Clearaudio Concept V2 MM High-Output Moving Magnet Features

• The Concept v2 MM is a high-output moving magnet phono cartridge with an aluminum body. To compliment the Clearaudio Concept turntable, Clearaudio has introduced two affordable, high-performance phono cartridges: the Concept v2 MM (Moving Magnet) and Concept MC (Moving Coil). Due to the unique “frictionless magnetic bearing” design of the Concept’s Verify CF tonearm, either cartridge is available factory pre-installed on the Concept turntable at a special package price.

• Both Clearaudio Concept v2 MM and MC cartridges are also available separately for use on Clearaudio or other brand turntables. The Concept v2 MM is a high-output moving magnet cartridge featuring an aluminum body and based on Clearaudio’s excellent Performer v2 Ebony. Its sound is both musical and inviting, with classic moving magnet warmth and body.

• Clearaudio's V2 MM technology uses ebony as a resonanceresistant body. Other ingredients of the recipe for success are the most effective reduction of moving mass, an optimized polishing technique for the stylus and highly effective cartridge damping.

• The Clearaudio V2 moving magnet cartridges are meticulously measured, analysed, and hand-selected into four performance levels. In this way Clearaudio achieves the best stereo channel matching, minimum phase error and distortion, flattest frequency response and highest dynamic range at each price point.

• The cartridges produce an audiophile sound of superlative quality – spatially detailed and vividly textured, with bass that does not wallow and treble that is not harsh. The models of the Clearaudio MM V2 series provide outstanding sound quality on all current tonearms. With the exception of the MM concept V2, which is made of aluminium, all the cartridges in this series are made with housings of hand-polished ebony – the key to record-breaking weight values.
