S.A.S. Chip

The tip is finished with precision in a few microns.

The shape is micro-ridge.Traditionally it achieves a micro-curved radius that was not possible with this shape of chip.

The chip is also used to process the highest quality polishing technology used by world-renowned manufacturers to ensure the accuracy of the record groove for a long time.

Boron Cantilever

By using the cantilever of mineral material, it cuts out unnecessary movement.Transmits vibrations in the record groove without dampening

Detailed internal structure

We use our proprietary method "One Point Tension Wire System".

It is a special structure that supports the cantilever at one point like a mobile in order to reproduce vibrations that are transmitted to the needle tip without missing.

Ordinary cantilevers do not have this system, so they will accept vibrations throughout the cantilever.

Special Shaped Magnet

In order to maximize the performance of the One Point Tension Wire System, we mount a special shaped magnet in the center of the cantilever with no standard record needles.

About the tone of the SAS hands

Boron features a warm sound like analog

It is good for making delicate sounds, so you can enjoy it in a variety of genres, such as classic and jazz.

(The chips and cantilevers are also very delicate, so it is not suitable for DJ use such as scratches.

Thank you for your understanding. )
