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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nKendo 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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nKendo 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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\nHigh-performance moving coil cartridge\u003cbr\u003e\n\nStylus Type\tSuper Fine Line\u003cbr\u003e\nCantilever\tBoron\u003cbr\u003e\nCoil Wire\tCopper 4N\u003cbr\u003e\nPin Connection Type\t1.2mm gold pin\u003cbr\u003e\nMounting Points\t3\u003cbr\u003e\nOutput Voltage\t0.45mV @3.54cm\/s\u003cbr\u003e\nChannel Balance at 1 kHz\t less than 1dB\u003cbr\u003e\nChannel Separation at 1kHz\t\u0026gt; 28dB\u003cbr\u003e\nLoad Resistance\t100Ω\u003cbr\u003e\nLoad Capacitance \t1nF\u003cbr\u003e\nTracking Force\t2.0g\u003cbr\u003e\nCartridge Mass\t7.6 g","brand":"Linn","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57415672398156,"sku":"LINNKENDOMC","price":2566.67,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1053\/6891\/2204\/files\/Linn-Kendo-MC-side.jpg?v=1777557042","url":"https:\/\/www.stoneaudio.co.uk\/products\/linn-kendo-mc-cartridge","provider":"Stone Audio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
