The Sumiko Olympia delivers enhanced detail, low noise and natural musicality. Hand-crafted in Japan with full stylus interchangeability. Read more.
The Sumiko Olympia Phono Cartridge represents a refined advancement over the Rainier, introducing an upgraded low-mass cantilever assembly for more agile groove tracing, enhanced nuance and wider frequency response. Its slightly reduced output lowers the noise floor even further, resulting in improved imaging accuracy and a natural, lifelike musical presentation rarely found in this price category.
Part of Sumiko’s latest Oyster series, Olympia is engineered to deliver honest tonality, controlled resonance behaviour and clear spatial definition. Its carefully constructed housing disperses unwanted vibrations, enabling effortless transparency and precise reproduction of vocal textures, harmonics and instrumental decay. The result is an engaging and balanced sound signature that excels across genres.
A major advantage is the fully modular upgrade path shared by Rainier, Olympia, Moonstone and Wellfleet. All styli are interchangeable, allowing listeners to tailor their sonic preferences without replacing the cartridge body. Hand-crafted in Yokohama, Japan, Olympia combines meticulous craftsmanship with musical finesse, offering long-term reliability and a consistently compelling listening experience.
