The Xpression cartridge fills the gap between SPU type cartridges and High-End cartridges such as the MC A90 and MC Windfeld designed to be mounted on the head shell.
Tracking capability at 315 Hz and a recommended tracking force of 80 μm.
Compliance, dynamic, lateral 11 μm/mN.
Type: Specially polished Nude Ortofon Replicant 100 on diamond console.
The radius of the touch pen tip r/R 5/100 μm.
DESCRIPTION
The Xpression cartridge bridges the gap between the SPU-type cartridges and High-End cartridges like the MC A90 and the MC Windfeld designed for headshell mounting.
The result is a high-performance moving coil cartridge with the convenience of a standard headshell connector, which provides a simple and elegant method of directly connecting the generator and tonearm via the Xpression's one-piece body.
Elegant design without compromise
Accuracy level
The Xpression, although derived from the materials and techniques employed with the A90 cartridge, finds a superb sonic balance between the literal precision of the A90 and the powerful dynamics and fluid body of its SPU predecessors.
Because of the nature of SLM-based construction, each cartridge body is cosmetically unique and will show small dimples or lines under close examination.
Ortofon Replicant 100
Stylus
The Xpression features an ultra-fine and extra polished version of the unique Ortofon Replicant 100 stylus on Boron Cantilever. The Replicant 100 is also used in the MC A90, MC Windfeld, MC Anna, and MC Cadenza Bronze cartridges, providing more responsive and transparent sound reproduction.
One of the preconditions for linear reproduction with a wide frequency range and optimal tracking performance is a diamond - the shape of which is as close as possible to the original cutting needle.
This diamond is incredibly small and light but has an extraordinarily large vertical contact surface despite its minimal radius of rounding. Correctly fitted at a vertical angle of 23 degrees, an Ortofon Replicant Stylus 100 will read the musical information in the grooves of a record with a greater degree of accuracy than any other kind of needle.
Benefits of high-end materials
Cartridge body
By combining the utilization of this SLM process and our WRD system, we are confident that the perfect mechanical integration of this cartridge with your tonearm will result in a significant and breathtaking increase in dynamics, staging, resolution, and richness. Ultrahigh purity silver is used for the internal wiring between the generator and the standard headshell connector.
Finally, the bottom cover has been constructed from a special proprietary TPE (Thermo-Plastic Elastomer) material, which provides extremely high damping. You simply experience more drama and greater breadth, height, and depth in the sound scenario.
