After years of development, they are proud to introduce an all-new integrated body and generator system that significantly reduces internal resonances. With the ability to change to the Olympia or Moonstone stylus allows for upgrades with out replacing the entire cartridge.
Entering the analog world ahead of the game Sumiko's Rainier phono cartridge provides one of the the best performance-to-cost ratios available today. Mounting the Rainier on any modern low-mass tonearm will catapult you to the front lines of analog performance without braking the bank.
The next time I’m on the lookout for a new cartridge, the Sumiko Rainier will be on my short list. It should be on yours.
