This magnificent little bird sings with heart and soul!
With The CANARY we have added new sublime plumage to our famed phono cartridge program. The CANARY is a top quality moving coil phono cartridge, custom handbuilt by A.J. van den Hul. It features a very healthy 0.55 mV output, matched crystal gold-wire coils and an open resonance-free construction. With exceptionally good price to performance and placed one step above our renowned The FROG ®, this cartridge sets new standards in replay precision and fidelity.
A few of The CANARY's properties:
- Extremely accurate soundstage instrument positioning due to incorporated new technology.
- Very flat frequency response without noticeable colorations.
- Very high cross-talk damping.
- Reduced sensitivity to load impedance variations.
- Its front-pole protects the short cantilever, making it less sensitive to small handling mistakes.
- A strong AlNiCo magnet produces a very clean sound that is also the trademark of its predecessors The COLIBRI and The CONDOR.
- A very sturdy cantilever support strongly damps partial vibrations.
- Its nylon body further damps all mechanical resonances and reduces their emission to the tone-arm.
Production time:
- The production time for a The CANARY cartridge after ordering is about two weeks.
