The Vessel R3SS Phono Cartridge
THE VESSEL R3SS CARTRIDGE
- So much more than just music.
With its hardness and soundspeed, Ruby has far higher sensitivity to stimuli from groove modulations. The refined cylindrical Ruby cantilever in the R3SS discovers and transmits more material from groove modulations, more energy sheltered within record grooves thus conveying more inspired sentience and realism. In combination with its Nude Super Shibata diamond tip, the R3SS delivers immersion in the music's complex texture, dynamism and stellar liquidity and transparency.
