Lightweight MC equipped with proprietary wood composite and pure copper coil
Clear sound and detailed expression created by the proprietary wood composite.
Description
Product Concept
In AIDAS's "COPPER (CU) Series," the model that pursues a balance between versatility and musicality is the "WOOD COMPOSITE."The body material is a composite made of wood flour and special bonding resin, which is as hard as stone, highly resistant to chemicals and moisture, suppresses unnecessary resonance, and achieves a lightweight finish of 8.8g.

Main Features
-
Hybrid Wood Body: Fusion of natural wood resonance and rigidity
Using a composite that enhances rigidity through engineering while utilizing the qualities of natural wood. It provides rich tonal colors while reproducing a well-defined soundstage down to the finest details. -
Pure Copper Coil × Alnico 5: Ultimate freshness in music reproduction
Uses the 6N pure copper coil common to the series. With the shortest signal path design, it extracts the original energy of analog sound without losing sound freshness. -
Double Suspension: Excellent tracking ability
AIDAS's proprietary suspension structure accurately traces the amplitude of complex grooves, providing a low-distortion, stable sound.
AIDAS: Mounting Style and Compatibility
-
Bolt-On Thread Method
The AIDAS cartridge body features precise threading (M2.5). It can be mounted neatly with just a top bolt without using a nut, greatly reducing installation stress when handling expensive cartridges. -
Half-Inch Mount
Uses the global standard 12.7mm screw hole pitch. Compatible with head shells from various manufacturers, making it a highly versatile design. -
Optimization for Tonearms
The balance of self-weight and appropriate tracking force is optimized to maximize AIDAS's original performance on many of today's "medium-mass tonearms." -
24K Gold-Plated Pin
Uses output pins with 24K gold plating on a brass base. Highly resistant to oxidation over time and maintains signal clarity at the contact points with the lead wires for a long period.
