Sumiko - Blue Point No. 3 Low
Sumiko - Blue Point No. 3 Low
Low Output Moving Coil Phono Cartridge
Blue Point No. 3 Low offers the smooth, sweet sonics of its high output brethren, but with an added degree refinement for owners of an MC phono stage. Significant reductions in moving mass and internal impedance are the result of far fewer turns of copper in the moving coil assembly. With greater stylus mobility and a shorter signal path, you gain improvements in detail retrieval, dynamics, air around instruments, resolution and transient attack.
- Refined Sound: This cartridge is praised for its smooth, sweet sonic presentation, delivering enhanced subtlety and nuances compared to its high-output counterpart.
- Detailed Retrieval: The low-output design allows for significant reductions in moving mass, resulting in improved detail retrieval, dynamics, and "air" around instruments.
- Warmth and Texture: Reviewers note a full and warm, yet defined and textured bass, natural midrange, and airy high frequencies.
- Construction: It features a nude-mounted 0.3 x 0.7 mil elliptical diamond stylus and an aluminum pipe cantilever for excellent energy transfer.
- Ease of Mounting: The redesigned housing includes threaded inserts and better stylus visibility, making installation simpler and more precise.
- Requirement: Due to its 0.5mV output voltage, it requires a dedicated MC-compatible phono preamp or a step-up transformer.
