Linn Adikt Moving Magnet Cartridge

$995.00

Linn Adikt MM Cartridge

The Linn Adikt has been designed to retrieve a class-leading level of musical detail from the groove of a record, using an efficient and affordable moving magnet (MM) configuration. This makes it an ideal starting point for any quality vinyl playback system and its performance is more than a match for many more expensive moving coil (MC) designs.

The Adikt cartridge features a rigid body and Gyger II replaceable stylus, both of which help to achieve a finely detailed and dynamic sound. It is easily mounted on a wide range of tone arms, including Linn’s Majik and Akito.

Linn Krystal Moving Coil Cartridge

$2,495.00

Linn Krystal Moving Coil Cartridge

Two years in development, Krystal uses the design principles of our leading moving coil cartridge Kandid to capture the minute changes in the record groove, letting you hear every musical detail.

Krystal features a similar approach to minimising mass as Kandid, using a nude design to give the cartridge less inertia so it can react more quickly to the changes in the groove. It also uses the triple-point mounting system for a solid connection to the tone arm head shell, while the aircraft grade 7075 aluminium chassis provides a lightweight, stiff and stable platform for the generator. Even the adhesive used on Krystal was painstakingly selected to provide the most rigid bond possible to avoid any dampening effects.

Whether you specify Krystal on your current turntable or buy it as part of an Akurate LP12 , you're guaranteed to enjoy a more musical performance from all your vinyl.

Reduce to the maximum

Take the best and make it better"… sometimes the Clearaudio motto proves to be quite a challenge. Especially when it calls for a brand new cartridge design that will improve upon our entry level Concept MC cartridge but without breaking a key price point!

How did we do it? By taking the 'essence' of the Concept MC design and applying even tighter controls to every element of its construction. The boron cantilever, the micro-line stylus and of course the Clearaudio patented moving coil generator have been subjected to the most stringent scrutiny, thus ensuring superb dynamics, fine resolution and channel matching of better than 0.5dB.

The electrical parameters are such that the Essence MC will match with almost any MC phono stage, guaranteeing superb results: natural tonality, three dimensional sound staging, vivid dynamics and captivating musicality. That's the essence of our new MC!
