Clearaudio has unveiled the Clearaudio N1 MM cartridge. The company says the new affordable cartridge is designed to “set a new standard in the class.” The Clearaudio N1 is housed in an anodized aluminum body and weighs 8 grams, making it suitable for both light and heavy tonearms.
The Clearaudio N1 cartridge features a convenient quick-change system for the stylus, allowing you to easily change it if needed without removing the cartridge. The Clearaudio N1 is now available in Europe in black or silver for a suggested retail price of 99 euros.
