The Concept v2 MM is a high-output moving magnet phono
cartridge with an aluminum body.

To compliment the Clearaudio Concept turntable, Clearaudio
has introduced two affordable, high-performance phono cartridges: the Concept
v2 MM (Moving Magnet) and Concept MC (Moving Coil). Due to the unique
“frictionless magnetic bearing” design of the Concept’s Verify CF tonearm,
either cartridge is available factory pre-installed on the Concept turntable at
a special package price. Both Clearaudio Concept v2 MM and MC cartridges are
also available separately for use on Clearaudio or other brand turntables.

The Concept v2 MM is a high-output moving magnet
cartridge featuring an aluminum body and based on Clearaudio’s excellent
Performer v2 Ebony. Its sound is both musical and inviting, with classic moving
magnet warmth and body.

MOVING MAGNET V2 CARTRIDGES

Precision engineering in the pursuit of the best sound

Clearaudio’s V2 MM technology uses ebony as a
resonanceresistant body. Other ingredients of the recipe for success are the
most effective reduction of moving mass, an optimized polishing technique for
the stylus and highly effective cartridge damping.

The Clearaudio V2 moving magnet cartridges are meticulously
measured, analysed, and hand-selected into four performance levels. In this way
Clearaudio achieves the best stereo channel matching, minimum phase error and
distortion, flattest frequency response and highest dynamic range at each price
point.

The cartridges produce an audiophile sound of superlative
quality – spatially detailed and vividly textured, with bass that does not
wallow and treble that is not harsh. The models of the Clearaudio MM V2 series
provide outstanding sound quality on all current tonearms.

With the exception of the MM concept V2, which
is made of aluminium, all the cartridges in this series are made with housings
of hand-polished ebony – the key to record-breaking weight values.
