(1)
Vertical tracking angle of 20 degree is IEC/DIN standard.
(2)
PCOCC = Pure Copper by Ohno Continuous Casting process.
(3)
When head amplifier connected.
(4)
The abbreviation mil is equal a thousandth of an inch - mil = 0,001 inch = 0,0254 mm = 25,4 mm
(5)
Due to high output voltage this moving coil cartridge can be used directly in MM phono inputs without the use of a step-up transformer.
(6)
When connected to the MC input of a transformer-less phono pre-amp, choose a lower gain position due to the high output voltage (1.2 mV).
