Precision Moving Coil Engineering

The High Output model (2.8 mV) can be connected directly to most MM phono inputs, allowing many listeners to experience Moving Coil performance without changing the existing setup.

With a standard weight of 5.8g and compatibility with many modern tonearms, ASKA pairs well with a wide range of turntables including popular models such as Rega Planar 3 and Technics SL-1200.

A threaded mounting design also makes installation straightforward, helping new MC users set up their system with confidence.

Dynavector’s Analogue Expertise

From component manufacturing to final assembly, production is carried out in Japan. By working closely with highly skilled domestic partners and trusted suppliers, Dynavector maintains careful oversight of quality at every stage of the process.

Developed through collaboration between Dynavector engineers and one of our long-standing manufacturing partners, the Special Annealing Process refines the magnetic properties of critical metal components, contributing to cleaner signal generation and more natural musical detail.

Each cartridge is individually inspected and adjusted, ensuring that every ASKA delivers the clarity, balance, and musical expression that defines the Dynavector sound.

Free Turntable setup

We carefully set up every turntable and cartridge we sell. So if you're new to turntables or have decades of experience, you know you'll be getting the most enjoyment from your system. You can be safe in the knowledge that you can take your turntable home, plug it straight in and start enjoying good music without any worry of something being setup incorrectly.
