Brand: Benz Micro
Benz Micro's MC (moving coil) and M2 (moving iron) cartridges are high-end phono pickups designed for use with turntables. The MC cartridge uses a magnet and a coil of fine wire to convert the mechanical energy of the record grooves into a small electrical signal that can be amplified and played back through a phono stage. The M2 cartridge, on the other hand, uses a small magnet attached to the cantilever and a piece of soft iron suspended within the cartridge body to create the electrical signal. Both the MC and M2 cartridges are renowned for their high accuracy, low noise, and ability to extract fine details from the vinyl grooves. The Benz Micro MC and M2 cartridges are considered some of the best in the world and are often paired with high-end turntables and phono stages to achieve the ultimate audio performance.
