10XA-H: The Legendary High Output MC Cartridge

Dynavector's unique coil winding technology made high output MC cartridges possible. By winding an ultra-fine wire many times around the coil bobbin, the phono cartridge can retain a healthy 2.8mV output, eliminating the need for a head amplifier or a step-up transformer. It retains the sonic advantages of an MC cartridge while offering the ease of use of an MM cartridge.
Recommended load impedance is 1,000Ω or higher.
Connection to a PHONO input in MM position (47KΩ load) is also possible.

Shibata Type III Stylus for Exceptional High Frequency Performance

To meet the demands of today's wide range analog playback systems, the 10XA features a Shibata Type III stylus, known for its superior high-frequency response. The cantilever is made from lightweight, rigid aluminum pipe. This improves groove tracking significantly, enabling higher resolution playback.
