About Clearaudio Concept MC Cartridge
ABOUT:
Clearaudio is famous for its moving coil cartridges, with its first patents and models developed in the 1970s by Peter Suchy. When designing their Concept turntable in 2010, the goal was to create a high-performance, high-value MC that could be factory-installed on the Concept tonearm with its magnetic bearing. The Concept MC fulfilled this with a cartridge that embodies the sonic ethos of Clearaudio.
The Concept MC uses independent coils in a V configuration, similar to the separate symmetrical coil design used today in all Clearaudio MCs starting with the Talismann v2. Clearaudio was a pioneer in the use of boron cantilevers and fine-line styli, and the Concept MC uses both to ensure excellent trackability and resolution. Its MC generator uses dual high-quality copper windings for an output of .4mV and an internal resistance of 11 ohms, allowing use with many high-gain phono stages, including our nano v2 and Smart v2.
