Reduce to the maximum

"Take the best and make it better"… sometimes the Clearaudio motto proves to be quite a challenge. Especially when it calls for a brand new cartridge design that will improve upon the entry-level concept MC cartridge but without breaking a key price point!

How was it done? By taking the 'essence' of the concept MC design and applying even tighter controls to every element of its construction. The boron cantilever, the micro-line stylus and of course the Clearaudio-patented moving coil generator have been subjected to the most stringent scrutiny, thus ensuring superb dynamics, fine resolution and channel matching of better than 0.5dB.

The electrical parameters are such that the Essence MC will match with almost any MC phono stage, guaranteeing superb results: natural tonality, three-dimensional sound-staging, vivid dynamics and captivating musicality.
