ABOUT
The Clearaudio Essence MC has been discontinued. Please browse Clearaudio's wide selection of other phono cartridges.
The Essence MC incorporates the same aluminum-magnesium alloy with ceramic surface layer body material as our high-end daVinci MC and elevates our Concept MC generator design to new levels, applying even tighter specifications to every parameter. The boron cantilever, micro-line stylus and moving coil generator have been subjected to the most stringent scrutiny, ensuring superb dynamics, fine resolution and channel matching of greater than 0.5dB. Designed to match most MC phono stages, the Essence MC delivers natural tonality, three-dimensional sound-staging, vivid dynamics and captivating musicality.
