Homogenix is a Polish maker of moving-coil phono cartridges, led by its president Miroslaw Piekut, that first showed its cartridges to the public at the 2024 edition of the Warsaw Audio Video Show. Its signature is a cartridge body cut from fir wood around 500 years old, enclosed in a perforated precious-metal shell.
Range & what it's known for
The range has four cartridges named after their shell finish. Black uses a ruthenium-plated brass shell and a boron cantilever, Silver a palladium-plated silver shell with boron, Gold a gold-plated 930 silver shell, and Blue, the top model, a patina-coated brass shell with a sapphire cantilever. All four use Micro Ridge styli. Black and Silver have cross-coil motors, while Gold and Blue use square-coil motors. Gold's wooden body is dated by the maker to 1512, and its coils are wound with 7N copper.
Who owns it and where it's made
Homogenix is a small independent Polish company. Construction and assembly are done in-house, including the generator parts that many cartridge makers buy in, while the laser-cut metal shells are made to order by a jeweller.
The lineup in this catalog
Phono cartridges. The catalog lists the Gold moving-coil model.
Who it's for
The cartridges are meant for vinyl listeners who see a cartridge as a finished object as well as a component. Black is the least expensive model, Silver and Gold sit between, and Blue tops the range.
