Gold Note Donatello Red MC-pickup

INSPIRED BY A CHALLENGE The main design behind the new Donatello MC cartridge was to engineer the best sounding cartridge of its category enabling a solid machined aluminium body, light enough to be handled by every tone-arms. The results exceeded expectations! After two years of continuous research, here is Donatello: a sophisticated, computer designed body made of machined aluminium. Weighing only 7gram, it's perfectly damped to help the cantilever achieve the best tracking ability. Donatello's ultra rigid cantilever handles a high precision Micro Elliptical diamond exclusively developed in collaboration with Adamant-Namiki and designed for top audio performance. EMPOWERED BY TECHNOLOGY As our flagship cartridges, Donatello's diamond tip is mechanically inserted and blocked into a long, stiffened aluminium cantilever, handled in a special titanium telescopic seat to increase structural rigidity. Like Gold Note top class models, Donatello features long gold-plated pin connectors designed to connect perfectly with arm cinches, reducing energy dispersion and improving grounding for an ideal music background that will let you enjoy even the smaller details of your music. Donatello Red features high internal impedance & gain levels, so that it can be easily matched with MM phono preamp.
