Head shell with high strength and light carbon fiber

Description

The characteristic of carbon fiber is its high rigidity, which is about twice that of steel, and its weight is about 1/5 of steel. In the HS-4,HS-4S, the carbon fiber was molded in a thick size of 5mm, and the head shell was finished with high strength. The most important material of the head shell is its light weight, high strength and low resonance. Carbon fiber is the best material to meet all these conditions.
High speed, powerful, high level, high amount of information, vivid reproduction, clear and clear tone may improve the sound of the familiar cartridge one rank!

The HS-4 is with standard shell lead wire, and the HS-4S is a type with 6N copper wire soldered directly to the connector part. HS-4S can not exchange shell lead, but there is a sound quality merit by reducing one contact point to pass through, greatly improving the freshness of the sound.


The finish weight of the lead wire is about 11 g, and it meets ideal conditions as a head shell with light weight and high rigidity. Generally, the lighter the weight of the tone arm, including the cartridge and the head shell, the higher the motion sensitivity, so it contributes to the improvement of information volume. In addition, the company's weight adjustment washerWA-1The weight balance can be adjusted more easily by using.

Review
Compared to the wooden shell, I felt like I was getting dead, rounding up the afterglow of the reverberation and digging up record information. The number of sounds is the highest ever. There are also fine sounds and nuances. It is a good high-grade speaker feel of S/N that suppresses the sound of the enclosure.

Getting the azimuth just right

Getting the azimuth just right is tough because tightening it up with the hex key moves it out of alignment! But after a few goes with the help of a bubble level it's possible to get it just right. The supplied leads are on the thin side but the shell itself is very beautiful and well made.
