Weighing 16.8 grams, this headshell is particularly suited to high-quality MM and MC cartridges and tonearms capable of balancing its mass correctly. The generous mounting range assists with accurate cartridge positioning and overhang adjustment.

Before ordering, confirm that your tonearm accepts a detachable headshell with a bayonet connection. When balancing the tonearm, allow for the 16.8-gram headshell weight plus the weight of the cartridge. The tonearm counterweight must support this combined mass. Connect the colour-coded lead wires before fully securing the cartridge, then align the cartridge accurately and reset the tracking force and anti-skating.
