At Linn however, the word has unique connotations. Our sword is forged of boron, with a super-fine-line diamond tip. Our armour is nickel-coated, 7075-grade aluminium. Kendo is the eager apprentice to its master, Ekstatik; sharing the same values, and picking up many of its traits along the way.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKendo is the outcome of our engineers’ efforts to capitalise on the elements of Ekstatik which work so well; using our tried-and-true, trickle-down development methodology to produce a more affordable, high-performance cartridge which retains the same core design principles and acoustic fingerprint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKendo possesses a rigid, nickel-coated 7075-grade aluminium body. This specific grade of aluminium matches that of our Arko tonearm, for which Kendo was designed to be the perfect partner. This facilitates superb material synergy throughout the tonearm system, and effectively banishes unwanted resonances away from the delicate generator, along the arm, and out through the sub-chassis.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMoving coil (MC)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRigid, nickel-coated, 7075-grade aluminium body\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow-mass and stiff boron cantilever\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuper-fine-line stylus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAluminium-bronze threaded inserts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePerfectly paired with Arko tonearm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStylus Type\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSuper Fine Line\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCantilever\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBoron\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCoil Wire\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCopper 4N\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePin Connection Type\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e1.2mm gold pin\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMounting Points\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e3\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOutput Voltage\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e0.45mV @3.54cm\/s\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChannel Balance at 1 kHz\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u0026lt; 1dB\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChannel Separation at 1kHz\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u0026gt; 28dB\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLoad Resistance\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e100Ω\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLoad Capacitance`\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e1nF\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracking Force\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e2.0g\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCartridge Mass\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e7.6 g\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Linn","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44609429569578,"sku":null,"price":5995.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0548\/9645\/9818\/files\/linn-kendo-moving-coil-cartridge.webp?v=1784814182","url":"https:\/\/gc-hifi.com.au\/products\/linn-kendo-moving-coil-cartridge","provider":"GC Hifi","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
