Additional Info

The Glanz G-60, built on an MF moving flux generator of the MM family, speaks with a warm, forgiving voice. Vocals sit natural and full-bodied, never etched or fatiguing, while the nude elliptical stylus on a tapered cantilever pulls out fine detail and a stable, well-focused stage without turning bright. Bass stays present rather than lean, kind to jazz, vocal records and imperfect pressings alike. The stylus carries the M-60 designation and swaps as an insert.
