4.0 mV output
The newly redesigned Master1 and Reference1 cartridges have had their coil design reconfigured, and the effective moving mass of their generating system has been reduced by 17%. All this is hand-assembled within a machined, new processed, Australian Jarrah wood housing. The Master1 and Reference1 models use a five piece OTL cantilever technology achieving an additional 5% tip mass reduction over the Platinum1 and Sonata1 models. The coils are wound with ultra-high purity long crystal (UHPLC) oxygen free copper wire. The Master1 model is mounted with Grado's specially designed nude elliptical diamond, and the Reference1 model uses Grado's true ellipsoid design diamond.
What People are saying about the Master...
"Female voices have at last found a cartridge that flatters. Soloists, duets, choirs; it doesn't matter; the Grado won't shatter."
"The current Grado may represent a new performance plateau. It's the best moving iron cartridge I've ever heard, and it's making a stir among those who know."
Positive Feedback / Charles Hollander Vol.8, No.1
"The sound on the Master seems to emerge from a velvety silence... I found the Master open, airy and great on the timbral transients. The air and soundstaging on the Master was almost shocking."
