The Clearaudio Maestro V2 Ebony phono cartridge is our best-selling MM cartridge for over a decade. What distinguishes the Maestro and makes it unique is the high quality line contact diamond stylus and boron cantilever, parts commonly found on top Moving Coil cartridges. In conjunction with the resonance optimized Ebony wood body and efficient generator, you get the best of all sonic worlds.
Detail, resolution, and trackability combine with a natural tonal balance and a mid-hall perspective. The high output level allows use directly into MM type phono stages creating accurate dynamic swings and visceral slam. A wide and tall soundstage with specific focus draws you into the musical performance. The Maestro V2 Ebony is a favorite match for the Concept with Satisfy Black tonearm.
