AVID Reference Ruby MC Cartridge

AVID Reference Ruby MC Cartridge

Solid Ruby Cantilever - As the name implies the cantilever is solid Ruby with a Micro-Ridge diamond stylus.

The cartridge body is designed and manufactured by AVID and encapsulates components usually unsupported, resulting in less internal resonance and much attention has been paid to energy transfer.

For twenty-five years AVID has pushed the envelope of vinyl reproduction, its turntables now renowned throughout the audio industry and discerning music lovers the world over.

Their Reference Ruby cartridge is the first of three low output moving coil cartridges to be released and has been designed from the ground up, with every element individually assessed and then as a whole.

The moving mass has been reduced with less coil windings to improve dynamics, but the output is a healthy 0.32mV due to the enlarged magnet assembly. Overall mass is 9.1grms
