, are minimized through the twelve-finger design of the
mounting plate, each finger with a different radius. Satinee wood is used for
the body material to further control resonance and the v2 mounting plate
feature a tapped metal insert for best coupling to the headshell.

Developed in the 1970s by Peter Suchy, our unique moving
coil phono cartridge generator design is symmetrical mechanically, magnetically
and electrically. With the Concerto v2.1 generator, positioning their 24-karat
pure gold air-core coils inside twice the number of super neodymium magnets
creates more linearity and lower distortion. The new Micro-HD Diamond stylus is
attached to a solid boron rod cantilever, transcribing the groove modulations
to provide fast transient response, musical timing, and dynamics.
