Description
The exterior design of the matt stainless steel body signals close kinship with MC Jubilee.
Featuring a slim-line nude FG 80 diamond mounted on a ruby cantilever, Kontrapunkt b delivers a lively, airy upper frequency range with richly etched detail to bring out the subtlest overtones. The bass has weight with resolution and authority that make the cartridge suitable for large-scale works of all genres.
