Pioneer PC-110
¥ 6,000 (around 1973)
Commentary
Lightweight MM type cartridge.
By combining an aluminum light alloy cantilever and a 0.25 mm diameter diamond needle, a 0.82 mg vibration system has been realized and excellent characteristics have been realized.
Special rubber with strong repulsive force is used for the damper of the cantilever.
In order to reproduce the matrix system 4 ch without distortion, sufficient compliance is provided even in the vertical direction, and phase characteristics in the high frequency range are improved.
