About the 501 III
The Shelter 501 III (also listed as 501 MkIII) is a low-output moving-coil phono cartridge in Shelter’s Legendary Line. It is described as a refined version of the 501 series, using an aluminum-clad boron cantilever and elliptical diamond stylus for a balanced, smooth, and highly musical presentation. It is commonly positioned for mid-priced turntables and tonearms, and is known for strong imaging, warm tonal balance, and easy trackability.
