About the Eminent EX
Designed by master cartridge maker Yoshio Matsudaira, the My Sonic Lab Eminent EX utilizes the proprietary SH-μX magnetic core with higher permeability and flux density than typical MC cartridges. This allows fewer coil windings, minimizing signal loss, internal distortion, and phase distortion, resulting in wide dynamic range, fast transient response, low distortion, and high signal-to-noise ratio. The cartridge features an Extra Super Duralumin A7075 alloy body with ion surface hardening treatment, a Super Duralumin cantilever, and a semi-line contact stylus. It has an ultra low internal impedance of approximately 0.9 to 1.0 ohm and a relatively high output voltage of 0.4mV, enabling powerful and natural sound reproduction with great microdetail and clarity. Recommended tracking force is 1.9-2.2 grams, with recommended loading between 100-800 ohms (ideal around 400 ohms). The cartridge weighs 9.5 grams and is praised for its groove-friendly, real-world performance combining deep bass, rich mids, and refined highs.
