ZYX Ultimate 4D
World First C-1000 Carbon Cantilever in Moving Coil Cartridge
The ZYX Ultimate series (100, Airy, 4D, OMEGA and DYNAMIC) use a carbon cantilever for the very first time in a moving coil cartridge. The carbon rod is made from 1000 pieces of composite carbon fiber, hence the name C-1000 carbon cantilever.
This composite carbon fiber is more rigid than aluminum, iron and titanium. In addition, its specific gravity is just half that of boron. Therefore we can be sure that the C-1000 carbon cantilever is the ultimate and ideal cantilever material for analogue record playback.
The carbon cantilever gives the widest frequency range and a superior tracking performance. A further major benefit is that the mechanical sound signal picked up at the stylus can travel through to the coil in a straight and direct fashion by way of the 1000 pieces of mechanical carbon lines. This ensures that reflected, repeated or modulated mechanical sound signals are completely absent. The overall result is that you will enjoy some of the finest, most natural, most dynamic and true to source sound available.
Cartridge Case For REAL STEREO
The Non metallic body has two kinds of hard material to prevent external disturbances from influencing the generator system and also it prevents eddy currents inside the case from effecting the generator output signal and resonances occurring on the body surfaces.
Super High speed reproduction engine
This circuit is specially designed to null magnetic resistance within the magnetic gap, and enables high speed power generation of signals over the entire bandwidth without time delay. This circuit can also instantly and perfectly eliminate any remaining eddy currents.
Micro-Ridge Stylus
The stylus used in the Ultimate series has the edges of the diamond shank set parallel to the sides of the cantilever. Using this type of stylus, the hardest axis of the crystal is aligned to act as the contact point with the record groove. This gives stable and smooth tracing and produces a very refined sound, with the additional benefit of giving the stylus an extended life of approximately 2000 hours.
The stylus is of the Micro-ridge type, which was originally developed in Japan and offers the highest performance. The contact radius is always 3μm by the ridge made with 6μm thickness.
Pure 6N OFC Crystal Copper Wire Generator Coils
This perfect crystal copper wire produced by special process, in order to achieve an even sound balance across the entire audible range.
