Sumiko Olympia MM Cartridge
Read Test - click it!
Verdict: "The Dire Straits recording sounded even livelier and more vibrant, and the rhythm guitar was given more stature, allowing for a better balanced overall sound. Imaging remained precise, but there was more musical information to fill in the overall picture, making for a more wholesome, and more realistic sound."

Divinely inspired
Building on the Rainier, the Olympia features an improved cantilever assembly that reduces moving mass, resulting in smoother groove tracking, more nuance and an extended frequency response. The slightly reduced power output compared to the Rainier reduces noise in an already quiet design, improving imaging and delivering a realism rarely found in this class of cartridge.
Handmade in Japan
From Oyster to Reference, every Sumiko pickup is handcrafted in Yokohama, Japan - near the waters where the eponymous oysters live. Sumiko selects the finest materials by ear, which together produce a performance that has enlightened generations of listeners. Each design is thoroughly tested until perfect. Production is then carried out by world-class craftsmen with a shared eye for precision and quality.
Suitable for light and medium-heavy tonearms. Upgrade with a stylus Moonstone, Wellfleet or Amethyst. Can be used with a Stylus RS78 to play shellac records.
