The JICO Seto-Hori is a distinctive moving coil cartridge combining traditional Japanese ceramic craftsmanship with advanced audio engineering. Its handcrafted housing uses Seto ceramic and natural walnut wood to help minimise unwanted vibration. A Micro Ridge diamond stylus and a lightweight, rigid boron cantilever provide precise groove tracking and accurate retrieval of recorded detail. With a relatively high output voltage of 2.0 mV, the Seto-Hori also offers greater flexibility than many conventional low-output MC cartridges.
