Description: From my private collection: My Sonic Lab Eminent GL MC Cartridge, Upgrade with FG-S Line Contact Diamond and Boron Rod Cantilever. This cartridge has been upgraded by VAS Mr. Steve Leung with FG-S Line Contact Stylus on Boron Cantilever and Suspension Tune Up, just did an audition and the sound is great, better than its original so much, and has only been audition for less then 3 hours. This My Sonic Lab EMINENT GL Low output moving coil cartridge retipped with upgrade square shank, low mass, high polish, grain oriented, gem grade, 4/75µm FG-S line contact diamond, set onto solid 0.28 mm diameter polished boron cantilever. Cosmetically, this cartridge is 100% like new and better because of the massive upgrade cantilever and diamond. The Line contact is known to be one of the most distortion-free diamonds available, and it is super quiet in the groove as well. Boron cantilevers are known to transmit higher frequency response with greater facility than other materials and lightning quick transient response. "Source impedance is low and output energy is high...!"``Eminent'', which was born in the thorough pursuit of ``ultra-low impedance/high energy output...'' which is said to be the ideal ``shape'' of an MC cartridge, made a shocking debut in the audio world when it appeared in 2003. I did. Since then, we have pursued further improvements to this idea and developed it into "Ultra Eminent Bc", but we have now returned to the basics and re-examined "Eminent" to further reduce internal resistance and create even more We decided to work on lowering the impedance."Eminent GL" has been revised to internal impedance = 1Ω and output voltage = 0.4mV (Eminent: 1.8Ω/0.5mV).This is achieved by reducing internal resistance by increasing the cross-sectional area of the conductor by reducing the number of turns in the coil, thereby reducing internal loss and improving phase characteristics.In other words, as a "generator" that obtains high-quality signals, obtaining high energy with as little internal loss as possible is essential in AC theory for signal sources, which minimizes waveform distortion and phase distortion. is. However, within the limited structure of a cartridge, lowering the internal resistance means lowering the output energy, and although it is now easy to amplify this in a subsequent stage (amplifier, transformer, etc.), the reproduced sound Obtaining "dynamic range" is essentially a prerequisite for obtaining it at the "signal source."From this perspective, My Sonic Lab promotes "low impedance and high energy output." On the other hand, increasing the mechanical strength of the cartridge base is also an important issue for improving sound quality, and the free-cutting aluminum alloy of "Eminent" was changed to extra super duralumin (A-7075) for "Eminent GL". Although the hardness is approximately doubled, final treatment is extremely difficult.However, "Eminent GL" was born by daring to overcome this difficulty in order to improve sound quality.As a result, it greatly contributes to improving the sense of power in the low range and the resolution in all bands. In this way, "Eminent GL" further advances the "new world of cartridges" that "Eminent" opened.
