About the PC-1 Supreme
The Air Tight PC-1 Supreme is a premium Moving Coil (MC) phono cartridge renowned for its exceptional sound quality. It features an epoch-making Hi-µ core material SH-µX, which enhances magnetic circuit efficiency. The cartridge boasts a low internal impedance of 1 ohm, achieved through the use of thick wires that reduce coil windings. This design results in an expanded bandwidth and dynamic range, offering a clearer, life-like soundstage with improved transient and phase characteristics. It is particularly noted for its ability to reproduce ultra-heavy bass with high resolution. The stylus is made of a 1mm-square diamond tip with a 3 x 30um semi-line contact, providing superb trackability and reduced tracing distortion. The cartridge weighs 12 grams and requires a stylus pressure of 1.9 to 2.2 grams. It is priced at USD 12,975.
