Features

The SPU Meister Silver G MkII has been improved on coil winding material, stylus, and magnet. The cartridge has been outfitted with high purity multi-conductor 6-nines Silver wire (of a purity of 99.9999 %) for a more open and revealing high-end presentation.

The nude elliptical stylus tip mass has been decreased by a factor of more than 50%, resulting in increased tracking ability and reproduction of microdynamic detail. The generator system has been revised to produce a slightly higher output to ensure compatibility with a wider range of moving coil transformers and active MC preamplifiers.

My new reference stereo SPU

Almost from the very start, once I got this new analog chain of mine rigged up, I was impressed. There were expressive dynamics on acoustic music of all kinds, pleasing tails of decay, and a rhythmic pulse of force and momentum that gave me a gut feeling from the music.

The Meister Silver G MkII SPU, on the other hand, can reach far more deeply into the higher registers and present the lower with more punch and clarity. Female vocals, violins, cymbals, trumpets, brass and woodwinds of all kinds are rendered with a special quality of realism and immediacy.
