Cardas Heart Myrtle Cartridge
A well seasoned cartridge performs well at a high input impedance of 47 k, if the system is quiet. A lower impedance of 500-1.5 k works if the system tends to hum or the cartridge is not broken-in. This cartridge has a standard output of 0.38 mv, which is within the capability of most modern high quality pre-amps.
The character of the Cardas Myrtle is lasting musicality. It is a well engineered, strong, majestic piece that brings the lasting luxury of full, warm music.
