Tuscany cartridges feature an extra-thin Micro Ridge diamond tip developed with Adamant-Namiki, the world most famous professional Diamond manufacturer: the special multi faced shape cut guarantees the best deep vinyl groove contact possible. The Diamond tip is mechanically inserted and blocked into a new telescopic Boron cantilever hold by a Titanium pipe, resulting in increased rigidity for the whole structure. Every Titanium pipe is finely machined from a single block of metal in 4 spokes that handle the cartridge silver micro coils hilt by a Teflon spacer to achieve great rigidity while allowing a perfect alignment building precision for best tracking results. The non-deformable harmonic steel cantilever suspension is blocked with a gold plated nut on the bottom side of the crossbar gold case positioned behind the micro-coils Teflon spacer to avoid unwanted vibration and improve even further solid groove tracking ability. With thinner and longer gold-plated pin connectors, Tuscany is able to provide a wider ideal contact with the arm cinch to avoid energy dispersion and improve grounding for a surprisingly silent background that will show at best every single detail. The body's cube design offers fantastic structural rigidity and gorgeous style, it also makes VTA adjustments very intuitive and precise having a perfectly flat bottom line. Tuscany's 7050 alloy ultra-light body is injected with fluid polymers to provide a pronounced dampening control effect. The Italian high-quality finishes and exotic structure of the Tuscany Series are designed to satisfy the most demanding ears for uncompromised musical pleasure. * all Tuscany cartridges come with serial number indelibly printed in the engraved area at the top of the body Tuscany Gold Tuscany Gold can be driven by quality active MC phono preamplifiers without the need of Step-Up transformers due to its extra-light, precisely hand-wrapped micro-coils in pure silver that enable 4ohm of internal impedance and 0.25mV of output level.
