LP GEAR CT493 PHONO CARTRIDGE
The LP Gear CT483 phono cartridge offers high fidelity sound quality for popular USB turntables such as ion, Numark and Marantz. We've improved its performance by using a special fulcrum materials along with a thin wall Zualum cantilever that traces with precision the contours of the grooves thus resulting in better sound quality with more atmosphere and clarity. This is in fact the theme of the CT493 series. It's a fine sound that elevates and soothes.
As in other series within the LP Gear magnetic phono cartridge range, your investment in an entry level cartridge does not become obsolete. When your appreciation of music and critical listening develop and your demands for sophisticated electronics grow, you can easily and sensibly upgrade performance by simply installing a better stylus within the series.
For those seeking better sound quality and musical redemption from their turntable for recording and listening, the LP Gear CT493 phono cartridge offers upliftment.
The cartridge comes complete with a LP Gear CTS493 stylus, mountung screws and nuts.
