General

A standard cartridge's stylus is much too narrow for your 78RPM records, so it will damage them and cause a lot of annoying noise. With the Prestige 78 RPM mono cartridge with 78C stylus, Grado offers the ideal solution. This cartridge boasts a high output and delivers outstanding sound. The 78C stylus is equipped with a 3.0mm spherical diamond and keeps your 78RPM records in optimal condition.

Prestige 78 RPM: a high-quality cartridge

The 78RPM cartridges from Grado's Prestige series offer a high output, and under average playing conditions, they have an estimated life of 600 to 1,000 hours. Their wide needles perfectly track a 78RPM record's wide grooves without causing any damage. Thanks to its wide frequency response and superior sound, the Grado 78 RPM is one of the top 78RPM cartridges available.

Grado

Grado was founded in 1953 by Joseph Grado, and is one of the oldest familiy companies in the audio industry. It's known for its remarkable headphone and phono cartridge designs. Grado products are hand-made.

Eindelijk een MONO element.
Op de site ziet het element er mooier uit.
Ik neem aan dat de naald met de lage druk van rond de vijf gram een goede weergave heeft.
U merkt wel dat ik hem pas kort gebruik.
Later graag meer Tot Spoedig.

Duidelijk beter om 78tr platen te spelen.
Vollere klank, je benut de hele groef en er zijn duidelijk meer klanken hoorbaar.
Minder ruis.

Na diverse reviews van 78 toeren elementen te hebben gelezen, kwam deze Grado er het beste uit (prijs/kwaliteit). Dus op zoek gegaan en hier gevonden.

Ik gebruik dit element met de "normale" bakelieten 78 toeren platen. Het geluid is prima, de naald blijft goed in de groef zitten ondanks de snelheid, hoewel ik nog geen ernstig beschadigde plaat heb gebruikt.

Handleiding is bijgevoegd, installatie is dan ook eenvoudig.

Nadeel is de toch wel forse prijs. Maar voor de liefhebbers van oude platen is dit element het overwegen waard.
