Moving Magnet Cartridges
Moving Magnet Cartridges are a type of audio cartridge used in turntables to convert the mechanical vibrations of a vinyl record into electrical signals. They contain a small magnet attached to a stylus, which moves within a coil of wire as the stylus tracks the grooves of the record. This movement generates an electrical current that is then amplified to produce sound.
These cartridges are popular for their warm sound quality and relatively low cost. They are easy to replace and maintain, making them a favorite among both beginners and experienced audiophiles. Overall, moving magnet cartridges offer a balance of performance and affordability in the world of vinyl playback.
