Open Box Item, still brand new! Save 20% on this Open Box Clearaudio Talismann MC Cartridge! Only 1 available at this price! Fully warranty included!

Simple, Elegant, Great

Due to its patented symmetrical arrangement of eight magnets and 24-carat gold wire coils the new Talisman V2 redefines the performance available at this price level and reveals the sonic potential of the second generation 'V2' series of Clearaudio moving coil cartridges.

The legendary combination of a rigid boron cantilever and Micro HD diamond stylus extract even the finest details stored in the record's groove both effortlessly and meticulously to deliver an unprecedented performance. The 10.8-gram hand-polished ebony body not only impresses with its discreet elegance, but also contributes to the clear, captivating sound of this cartridge by perfectly suppressing resonances.

...one beautiful-sounding pickup, with a gorgeous midrange and bottom end, solid in all sense of the word, superb definition and clarity, and lots of heft.
