Low-output moving coil

The TAS 1600 is a low-output MC cartridge, at 0.4 mV under 5.5 cm/s. Its internal impedance of 12 ohms calls for a load above 100 ohms on a good MC phono stage.

Detail of the mechanism

Solid boron and Line Contact diamond

The solid boron cantilever pairs with a Special Line Contact diamond, whose cut meets the groove over a tall contact area. That geometry brings out the finest detail and spreads the bearing pressure. Resolution goes up.

Rear connections

Resonance-optimised aluminium body

The aluminium body is optimised against resonance, which keeps signal transmission clean and controlled. The carefully tuned generator opens a wide stage and holds the dynamics.
