Sumiko Rainer Cartridge
The first offering in the new Oyster line-up is the venerable Rainer, which continues the Pearl’s legacy for smooth, natural sound reproduction.
After years of development, Sumiko are proud to introduce an all-new integrated body and generator system that significantly reduces internal resonances.
With the ability to change to the Olympia or Moonstone stylus allows for upgrades with out replacing the entire cartridge.
Sumiko's Oyster MM Cartridges
the Oyster Series cartridges have established themselves as smooth, warm and refined alternatives to more aggressive-sounding options. They are meticulously crafted with premium materials, enabling highly musical, poised and polished sonics that steer clear of listening fatigue.
An integrated body and generator system stifles internal resonance and readily transfers uncontrolled energy from the cartridge to the tonearm where it is dissipated harmlessly. This reduces distortion and coloration, leaving you with pure analog fidelity that conveys the emotional message embedded in your music.
Handmade in Japan
Each Sumiko phono cartridge is hand-assembled by the world-class cartridge makers at Excel Sound in Yokohama, Japan – a relationship Sumiko has proudly maintained for nearly forty years.
Using only the finest materials that combine to deliver performance that has enlightened generations of listeners, each design is thoroughly auditioned until it meets their stringent standards for sound.
Production is then executed by expert craftsmen with a collective eye for precision and quality. The result is a family of cartridges that render emotion through tonally balanced, refined and fatigueless analog.
