Kiseki Blue MC Phono Cartridge

Please contact us to enquire about this cartridge

The Kiseki Blue N.S. moving coil phono cartridge is the first "new style" Kiseki cartridge ever. The typical, but shorter, Kiseki body is machined out of solid aluminum, the motor is built from best available parts today. Two years of experimenting, testing all possible choices of materials and techniques to result in a better new Kiseki Blue. A Kiseki Blue which surpasses the results of the original Kiseki Blue from the 80's and of the more recent Kiseki Blue N.O.S.

A hand-built beauty that evokes adjectives normally reserved for art or jewelry a true masterpiece...

  • Ultimate quality

  • Precious materials

  • Natural performance

What is a N.S. Cartridge?

 Kiseki uses N.O.S. for New Old Style, and N.S. for “New Style”. It means for new 2013 designed cartridges, they use the newest technology and parts, but based as much as possible on the parts as used in the limited version of N.O.S. cartridges plus a new body. They have chosen for a shorter style body as that is easier to use with the arms currently on the market. The shape of the body is based on a design as already used by us in prior models. It is in fact a mix of the Kiseki body and the body of our MillTek high output MC cartridges. The N.S. cartridges are based on the same internal design, the same kind of parts as the N.O.S. cartridges, but all parts are current production.

    Kiseki Blue NS Cartridge
    27 September 2017  | 

    I’ve had the Kiseki Blue NS in my system and the best way to describe it is that it’s a jewel.

    Wonderful tracker excellent dynamics voices so warm and natural doesn’t seem to get caught out I can’t give enough superlatives.

    Excellent Investment

    The cartridge needs some time to open up. 4 things that impressed me:

    1. Built quality excellent
    2. Outstanding tracking abilities
    3. Sounds well balanced building on a sound bass fundament

    Well suited for classical music and at ease reproducing critical instruments like violins and piano.

    The cartridge resolves to a high degree, maybe not as much as a Lyra Kleos but it is a more natural performer and more easy to listen to.

    Needs a very capable phono stage to exploit its potential.

    Excellent investment.
