Natural Resonance Control:Crafted by hand at Grado Labs, the Grado Statement 3 wooden housing delivers a warm, natural acoustic tone by damping micro-vibrations before they reach your tonearm. Designed for vinyl lovers seeking dynamic clarity, this fixed coil design delivers the musical performance benefits of an MC unit while retaining internal structural stability. Encasement of the generator within a cured wooden body suppresses chassis resonances to maintain organic, balanced sound reproduction across all music genres, building upon the legacy of the Statement 2.Precision Magnetics and Ultra-Pure Coils:Unlike conventional phono cartridges, this design utilises a single-piece magnetic circuit structure. Eliminating unnecessary joints keeps the assembly rigid to prevent mechanical distortion. Within the generator assembly, ultra-high purity long crystal oxygen-free copper wire is precisely wound around the coils to ensure clean electrical conductivity. This design stands out among premium phono cartridges, allowing delicate acoustic instruments and vocals to maintain their true physical presence.Advanced Cantilever and Channel Calibration:The internal assembly features multi-piece OTL cantilever technology designed to reduce tip mass, allowing the stylus to track complex record grooves with minimal tracing error. Each unit undergoes individual calibration to ensure precise channel balance and accurate stereo imaging. Whether integrated into a playback setup configured for phono cartridges-MC or specialized phono cartridges-MC-low output preamps, this refined MC cartridge serves as an instock upgrade for high-end analogue turntables.Authorized Dealer:We are an authorized dealer for Grado. Purchasing from a trusted brand partner gives you complete peace of mind, ensuring your investment is backed by the full manufacturer's warranty and dedicated technical support.Technical Specifications: Hand-Cured Wooden Body: Suppresses unwanted resonances for an organic, clear sound profile.
