Tracking Distortion
The distortion is reduced to as much as 1/3 or ¼
in the critical treble range.
In addition, the usual increases of distortion with
diminishing groove radius is virtually eliminated.
• Transient Reproduction
Because of improved contact of the pickup stylus with
the record groove, more natural reproduction is achieved
even with transient signals.
• Frequency Response
The frequency response remains constant, i.e., practically
no wavelength losses are registered in the audio range
as the groove radius is decreasing.
These improved characteristics result
from the special stylus contour. The radius of the pickup
stylus and groove wall is approx. 6µm.
The contact area has simultaneously
been enlarged compared to that of the 15µm stylus.
In addition to higher quality reproduction, therefore,
gentle tracking of the record groove is insured.
Improvements in recording techniques
of the past few years (e.g., the TELDEC DMM process)
may thus be fully appreciated during reproduction.
Other characteristic data, including
the tracking force (normally25mN), have not been changed
compared with the former model. As a result, the tracking
force remains optimally matched to the compliance and
the effective stylus mass. No mechanical or electrical
read-justment is required when cartridge are exchanged.
