VPI Limited Edition Bloodwood MC Phono Cartridge

Handcrafted for VPI in Japan by Miyajima: Bloodwood Phono Cartridge Plays with Richness and Fullness, Ideal for Listeners with Solid-State Systems and Highly Revealing Speakers

Specially crafted for VPI by Miyajima, and the only threaded-body model the Japanese manufacturer makes, the Bloodwood MC phono cartridge plays with a richness, fullness, and warmth that pulls you into the music with a natural ease. Ideal for listeners with solid-state systems or highly revealing speakers that often lead to fatigue, Bloodwood avoids any lean, analytical characteristics in favor of smoothness and detail.

In addition to featuring stunning looks, the 8.9-gram Bloodwood boasts an aluminum cantilever and elliptical stylus. Its stylus tip is aligned with the cantilever, which means it avoids the transitional errors caused by traditional glued-on construction that seldom line-up in symmetrical fashion. In every fashion, this 0.22mV-output instrument is an analog champion.
