- The world’s first and only “Tunable” and "Customizable" phono cartridge -

 

This Audio MusiKraft polished lithium phono cartridge comes with an installed modified Denon DL-103 generator and with the necessary wood inserts and finish of your choice. 

The lithium variant is used in aerospace and high strength applications requiring low density, high stiffness, superior damage tolerance and excellent corrosion resistance. Lithium additives increase the strength and modulus of the aluminum alloy while lowering its density and the high copper content is a favorable damping property which highly guided our choice. The alloy exhibits very good machining and surface finishing. It is 10% lighter and less prone to oxidize compared to standard aircraft aluminum. The shell will keep a longer lasting mirror finish.

This cartridge can be fully customized to your musical and/or visual preference.
