We carefully select and cultivate the highest quality spruce from this area, and it undergoes rigorous management during the drying process.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA precision-machined “diamond” cantilever is used to seamlessly transmit the movement of the record’s grooves to the power generator, bringing out high-resolution sound. In addition, compared to diamond cantilever models of other manufacturers, by cutting out the diamond cantilever slightly thicker, we have achieved a more solid sound and improved traceability at a higher level.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe stylus is the ‘Ver. 3’ model, which is a further evolution of the well-received ‘SC stylus’ used for the EX1000. Of course, the stylus is custom-developed by Analog Relax. Although it basically has a line contact shape, a number of multi-faceted cuts are applied vertically, allowing it to reproduce sound with almost no ‘inner distortion’. In addition, the front and back of the stylus tip are cut with different curvatures, making it difficult to pick up the “crackling noise” peculiar to original records and old pressed records, enabling playback with a very high signal to noise ratio.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCartridges with a diamond cantilever typically ‘pick up lots of information but with a tense and edgy sound’ which prevents the listener to enjoy the record. The EX2000 was completed by utilizing advanced assembly techniques to achieve a sound that has depth, range, and substance, while remaining the full amount of the groove information.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"ul1\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eProduct name \u0026amp; number：Analog Relax EX2000 AR-MCC-EX2000\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTransducer：MC Stereo Phono Cartridge\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOutput voltage：0.65mv (1kHz)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eImpedance：8.8Ω\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTracking force：2.1g（Recommended）\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eChannel Separation: 27dB or more（1kHz）\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eChannel Balance: within 0.5dB（1kHz）\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCompliance: 6μm\/mN（100Hz）\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eStylus：Super Curve Line Contact Ver. 3(Pure diamond)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCantilever：Special nude diamond\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCoil material：High Purity copper\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eBody：\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFinest ‘spruce’ from the South Tyrol region of Northern Italy\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003e　　　  Ultra-fine ‘powder coating’\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWeight：about 14.0g\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAll products are made by artisans within Japan.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe solid wood body is made with natural materials, there will be differences in color, grain, weight, etc. between products.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe body color of the grains will change with age.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Analogue Relax","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53118366220555,"sku":null,"price":15000.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0797\/5478\/9131\/files\/ex2000-mc-phono-cartridge-south-tyrol-spruce-made-to-order-6576290.webp?v=1778953521","url":"https:\/\/www.oxfordaudio.co.uk\/products\/ex2000-mc-phono-cartridge-south-tyrol-spruce-made-to-order","provider":"Oxford Audio Consultants","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
