Acoustic Signature MCX4 Cartridge
The Acoustic Signature MCX4 is our flagship! This modern moving-coil cartridge is manufactured according to the latest technologies – the optimal partner for our NEO tonearm series. A ‘nude’ Shibata stylus assuring perfect tracking results, gold-plated coils made of oxygen-free copper and a CNC-milled and resonance-optimized chassis developed according to the finite element design principle form the basis for an absolute top-class cartridge.
Special features:
- Modern MC cartridge with gold-plated, oxygen-free copper coils
- Resonance-optimized aluminum chassis
- Easy mounting
- Excellent tracking due to nude Shibata stylus
- Suitable for medium to high mass tonearms

“Delicate and smooth reproduction … the strong bass brought out the strength of the bass drum towards the end … Apart from a very lifelike 3-dimensional sound field, the sound was detailed.”
