«  great! a reference! »

Published on 08/27/11 at 16:10
I have this unit since before yesterday. My turntable is a Technics SL-1700, my pregnant 3A Allegro 120 integrated amplifier and my one Teac AS-100 as well say that any time the 70's!
I had a Panasonic cell before and I was so-so sound. I doubt it came from there .. but hey I was not sure.

What I like most:
The amount of bandwidth is great. It is not just a number, we sense when we installed it.
What is nice is that as the diamond than many of the cell which is always more convenient whether to remove dust or other.
What I like least: I do not know ... it's not super nice but frankly it will be tape royal right?


The money is unbeatable for me. At this price, I found no cell having such characteristics. Honestly for 59 euros useless to hesitate, it worth. Even my girlfriend who was super skeptical (she would slap a few delusions of audiophiles with two balls) was amazed and has rediscovered his vinyl (and me!)
I'm not as good as the models above but in any case the cell has changed my plate and not just to remake it 100 times this choice!
As for the technical part:

Output at 1 KHz 5CM/sec: 5mV
Bandwidth: 10 ~ 50,000 Hz
Recommended Load: 47 Kohm
Channel Separation at 1KHz: 35 dB
Force recommended: 1.5 g
Inductance 45mH
Resistance 475
Compliance CUs 20
Weight: 5.5 g
