Grado Prestige MC+ Phono Cartridge
Mono 33/45 RPM Cartridge Grado series Prestige mod. MC+
Our classic phono heads have taken a big step forward with the Prestige Series. It is the "third generation" of the Prestige series, which began with the entry level line of Grado dating back to 1953. In all these years we have dedicated to the reproduction of vinyl with our heads that allow high performance at an affordable price.
The newly Grado Prestige MC+ Cartridges uses a three piece OTL cantilever that has a Grado specific diamond mounted on a brass bushing.
Grado’s OTL, or optimized transmission line, technology provides an ideal transfer of signal from the surface of the LP to the generator of the system. This technology rejects unwanted resonances and lowers distortion preserving the fundamental and harmonic frequencies of the music. This also helps keep noise generated by the motor system in the cartridge to a minimum.
There are many analog lovers with record collections that include mono albums. At Grado we strive to have products that will fit all the needs of the analog enthusiast. So now, Grado offers two new cartridge models in a mono version. The MC+ is mounted with an elliciptical diamond using one of GRADO's upgraded generating systems. This will make your records quieter and enhance the musical pleasure of these recordings.
The Prestige model MC+ uses a three-piece OTL cantilever technology, oxygen free wire in the coils and a specially designed, high polished elliptical diamond mounted in a brass bushing.
The development of the Epoch in the Lineage Series gave us an in-depth experience with using an outer housing as a damping device. This led to the creation of a process which de-stresses the chassis and dissipates unwanted energy & resonant frequencies, allowing the desired signal to travel freely.
