Sumiko Songbird Low Output Catridge
The Sumiko Songbird is a fantastic value 'naked' Moving Coil Cartridge. This is their low output version which has a bit more sensitivity and well worth it if you have a capable Moving Coil Phono Stage.
The sound of the Songbirds is of space and transparency. They are illuminating cartridges and frequently hailed as the perfect first real cartridge for those part-time audiophiles. But beware, the quality of this cartridge will turn any part-timers into raging full-timers!
