About the Aida
The Soundsmith Aida is a high-output moving iron (MI) phono cartridge, hand-built in New York State, designed for audiophiles seeking top-tier performance without the price of premium moving coil (MC) cartridges. It features a unique Optimized Contour Line (OCL) nude diamond stylus and a single crystal ruby cantilever, engineered to track even the most challenging inner grooves with precision and confidence. The Aida delivers a wide, deep soundstage, excellent instrument separation, and dynamic, detailed sound that rivals more expensive MC designs. It is compatible with a wide range of tonearms and standard MM phono stages, and is also available in a dual-coil mono version.
