Introducing the E.A.T Jo No.5 cartridge, crafted for exceptional sonic performance and stunning aesthetics with its mint green exterior, delivering an immersive presentation that lives up to the quality expected of E.A.T.

Both the cartridge body and stylus guard are made of polyamide, chosen for its high wear resistance and rigidity, which contribute to the improved performance of the cartridge, and ensuring the audio signal being sent through the remaining system is as sonically perfect as possible.

This is E.A.T.'s second cartridge creation, following the highly acclaimed and successful Yosegi MC. A sophisticated masterpiece both in terms of sonic performance and visual appeal featuring a Nude Fine Line Stylus shape, the Jo No.5 is designed to extract high levels of detail from the record groove, offering a truthful yet surprisingly musical reproduction of both old and new vinyl. Furthermore, with an aluminium cantilever, the Jo No.5 is highly rigid and capable of withstanding the demands of the record groove.

The manufacturing process includes the use of selective laser sintering, which involves fusing together thin layers of polyamide powder to construct the final structure, the result is a durable cartridge body that offers great levels of resistance against unwanted resonances. True to E.A.T. style, the bright mint green finish sported by the outer body of the, gives the Jo No 5 a distinct, elegant appearance.
