Yamamoto Sound Craft titanium head shell

HS-5,HS-5S is a new head shell using high strength and relatively light metal titanium material.

The material is a high-purity titanium material with a bitter gray appearance and is light and strong, making it the most promising head shell material among metallic materials. Titanium has a specific gravity of 4.5 and about half of the brass, and its strength is so hard that it does not pull even steel, so it is used in various tools recently. Of course, because it is used in the acoustic direction and the vibrating plate of the horn driver, the merit of the sound quality surface is large. Titanium is also famous as a difficult material to process, and I think the company has started adopting it in the head shell.

The HS-5 is with standard shell lead wire, and the HS-5S is soldered directly with 6N copper wire on the connector part. HS-5S 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 including lead wire is 18.4 g. It is a little heavy, but unlike carbon fiber, the unique weight feeling and strength of metal are attractive. Also titanium lightweight typeHS-6You can also enjoy using them.

Magazine Evaluation

The edges of the sound are clear and all come out in front. It is also tonic of the system because it claims to be zubazuba. The base is low and thick. I want to listen to music and get high, so this is the best. However, there may be some opinion that it is too colorful. In any case, it will stand at the opposite point of the line that respects the dignity of Asada Sakura Tsuge.
