- CU series with ‘six nines’ copper coils and stabilized wood bodies.
- AG – CU series with silver clad copper coils and stabilized stone bodies.

What is not readily shown in the specification of each level is the intense grading, voicing and optimizing that goes into the resulting performance, far more than basic material changes. All full-size models are 12Cu and 0.28Mv output, with cartridge weight ranging from ~ 9g -12g. Lightweight ‘baby’ models, especially designed for air bearing linear tracking tonearms are 13Cu and ~ 7g. These cartridges are designed for long life with full repair and rebuild service from the factory.
