MICHELL CUSIS E/H

HIGH OUTPUT MOVING COIL CARTRIDGE


The Cusis E/H is the high output variant of our highly acclaimed Cusis E cartridge, allowing it to now be used with MM phono stages. The entry point to our moving coil cartridge range, this stunning cartridge gives great detail and musicality, and never detracts from the music.

All of Michell's Cusis cartridges share the same moving coil design. At the heart of the cartridge is a samarium-cobalt magnet which is combined with pure iron to create a very stable magnetic field within the cartridge.


30μ pure copper wire is used to precision wind the cartridge coils onto an ultra-lightweight armature, which is mounted onto a specially designed damper.


The damper has been specifically designed to give the stylus assembly the perfect support, which ensures the stylus tracks the groove precisely.

The number of coils, resultant output and body material, have all been optimised for each model’s stylus assembly, to give the best possible audio output.


The construction of the cartridge has been carefully designed to eliminate vibration and resonance. The aluminium chassis is designed to absorb unwanted vibration and give a rigid platform to mount the cartridge parts.


The body materials, shapes and exterior patterns have also been designed to further reduce vibration and resonance, resulting in truly unrivalled levels of detail and neutrality.
