The success of Zeus cartridge delighted our designers and engineers, but the accolades also tormented them. Had they done their utmost? The answer is yes. However, with greater experience, more time, and an unlimited budget\u2026 this possibility transformed their torment into an obsession. They spared no expense in sourcing top-quality materials, repeatedly designing, prototyping, testing, and listening. The cartridge itself will be carved from stone\u2014black onyx. The boron cantilever will be set with natural diamonds (not lab-grown), with a clarity of VVS1, three to four grades clearer than typical engagement ring diamonds, so rare and expensive that most jewelry retailers are unwilling to sell them. The wires and coils are made of top-grade copper, and the leads are plated with 24K pure gold.<\/p>\n
The result was the groundbreaking Apollo dynamic phono cartridge. This true masterpiece of the sun god transcends limits: presenting richer details, more transparent layers, more refined texture, a wider soundstage, and more abundant musicality. The sound interpreted by Apollo is crystal clear, without any mist or haze. Every note is sharp, crisp, and pure, full of rich texture and authority. Louis Armstrong’s powerfully husky voice will be presented in a completely new way. Its fidelity is astonishing: can Apollo distinguish the differences in the wood of an acoustic guitar? The answer is yes\u2014we can hear the tonal variations of cedar, rosewood, and spruce.<\/p>\n
