Benz Micro Ebony HS

Brand: Benz Micro

The Benz Micro Ebony HS is a high-end phono cartridge designed specifically for use with moving-coil (MC) turntables. It features a unique cantilever and stylus combination made from ebony wood, which contributes to its exceptional tracking ability and low noise floor. The HS in the name stands for Hyper-Resolution, referring to its high level of resolution and detail retrieval, making it a favorite among audiophiles seeking the most lifelike and immersive sound possible. The Benz Micro Ebony HS is also known for its excellent frequency response, low distortion, and low-output impedance, making it a versatile and reliable choice for any MC phono stage. The cartridge requires a matching transformer or step-up amplifier to convert its low-level signal into a line-level output suitable for connecting to a preamp or integrated amplifier.
